Pain and Happiness

It’s the way of life.
Never once has it been fair.
Now tell me why’s that?

We may sit and ponder,
Always begging for answers 
But no one is there.

The pain we have to feel
Can be so unbearable 
That we just can’t take it.

Sometimes it’s so painful,
That we end up going numb.
But don’t pretend to get used to it.

You know that it still lingers,
Hiding under the surface
Waiting for your joy to appear.

And joy means happiness.
And happiness brings the pain.
They truly go hand and hand with one another.

Now don’t get me wrong.
You will be happy.
Truly unimaginably happy,
For so long.

But unfortunately, It never lasts.
No matter how hard we try.
The pain that follows,
Is never that far behind.

Who Am I

Am I             
 
        A past conditioning, well-etched in my mind, my very being, 
 
      Shall I say a hope, a future reconstruction?  
     Always envisioning, but never realizing, desires that cannot become what they are meant to be. 
 
  Those who continue to change will together create such memories, hopes and desires into unimaginably wonderful works of art and all feelings will bond together forever. 
 
    I wish to be the work of art that will satisfy myself in the end. So even when I still bring out the colours, the true picture of me is still forming. 
 
  This is one. The first step before nearly all the rest of the sentences are completed

be too small

I know but little 
   of God…
I see His   creation
it’s breathtaking   awe
   striking   for its beauty
   its complexity
its unfathomable intricacy.

But my knowing be   as nothing,
   smaller than   a nanoparticle,
but a whiff understand
   of God

I be   too small
and God 
so   unimaginably   vast.

The Infinite

The infinite stares back at me
from there across a great divide,
so unimaginably wide,
so far beyond where eyes can see.
Perceive a singularity?
I cannot grasp, although I’ve tried,
the infinite.

I entertain bewildered glee
somehow to gain the other side.
To take an interstellar ride,
imagining how I can be
the infinite…

Falling In Love

Falling in love is such a marvelous feeling
First blushes to learn about each other
Frequently sends the emotions reeling.

Understanding that love is appealing
Even though sometimes you smother,
Falling in love is such a marvelous feeling. 

Feeling like you’re walking on a ceiling
While keeping feelings under cover,
Frequently sends the emotions reeling.

Enjoying important pleasures revealing
Not wanting to be close to any other
Falling in love is such a marvelous feeling.

Having to restrain yourself from squealing
And, yes, wanting to go further and further
Frequently sends the emotions reeling.

Every day becomes unimaginably thrilling
Learning the true meaning of ardent fervor.
Falling in love is such a marvelous feeling,
Frequently sends the emotions reeling.

My Need of You

Calling am I to you
Timeless and undefinable
Rarely felt soothing presence
Endlessly awaiting my need of you 

Let me please summon at once
All that may be virtuous in me
Secretly dispersed within 
Multiple layers of Being
And with it the wit and thrive
Such task demands

Not afraid am I to admit
No one beyond the deepest depth
Is indispensable except for you
Given the threads pulling life
Are not only scarcely visible
But are unimaginably long

I trust in you to help me confront 
This heart already deeply carved 
With a pernicious capricious resistance
To permanently feel what is right
For doomed will I be
Letting this love for appearances
Keep guiding me day and night

All the Time

Such hideous tyranny,
My eyes, betraying my essence-
Two lone tears gather and fall
down the sides of my face.
Voice cracking, Jazz notes.
My skin, so full of secrets
Buried, crowbar wrenching it open
Desolation, in spite of myself
So, so, stupid
so, so, alive
so unbelievably, unimaginably, unfeasibly,
existing.
All the time.

Serene Stillness

When city life morphs
into a cacophony of noises;
splintered sounds levy a toll. 
And anxiety overshadows my reality;
till I'm brought to the edge of tears,
and need to step away from it all.
So, I inevitably turn
to nature's serene stillness;
to recharge my spirit. 
I'm a people person,
but, at times,
I want to be alone
with my thoughts;
listening to the mountains speak
in muted sounds of silence. 
Leaving my stress behind;
I seek the isolation of camping
in an unimaginably peaceful place
of quietude, beauty, and solitude.
And there, at night, the stars light up the sky,
bathing me in celestial light;
making me feel insignificant,
yet fundamentally connected,
somehow.

Of Infinity

Beyond the horizon as far as eye can see
And further still until all fades from view,
Even impatient rocking of the aqueous sea
Or tiny twinkling stars of a silverish hue.
I’ve heard soft whispers of true nothingness
In distant places unimaginably dark and bleak
In realms of fantasy, and so, I must confess,
Infinity is even beyond that of which I speak.

