Tomorrow

If tomorrow starts without me,
Don’t feel awful,
For every day dawns afresh,
And each dusk brings new stars.

Don’t feel so lonely,
Because we shall be together in spirit,
At times, we need to be far away from each other,
Then come back closer.

Remember our hearts are meant for each other,
Despite the distance away,
And the valleys in between,
That keep us far away.

Wait for my heart,
As I wait for yours,
Because we are one
Now and forever.

If tomorrow you wake without me
In your sight,
Know that death
Has not yet grabbed me

You left

Too soon, your journey came to an end,
You had promised to hang on till we are done,
But now it seems I’ll have to do it alone.

Why did you have to leave?
Whom did you leave me with?
How am I going to live without you?

Yesterday, we sang our hearts out,
Sang to the songs of your love,
Talked about our tomorrow,
That never was.

This morning I woke up,
And it dawn on me,
You are no longer with me

God, why, why me?
Why, oh why?

My life without you,
Has become an empty shell,
A shattered dream,
A life of imaginations,

You left me when I so needed your heart,
When I so made the decision,
To be a part of you.

Now you are gone,
Gone before I could tell you,
Of the burning desire in me,
That I can only tell it to myself.

Death has no manners,
It stole you away from me too soon.

Wretched mind

It’s a bit cold outside
The sizzling wind is running crazily,
My body has been numb
For eons end

She lay on the bed,
Like a babe out of suckling,
Her innocence beamed all over,
Yet she was a beast in the least, to say.

The ecstatic nights started long before dusk set in
She came in cuddled my heart,
Twisted it into pieces
Before it became wrought.

I held her already trembling body,
Hugged it against my agitation
Placed her soft lips on mine,
Then gave a kiss of life.

I could feel the pumping of her blood
In a rhythmic expression of love,
We breathed, sighed and whined.

The temptations of the heart,
Led to the warmth of the soul,
Engulfed in the body and mind.

Her supple and smooth skin,
And mine were enjoined
As we gave out the deepest secrets of our hearts.

That was last night

Now I stare at her,
For I know,
I’m soon breaking a heart

You and I

What I see in you

You and I

We have known each other,
Almost like the back of our hands,
Like the birth mark on the finger.

We’ve lived in each other’s dream
…desires and aspirations.

Our life is a very big dream,
A shallow painful journey,
That cuts across our hearts.

We live in a world of imaginations,
A world of unfulfilled lies,
That detaches away from us.

We have lived a lie,
Lived a pain
Lived a sorrow,
But still love each other.

Where will our love go,
How long will it glow
When does it become
When?

You and I
Have lived in utopia,
In inertia,
Yet see a future together.

I miss the end of it all,
And yearn for the dawn to set in

Return

I gave you my life,
Return it the way it was
Before you took it

I shared with you dreams,
Return mine
For here are yours

I gave you my heart,
Return it unbroken

I wasted my time with you
I want to reclaim it

You hijacked my mind and sleep,
Now you must bring sanity back to me

Give me what is mine,
I give your excessive baggage.

What I see in you

Every dawn that sets in,
I open my eyes,
At the glittering sunlight
That beams through the spotless window
And I see you.

Every time I miss you,
I raise my head high above,
Thanking God for planting you here….
…. In my heart

When you cry, I feel the pain,
When you smile, I see the joy,
When you talk, I see the expression,

I believe your heart was made for me,
My feelings were perfected for you.
And our hearts, a match for our souls

Now more than ever,
I see faithful heart,
That glows in the dark,
A warmth smile that glitters my heart.

Because when I see you,
I see my self
In you.

I’m still here

I’m not gone
But still here.
In your heart I so remain,
In your feelings, I remain constant.

Why did it have to be that way?
Isn’t that love?
Tell me, isn’t it?

I feel the pain and cold in your heart
And I want to make it a new thing… a dawn.

You are not alone…
… we are alone in this journey.

