Simple


Your eyes they show me history
I know my queen you're missing me
I know it's hard she says to me
She wipes my tears away from me
I know she can not stay with me
Forever in my memory
Nostalgic old simplicity 

Oh simple days come back to me

Serenity freefall

Hello, can you hear me?

I'm writing so you can see me

Type type type

My words are ripe

 

Without a thought or planning

An idea is hatching

Could it be good, could it be sad?

Only time will tell

If I can make it sell

 

Down in my basement, I type away

Day after day, I hear them say

As if I'm stone deaf

Without words, I'm dumbdead

 

So many profiles, f...

Trust in God And Don't Keep the Offences!

Don't trust the sweet words of a stranger

If you don't want to get into the danger.

Sweet words may raise you to the clouds,

But you better run away without doubts.

 

 

And having bitten into your trust like a snake,

He will be wrapped in a trustworthy fake.

And then right on your field of fight,

He will try to prove that he is right.

 

 

Neither the darkness no...

Flowers of Misfortune

In the silence that resonates,
a lament of absences,
the flowers bloom in the shadows,
whispers of a life that fades away.

Eyes searching the horizon
for a trace of hope,
but pain, like a poem,
is sculpted in the words of the day.

The city is a labyrinth of steps
that reflects solitude at every corner -
laughter dissolves in the wind
like falling petals,
disguised in the chaos.

Word Search

the blank page waits   

for the quenching stink of ink  

a scribble of unflinching words  

something to mull and make it think 

 

the filled page grits  

when the savage pen comes down 

to flay through failing words  

lose many and put others under doubt 

 

the final page knows    

these few are survivor words 

strong enough to tell the story

Mouthful Of Words

Poem after Brian Moses

 

These are the words my teacher teaches,

omnipresent, evaporating, invigilator, dichotomy,

diminuendo.

 

Then there are the words at home they choose

in our chatters animated to recounting the news.

 

There are the words that Grandma always seems

to say that I regurgitate, no matter the situation or their

Weaving Lines

In script, I chase elusive breath, emotions' subtle pleading,
Such words enfold, deceit swathed in a tender, soft misleading.
To paint the world through poet's lens, the rarest hues I borrow,
In stanzas sail, through mind's vast sea, where verses trade in sorrow.

A tinkerer of syllables, line by measured essence,
Might muse perceive a poet's form, shadowed in your presence?
We waltz beneat...