Somewhere out there where creation begins
Where all that exists grew from tiny sparks,
And, perhaps, beyond where our creation ends
The truth of everything unknown embarks.
Arriving there still no far horizon is sighted
Where darkness reigns, nothing is lighted.

The Beat of Drums

From somewhere the beat of drums
Steady rhythms piercing my senses
Persistently thump, thumping a bass
Thump, thump, thump, thumping
Behind unimaginably monotonous lyrics
And I longed for a crooner like Sinatra
Center stage with a single spotlight
No flashing strobes or crystal disco balls
Or pounding migraine made to order

Embracing Death

Fear death?-- to feel the sharp blades on my wrist
Oozing deep red liquid, outlining my fragile arm
Pain twinged in my once steady crest
I'm almost there, away from anybody's harm
Darkness awaits the struggles of my soul
I feel numb, unshaken yet creepy
Reaching for the light, coffee cups started to fall
No, I am finally free!

This strife will be over, what have I gained?
Built paper walls around me, unimaginably high
The chapter’s over, black ink smudges remained
Breathing in and out, fighting for air; Sigh! Sigh!
I was a fighter but can't stand no more
Watching closely how demise covered my eyes
Is this life really worth living for?

Misconception, failures, hatred and lies
Please allow me to taste freedom and peace
Let me embrace death, the whole of it
Hoping this time I will see a new light
To bear the pain, to cherish memories, to forget
To savour my last minute, though this isn't right
Whilst this sounds morbid, at last I am fine
Fear death?-- Nah, I would gladly embrace mine.

A Lover's Life

A Lover's life  

I wouldn't be alive to ink the words
The words that may wrench your heart, 
And you wouldn't be reading with this solace, 
If I haven't poured these words this soft.
Died that night a lover, still laying hopeful 
What's the life of a lover? All devastated!
If you're a human, you're already a lover
What awaits you is the pilgrimage 
That may lead to self-discovery  
How's a lover being with the love?
Exotic to him is a realm outside of his own
What he only knows is his love 
Eternally, ready to be slain  
And, you know what's a lover's life?
 Uncertain, unimaginably wrenched  
Who hasn't been devastated? 
In this realm, none is untouched by love 
That's a life,  a lover's life
 Better to be concealed from this realm.

The Eagle's Confident Wings

The eagle’s confident wings are ‘The why’
It does powerfully fly,
All the time, unimaginably high
Up in the cloudier, foggier sky,
Where humans don’t ply…
Between the straight and the sly.

The Eagle, though, comes down to die:
Perhaps, on some tree it’d kept an eye:
Like a baker fastened on his fast-selling pie
Or the ageing grey-haired on his dye
An undying tie.

Natures Song

The wind sings
A melody that
No instrument can 
Master
The twists and turns
Of the breeze,
Stronger and weaker
Endless whistling 
Against your houses
Crevices 

Is it singing to something?
Trying to match the birds
Chirping In the morning?
Or is it just screaming
At a reason 
To blow someone away
Scare the dogs
Hush the quiet

Is it a sign to cool off?
To blow off steam?
Is a storm closing in?
I try to sing along
But the pitch is unimaginably
Hard to manage
Instead I just listen
As the wind sings

The Garden of Love and Guilt

THE GARDEN OF LOVE AND GUILT

Judas, was destined to be the traitor to betray our Saviour,
Paid 30 pieces silver for him to perform guilty behavior
Satan had entered this man who told the authorities,
To follow Our Saviour, and the one he kissed
Among the majorities,
Would be Jesus, the innocent son of God, that they should arrest,
And so it took place, then Jesus was tried and 
Convicted, this blessed
Holy man sent by God, convicted of being treacherous 
And claiming to be King of the Jews for which he was 
Deemed to be dangerous,
He was to be crucified, as a common criminal!
A new era for many was about to take place in Biblical 
History – Jesus had to carry his own cross through the streets
Of Jerusalem, through to the Hill of Calvary, where he meets
And is crucified between two thieves,
He suffered unimaginably on that stark wooden cross, he heaves
His body one last time, His last words
Heard from this Son of Man, Our Lord
Were, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit”.
And then he died,
And Mary his mother cried!
Jesus thus took upon him the sins of humanity,
And so began the New Testament and Christianity.