Stop grieving,
Stop wailing
Stop regretting

You are a part of me… and I long to have you as so.
I sometimes play around with you,
but my heart, feelings and emotions are still for you.
Nothing is going to change that.
I know I’m not a good man… I make you cry and shed tears endlessly.
But then, I need you to make my life a complete cycle.

Because, I’m still here.

A lover’s reconnaissance

To my love,

First of all is much greetings. I’m doing well and surviving despite the unpredictable weather. The ozone is quickly getting depleted. and the sun is scotching hot, but life cannot come to a complete immediate halt so simply!!!

I took my first bottle of beer and disappointed my first girlfriend on the same night. I have never had time for beer and girls since then.

Our rendezvous, cost an impressive work, a blatant history engulfed with formidable language. Life, it is said, is a stage, but where the audience sit and watch the theatrical performances, I do not know. Do you? Have ever thought yourself a successful actress or an incidental character? I wonder!!!

You have indeed introduced me to a whole lot of interesting characters, whose presence I cannot fail to appreciate. My main bone of contention s the man you introduced to me as a “friend” and a good neighbour. When the alligator comes out of the river and tells you the crocodile is sick, an adage has it, who are you yo doubt?
I cannot clearly recall his name, but his facial looks will never disappear from my mind. His frontal dental formula presents a picture of a reformed ex-convict and his gumline told it all – he never came across a toothpaste;his face had scars all over, which made him look so ugly whenever he scratched them while his knotty and kinky hair boasted little acquaintance with the comb. I wonder how a lady of your calibre would boast of of a “brother” whose unassertive collar that long time disappeared and resembled something like a dust rug!!! Were you blind to make him look smart the way you usually did to me?
I did my own investigations and yes, it turned out that the man is neither your brother, nor your relative – and perhaps – not just any other village pedestrian.

Like a sheep to the slaughterhouse, I accompanied you to meet your ‘brother’. Along the warm you mentioned the night under the glaring full moon, then quickly, your mind came back on course at the screeching of vehicles along the busy street. All the way, I thought I was the only man in your life. Little did I know it was my ego. How stupid was I?
I wonder if he ever asked you whom I was. Did you tell him I was one of your distant relatives who ‘feels butterflies’ at the sight of strangers, when I whispered to you that he looked like an escaped convict?

Dear(I feel guilty calling you this), why don’t you tell me the truth? I promise you that I’ll not stricture or feel that I should take a rope and head to the nearest tree.
I love so many things in this world, than I do to petty girls. My immense pride has taught me, in this gruesome world, one needs to know that love is not a commodity to be bought over the counter. It is nurtured.
My dear (why do I keep on repeating this), I easily get fatigued, withdrawn and temperamental when I realize whatever I’m doing to my fellow mortals is not appreciated. Girl, do not try to be like a hyena who decided to attend to two parties concurrently only to break into two potions.
Sorry for being too critical yet I looked so naive.

You need to realize this world is not our home…we are just visitors, with a mission.

Yours,

Your former heart occupier

I Hate Saying This

How well do I get to enjoy the fruit of your love
Because I feel your denial
That I no longer exist in your world
And you’ve given me a tirade jabbering
Whenever I need some unconditional warmth from you?

We vowed with agility and determination
To put on blinders and race to the end of our earthly sojourn
But it seems my exhaustion
Has led to your limping ego and reserved ego

I try to stand up and join in the track
But my little and fragile legs betray me
I still feel the strength
Though dampened by your kicks and blows

Now I fear the worst is likely
And my heart is in denial,
For yours stopped living and loving a go!

Remininsce

Reblogged from Stories from within:

Early this morning, You arrived as I took tea, The night had been all wet, And sure, I knew one, if not many of you, Would be arriving as my visitors.

The wet night signals many, The unexpected, the unwanted, The known and the loved ones, Only that they are always cold ice.

So now, you arrived surrounded by sulky faces, Beaming with regret, tears and worries, For allowing the skies shed anger on you, And taking what each wanted.
