A Starry Night

I open my eyes to a dream-like paradise
An utopia my heart can't fathom
An abyss I wish to fall into
But now I get to watch it crumbling down
I get to watch my dream elude
To the mysteries of the stars
Like a rose planted in the moonlight
She faded into the sky
Even with the radiance of the moon shining so brightly
The shadow in my heart ran to the other side
Even at night
when the stars shine brightly
It still remained
For I am like a star
One of many

HOME

My eyes seek refuge 
An escape from the ugliness  
Towards the lulu that you are
An embodiment of beauty
Where empty hearts 
Fill to the brim
A safe house for lost souls 
A paradise, a place 
I can call home`

WONDERING HEART

My heart is like an open book
That only she can write in it
A journal difficult to open
More like a lock with no key
Yet she opened it easily

My heart never gathered courage
To tell her how I feel inside
Yet I have been in love with her
Before she knew me
My heart is like a dungeon
Holding my feelings hostage
Waiting to be discovered

A SONG FOR THE HEART

I speak of imperfections 
as if they are attached to my heart
Ashes of beauty
with a motley of infatuations

Hymn Of The Heart

I am sorry, I am sorry 
But sometimes my mind answers to my heart
If love makes a man foolish 
What does that make me then
My heart aches from being in the same room with you,
I bite my tongue just to hold these feelings inside
But they say the chorus a poet bleeds
Lasts a lifetime
Why me? Why me?
This gut-wrenching, godforsaken feeling pierces my soul
My very being aches from this
You are so close, yet my feelings can't reach you
My infatuation for you is the song my soul never meant to sing
Hear these hibiscus hymns as I take them to my grave
Like a violin verse between venom and Venus 
I picked mine and it was you.

A PASSING STRANGER

To have and to hold 
To yearn but never demand
A heart left waiting

A LOVE TO REMEMBER

When the sky misses the warm embrace of the sun
The moon comforts it with its quiet radiance
The memory seeps deep within 
With eyes burning of limerence 
The soul cries out  to you, Cariño.

The smallest light shines the brightest in the darkest room
And that's where you found me 
Your voice leaves an imprint of serenity 
Soothing even the most turbulent times 
You are  no longer a distant memory but a canon event. 

So listen to me, 
When the sun goes down 
And rises again in the morning 
The last warmth and the first light
Reminds me of you
And that's how I  want us to be
Walking this road
Saying goodbye bye hurts
Even when it's for a while.

If anything,
I want us to become 
One with time
As nature compliments itself
So can we.
