…AS LOVE SHED ITS TEARS THROUGH MY EYES


A mountain of a man am I

No excessive feelings could move

Immune to its poignant design

Like a tall tree I stood


How could I be there with her

And not be moved by fluid emotions?

Anxious was my disposition by far

So split was my love in portions


In fields of many lilies

I lay facing blue skies

My heart became vulnerable and willing

When I looked through those angel eyes


My head remained rock hard

But heart was muddied to pulp

Unsteadied by emotive blizzards

It usurped control of my thoughts


We sailed through time in silent speeches

With few words of duplicate meanings

Our eyes by volition communicated deep secrets

Of manifestations of each other’s feelings


Raptured were we in a world we so eagerly plunged

Fighting back nothing in submission to all

Like a pendulum captured in its highest moment we swung

As saturated salty fluids of sight were permitted to fall

BEAUTY DIVINE

It all came alive
like a flower in the peak of its blossom
of feelings so crippling
none could be more awesome

The light was so bright
so did blindness reveal
‘cos it gave life to sight
so strong I could feel

Of beauty none was more divine
of love none more intense
t'was the creator's best design
untamed, with no pretence

Lost was I in her presence
so deep in love I fell
in my oblivion I felt my essence
and my contentment I could never sell...

ALL THAT I OWN…

At the very depths of my heart
Doth my deepest emotions dwell
They erupt like lavas volcanoes spat
And burn with desire for on fueled ground they fell

The sky is my swimming pool
And the waters my building ground
For fantasies are all of you
And with you I am spellbound

I sleep while awake
For dreams are my comfort zones
I weep at dawn’s break
For you cease to be my very own

My thoughts are real
For they are what I feel
A blissful reality
My own private thrill

Numerous yet I can’t share
Even the fruitful branches of memories that have grown
For such I nurtured with tender loving care
In preservation of all that I own…
