Living in a
Mesmerized world
Revisited by a dear soul
When darkness inhabits all around
Light pours from another world
Bringing with it
A rush of warmth
A joy - of finding this treasure lost
A smile that was put aside
just for this moment
She wears it and soars
High up
Above the clouds
She floats around
Carefree and listless
Holding hands with happiness
Locked in a gentle clasp
Flickers of fervor
Caressed by a distant sigh
She lingers
In an embrace of that untouchable heat
The moment, it passes by
And
She melts away
To fall
As a raindropp on another rose
To Shine
As a dewdropp on another leaf

Embrace
Embrace someone you care for
Remember time the thief
Forget the why or wherefore
Life's a dewdropp on a leaf.
Kiss her everyday
Treasure what you share
When fortune comes to play
He leaves an empty chair.
Embrace someone who needs you
Love moves forward or dies where it stands
When the world warns what it can lead to
You'll be stronger while your'e holding hands.
Tell her you love her everyday
Live for now, forget future plans
Love was never persuaded to stay
It takes off soon after it lands.
So embrace her and feel her heart beat
It's why we are born
For one moment so sweet.

A Breath of Heaven
*~*
Every now and then,
when the world sits just right ~
a gentle breath of heaven
fills my soul with delight,
and I sigh,
as the sun brings its morning,
its gift of warmth to chase the chill ~
from the crook of night's arms
arising o'er that far hill,
and I know,
heaven smiles,
and I smile, too,
for life can be hard
while the dreams are few.
Yet, every now and then,
when the world sits just right ~
that gentle breath of heaven
fills my soul with delight,
and I see,
a turning of a leaf
dancing in the autumn's sun,
and a brilliant shade of crimson
glowing when the day is done,
and I sigh,
as the rose that stands alone,
thrives where no others thrive.
A rare bouquet of one ~
still strong, still alive,
and I know,
that even in the shadows
heaven catches, unaware,
those blinded by visions
of hatred and despair,
and I see,
a promise of tomorrow
in that wind around the bend,
as it carries a dream of hope ~
with no hate or pain to tend,
and I pray,
as every now and then,
when this world sits just right ~
that gentle breath of heaven
fills my soul with delight,
and I smile...I smile.

Distant Light
Distant light flickers an invitation of hope.
In reaching it, there will be sanctification.
Dimness that surrounds the eyes
will be forgotten.
Black holes that open the heart
will be discarded.
Let the distant light come closer.
Let the distant light be a friend.
Shallow water cannot drown soul.
It can only hinder the passage.
Dampening the spirit as it frolics
like a moonbeam across the mind.
Distance lends unhappiness.
Let the distant light shine bright.
Let the distant light be a guide.
In closets of blackness the hands
seek an opening in the shadows.
They find nothing, but the eyes
focus on a distant light that
calls like a radio in the night.
Let the distant light embrace.
Let the distant light be closer.
In an emptiness of broken glass
there is a pattern to salvation.
Frame the light like fire in the glance,
walk towards it. Find escape.
Let the distant light be strong.
Let the distant light shine forever.
What is the distant light that shines?
What is its meaning in a journey?
This is an answer not easily explained.
This is a hope not readily known.
Let the distant light continue.
Let the distant light always shine.

Only Your Smile Makes My Heart Shine
Sometimes i'm happy laughing,
Enjoying each moment of life, or sometimes,
Cold of loneliness is wrapping me,
And my heart feels withdrawn.
But when the dawn are coming,
And i'm opening my eyes,
The first thing that i see is your smile,
That embrace my being with love and light.
How could i ever be sad,
When your sweetness is surounding me,
How could i ever be lost,
When your eyes shine passion looking at me?
Wherever i go, i'm followed by your smile,
With two brown charming eyes besides,
Is not a smile i would ever forget,
In this magnetic smile my whole world resides.
Nothing in this world is like your smile,
No one can bring me that infinite delight,
Only your smile awakes in me feminity,
Only your smile makes my heart shine.

