Anger Like Fire
Anger like fire
Bursts forth
In leaps of flames
Words rage in ire
Abort
In one painful frame
And once released
Break hearts
With wounds that bleed
The ties are eased
To part
From Love and need.

Take Two
Angry goodbyes can break our hearts
Quick words released, they can resound
And open doors where Love departs
Then fleeting Joy cannot be found.
But like the dove that flies back home
One word of 'Sorry' can bring healing
Like a second read of a much-loved poem
That word returns the loving feeling.

Words Reflect the Parent
Words reflect the parent that raised you up
What they have taught you all those years
Words can say more than just enough
And show the person with his hidden fears.
Words tell more than what eyes can see
They uncover the heart of the man really
For they come from within the core of the man
The heart source of anger, rejection, and want.
A person who speaks with words so obscene
Tell the whole world of the roots where he had been.
His words portray parents who may have failed him
And with curses he lived at every beck and whim.

Burning Words Cut Love Cords
Weighed down
By burning words
They sound
Like angry swords
Slain hearts
Now lie in discord
Depart...
And cut Love cords.

Goodbyes Here in My Eyes
Now you gaze and see
Goodbyes here in my eyes
In tears this Sadness flees
When Love departs and dies
Ribboned hearts are now released
From ties and graying promises
For other loves have come and pleased
To cut through bonds with bleak excuses.
And now I shall then set you free
My eyes no longer hold its hopes
My heart lets go, unties Reality
At last untied, where vague Love gropes.

A Man Reaps What He Sows
Careless intent reaps much discord
And many a time, it harvests offense
A bitter root grows from our words
As the wounds it cuts are truly immense.
And God will not be mocked
A man shall reap all that he sows
Man's words be weighed the Good it lacked
For God does hear and knows.

Undecided Love (Naani form)
Between indecision and ambivalence
In passing Time
Drives Love to Absence
Frail Gemini's crime.

The Color of Absence
A prism
Of diverse colors
Intertwined
In mixed emotions
Released
In light, a burst of magic
In darkness
Shades become lethargic
Absence
Opens white and blue
Magenta, red, and green
Blended
Feelings left unseen
In sadness lost
Dissolved in hues.

When Eagles Fall
They will fall and not know why
Disaster ruled their beloved land
When Truth and Faith allowed to die
God released them from His Hand.
So They will crawl and eventually die
Their cries and pleas will be in vain
This nation lost, their God deny
Had pledged a partnership with Pain.
Their profane words that degenerate
Their cursive writing that sealed their fate
Like soaring eagles shot with arrows
Swift is their fall and much is their sorrow.

As I Close My Eyes I See You
Each moment never takes me away
For you always seem to be here with me
Though we are apart there is not a day
That Love has not bound us continually.
Even our thoughts they seem like one
Our hearts beating together too
From the rising to the setting sun
As I close my eyes I see you!

Faithfulness
When someone whom you love
Does the same rash things you do
And so you feel a similar pain
In life, that is equality... and true.
For words and actions done or said
Mean nothing substantially concrete,
Unless one swears upon all dead
With faithfulness, seals Love complete.
Cherish the love you have that's rare
Love is a gold coin you spend only once
Foolish games and times you're unfair
May later forfeit your one last chance.

Like uncaged prey set free
Bitterness unchained by a forgiving heart

My Valentine Is Blue
The day of Hearts approaching
And you, I will be missing
That Valentine card is still here
Catching my every tear.
For another love had taken
And left me lonely and forsaken
Words on cards are never true
My Valentine isn't red... but blue.
If only words can deliver
This card's beloved Sender
What a great day Valentine!
Same as last year -
when you were mine.

The Fruit of Our Lips
How permanent like words
Each passing day leaves its mark
How a great fire in the woods
Can be made by a little spark
How easy to bring forth Harmony
By lighting our words with grace
How great a little Kindness can be
Spread forth in the human race.
Fan the flame of goodness and love
Speak words of forgiveness and care
Usher the blessing from God above
The fruit of our lips these bear.

Never To Return
A dried leaf falls and withers
Never to return to a tree
A life ended will never
Breathe again and...be.
Words said in anger
Can never be unsaid
Wounds caused thereafter
Leave friendship ties...dead.

Forgetting
Now comes the last goodbyes
The longing is no longer there
The sighing ceased and dry the eyes
Hearts now are free from love and care.
Words have emptied of their sweetness
Gazes are far and never meet
Blank looks that all speak of sadness
The promised future we now forfeit.
The stage is set for the forgetting
All things must end with time someday
Release the past with all forgiving
We tried to love but it's gone away.

Sandpapers
Some people rub us the wrong way
Although they do not mean to
But still it takes our joy away
And dampens moods, it's true.
People have the best intentions
But sometimes say wrong things
Wrong words invite contention
And then come the bruised feelings.
Some people are sandpapers
They seem to be born that way
I think it is so much better
To shrug the shoulders, smile it away.

Words of Grace
Words that uplift another
Are words God blessed with grace
They leave the hearer feeling better
And show respect for the human race.
Words, not curses, bear eternal fruit
And multiply the goodness in life
These words should then be our pursuit
Not cursing words that will cause strife.

Curses and Malice
Curses and malice go together
Like marital partners they sashay
And like dirty words they are forever
Recorded in Heaven everyday.
And those that release them are in bondage
In shackles and chains of obscene language
Pulling them lower down eternal fire
Sealing their fate in hell so dire.

With Pity
With pity I shall view
Your life and all you do
Your words are laced with wrong
And in the end where you belong.
With pity I conclude
Your fate on judgement day
Your curses they prelude
What eternal fire arrays
With pity I shall then
View you from there in Heaven
When you shall then be burned
And regret all words you've spoken.

At Least We Had Loved
To have loved someone
In the brevity of Time
And to be loved in return
Is true Happiness sublime.
In my life I was blessed
To have had you to love
And to know that you loved me
Is my gift from above.
For it is the better part
Of this finite existence
A real blessing for our hearts
Separated by distance.
And I'm thankful each day
In my life I found you
For some just die away
Without a love that is true.
