SILENCE

Today I said my goodbyes

as you walked away

And I cried and cried

Knowing that this day was coming

But really not expecting it

Yesterday we smiled

Our lips touched

And today

The emptiness of the aftermath

Loneliness was my only companion

I miss you,

The words spoken by you linger in my ears

I want you

please don’t leave me

And then

No more was left

Silence

WORDS

My friends inquire about my writing, and my ability to write things down in seconds. How am I able to write the way I do, and this is what I tell them?

“I wrap myself in their minds, I feel what they feel. I write and writers are one of a kind…I’m an artist”.

I’m taking my heart to the unknown and

Words are becoming my weakness.

You see I search for the right word

The one word

That can describe this insanity.

FIXATION…

Hmm, no, obsession of what could be

Maybe

ADMIRATION...

Can’t say,

But I do

Appreciate the times our eyes meet

LOVE...

No

Other than adoring the smile

That taunts my heart.

So not one word can describe

This feeling

VOID...

Perhaps

Because this feeling is so

Unclear

And the clouds that I’m walking on

Are over bearing

Indefinite madness

But only because you exist

BUT...

I am a leader,

Never a follower

BUT

I do follow my heart.

My heart

Never lies

BUT

It betrays me

When least expected.

Perception is the greatest down fall

Because ALL is not

What it seems.

NO GUARANTEES

Love has no guarantees

It knows no deception

And it comes and goes in a blink of an eye…

I was standing and there you were

I searched for words to describe this sudden urgency

And I couldn’t, not one word came to mind.

Deaf to the world and suddenly blind,

I was blinded by love

And this I know because the heart doesn’t lie.

Savoring each touch

If only for that split second

Nothing exist

My eyes close and I

Imagining the warmth of your breath

It was then that I realized that

It’s you

My only hope

I know that love has no guarantees

But it leaves you anticipating for

What’s next to come…

AN ADDICTION WITHOUT A CAUSE

You’re a sweet addiction
An addiction that I can’t deny
I hunger and I hunger for the scent of your smell
The mind fool by act of non existence and
The body numb with desire

I see you and I taste you
And the image vivid to the mind’s eye
You’re the drug that has me in a trance
With no doubts you are indeed
An addiction without a cause

KNOCK...KNOCK

SOFTLY YOU WHISPERED “GOODBYE MY LOVE”

AS I LAY THERE

THE TEARS OVER WHELMING

AND THERE I STOOD

MOTIONLESS

THE WARMTH OF YOUR BREATH

REMAIN FOR A SPLIT SECOND

AS YOU WALKED AWAY

MY HEART LEFT WITH YOU THAT DAY

LORD KNOWS THAT I HAVE TRIED

MANY TIMES I DID AND ALMOST SUCCEED

BUT YOU WHERE THERE

HIDDEN IN THE SHADOWS OF MY HEART

I COULDN’T LET GO AND ALTHOUGH

MY MIND WANTED AND NEEDED SOMETHING MORE

WHAT WAS LEFT OF MY HEART REFUSED TO ACCEPT THE FACTS?

YOU NO LONGER EXIST.

MAYBE ONE DAY

WHO KNOWS

LOVE WILL KNOCK AND I WILL OPEN THE ENTRANCE

ALL THE WAY,

BUT UNTIL THAT DAY

KNOCK…KNOCK

IS THERE SOMEONE AT MY DOOR?

THERE YOU WERE

And there you were
In the corner
Sitting by your lonesome self
Starring out at the distance
The view vaguely visible to the eyes
And I wonder
Why so sad
You, there sitting all by your
Lonesome self
You portray happiness
Your eyes portray sorrow
And there you are
Sitting in the corner
By your lonesome self
Devouring your drink
And so I wondered,
What could be going through
Your mind
The splinters on your finger tip
Mocking you
And there you remain
Sitting all by your lonesome self