Missing You.
We were close
as close as could be
You were my faith in life
my reason to believe
Believe in happiness
the happiness you brought each day
Now all is lost
all the words I didn't get to say
Say that you were my saviour
my guide through the pain
The only one
keeping me sane
Sane as you can be
in this world of disbelieve
All is drowned
in my world filled with grief
Grief that tears me apart
bringing me to defeat
Shadows embrace me
bringing eternal sleep
Sleep is my enemy
against the raging fire
Burning deep inside
filling my heart with desire
Desire for a moment
A moment of peace again
I miss being happy
I miss you my friend

To behold the dream
Living in darkness
Seeing only pain
Need driving your every sense
Everything making me insane
But there was always one thing
Shining like eternal grace
Saving my damned soul
for but a moment
I can see peace and joy
In a split second
I am free
But the moment passes
And i return
Back to the dreary world
Of which i live
Your happiness gone
My joy gone with it
Someday that Joy will be mine one day
To hold and enjoy
To be mine forever
A wonderful dream to behold

By The Ocean (For Dislocated Heart)
I stand by the ocean,
Breathing in the crisp air of night fall,
Watching the moon slipping away,
As the sky melts into the sea;
An endless darkness.
I can feel my mind falling into its depths,
Thinking about every breath I take,
About the world above,
And the world below.
Questions fill my mind,
Questions of life, living, and existence,
Yet still I stand,
Silent and still.
The gentle breeze in the palm trees,
Brushing my hair across my face.
The wind pushes my dress against my legs,
The feeling almost mimicking that of the water.
I can feel the cool spray of the ocean with each wave,
A giant lung breathing the same air as I.
It is a calm entity existing to exist.
A world so unknown and full of wonder,
Yet so simple from above…
I breath a sigh and close my eyes,
The sight of the waves imprinted on my eyelids,
The scent filling my nose and mouth,
The water touching my skin,
The taste of the salt on my tongue,
The repetitive sound of the water endlessly fill my mind.
My feet buried in sand as if to be innocent sand crabs.
A moment so calm and simple,
Yet so meaningful,
If you take the time to experience it,
A moment in which nothing else matters,
Nothing but the water, the sand, and living.
Everything else, like the sky,
Melts away into the sea,
Into the endless dark abyss.
And so I stand,
By the water,
Living and breathing.
If only the world would stop for a moment,
A moment to live and breathe too;
So relaxing and yet so eye opening.
The silence of the night wrapping around me,
The ocean rocking me into sweet oblivion.
Until I have to open my eyes and walk inside,
Back to reality,
But until then,
I'll just stand here,
By the ocean.

After All It Is Not At All Darkness
as you learned what darkness is
in the middle of your grief
and lament
light sometimes comes surprisingly
from the holes of your walls
and you find warmth and colors
pink, and red, and green and blue
in a prism of light
from a slit of your window
and you look out to another world
beyond your walls and
windows
you find
a rainbow, some clouds, evergreen mountains
you find a trail
inviting you for a walk
you feel the cool air
wishing you to breathe
you see a world before you
arms ready to embrace
hands always waiting for you to be caressed
it does not take much to open an eyelid
to wake up and then try this walk of life.

If You Decide To Go
You can not leave me cold and wet.
Not at this moment.
Not just yet.
The Sunrise isn't promised,
To be clear of clouds.
And I fear left to be dewed...
Without a drying out,
Allowed.
You can not leave me cold and wet.
Not at this moment.
Not just yet.
Can't you stayed to rekindle what was made.
And lay until the heat...
Lingers,
As we peacefully fall to sleep.
You can not leave me cold and wet.
Not at this moment.
Not just yet.
The Sunrise isn't promised,
To be clear of clouds.
And I fear left to be dewed...
Without a drying out,
Allowed.
Even if you decide to go,
The scented pillow that I will hold...
Will not promise your light,
To shine as bright.
Leaving me anticipating your return,
Tomorrow.

0011 Blown Rose Wise
How wise
the rose?
near the shortest day,
the seasons all confused this year
even the great globe itself
confused by man
and on this gusty day
a rose throws
itself upon the world
simultaneously hero, heroine, victim
seen calling through the window;
if it were a child alone out there
you would rush out to save it
does the rose know
how beautiful it is?
or is it wiser than we are,
knows more of love?
of law?
looks tenderly upon
man’s need for beauty,
frail reassurance
of the beauty of our own soul
any moment now
the wind will tear its weakening petals
yet I saw it while it lasted, as if
the only rose in the world
and before it returned
to wherever the souls of roses
sigh, laugh, smile,
return to eternal Rose
it wrote this poem in – to it –
an unfamiliar language
that tried to translate
its beauty into me
wiser, in some way,
than I

From The Moment (Strambotto Toscano)
From the moment when time, this world did begin,
together the two of us must then have been,
in my heart, spirit and soul you jumped in
from the moment when this world had first light seen
together we were in a world full of sin
and for each other we must have been quite keen
from that far distant first awakening spring
God had to us an unbreakable love bring.

One Mirror Too Many
From the moment you see
The moment you breath
The moment I touch you
From the moment you crawl
The moment you fall
The instant I loved you again
From the moment of darkness
The moment of light
The second I kissed you
From the moment I enter
The moment I leave
In this moment of rapture
Chorus
One mirror to many gonna tie you up
A life forever empty has got to be tough
To many starless night gonna leave you blind
Can never make it right
From the moment you stumble
The moment you run
In your presence I crumble
From the moment it happens
The moment you know
Theres no life without you

My Soul Mate
As the waves crashed against my body
the refreshing cool water relaxed me
but as he drew near I became hot and anxious
for him to take me into my world
in this world I’m untouchable
invincible
unstoppable
in a degree it’s almost dangerous
for me to be in
as he inched closer to me
I felt my knees become jelly
I found myself starting to slip
into my world
he grabs my hand under the water
with his soft
gentle
loving hands that comforted me
make me feel safe and loved
in his arms is where I belong
for all eternity
as he pulls me close butterflies
start in the top of my stomach
and end up dragging on the bottom of the water
at that moment
time stood still
there were no minutes
no days no years
nothing as if someone had pushed puased
to their favorite movie
at that moment when time stood still
our eyes met for the first time
in my world
as we bolth gazed into eachother's eyes
he searched for something and found it
my soul he now has a part of my soul
and I have a part of his
in that same sweet
incredible
moment we became something so
life changing that we wouldn't be the same ever again
we became
soul mates

I am but an Angel...
I am but a twinkling star in your life of dreams,
In your eyes I stare into a beauty so extreme.
My heart it has taken flight upon this whipping wind,
I hear the calling of your soul something must begin...
Lost amidst a monsoon, raindrops falling from above,
I am incomplete and empty I need somone to love.
I am but a whisper hear me calling out your name,
Perhaps you will answer and begin this lovers game...
I've been lost within the darkness concealing what I know,
But with your light now shining, it's time for me to grow.
For I am but a raindropp that falls gentle on your face,
Lingers there and sparkles until it is erased...
I know not where we're going or where this path may lead,
I am merely the planter all my words are just as seeds.
Will you be the water that shall surely make them grow?
For I am but a rainstorm let me teach you all I know...
I am but a moment waiting here for only you,
I am but an echo until you decide what's true.
I am but an angel sent from high above
I have brought with me the gift of peace and love...
Spread the love... The peace will follow...

Love's Embrace
The flame of love flickers within the shadow of night
Two souls shall dance in perfect harmony
The heat of love holding them like a moth to a flame
Heart felt emotions relived yet never growing old
The world around us becomes nought but a dream
This everlasting moment reflected in our eyes
Heated skin against heated skin sparking the fire within
Caressing lips stoking the fires of passion
Trembling bodies locked within a lovers embrace
As passion moulds us into one sweet entity...
Spread the love... The peace will follow...

The heat of love holding them like a moth to a flame,
Heart felt emotions relived yet never growing old.

Heated skin against heated skin sparking the fire within,
Carressing lips stoking the fires of passion.
Trembling bodies locked within a lovers embrace,
As passion moulds us into one sweet entity...

Just For A Second
Closing my eyes
just for a second
I see the face that
mesmerized my world...
Holding those thoughts
just for a moment
I feel like my life
is on a toss...
Silence crept in
weeping through my soul
Strong I stood
holding to my heart...
Wished it to be a dream
hoping to forget soon
But never got to sleep
to be woken up again...
Pain is a small word
to describe the agony
Faced in my world
just for a second...

I Am A New Word
i am a new word
to the vocabulary of the flesh
and the soul
they all live in me for this moment
and slowly i must define myself
gently i must touch the beauty of my soul
with the mortal hands of my body
there must be a way
to harmonize light and darkness
living in twilight
in the land where light and darkness meet
where love and hate embrace
where heaven and earth kiss
i am a new word
and in my heart and mind i must define myself

Sitting On A Cloud
Sitting on a cloud
In the middle of the sky
Watching the world
As it passes by
Star dust
From the heavens
Falls slowly
Gently, like a leaf in autumn
Night turns to day
As twice as quickly as it came
One moment there
The next moment not
Shining sunsets
And rising dawns
Each one more special
Than the last
Each one a memory I hold dear
