Confession of Love
0From the moment I met you,
I thought it was only a game.
But I didn’t realize
I’d fall in love with you.
It was hard to believe
But love was happening to me.
I was just a little fool
‘Cause I took you for granted.
Now that I love you
And you know about my feelings,
Things get only worst between us.
I knew it’s not easy thing for us…
But I hope someday you’d listen to me.
I swear in God’s name,
I made a lot of change
‘Cause now I’m ready for everything.

A Dream After The Demise
0Man becomes a bee
assaulting a rosebud.
Death, do not punish for unlived years
when Budha was sitting inside me.
At center stage a dance begins
wading through salvia and absinthes.
The soil craves for the roots,
lake was not deep enough to sail.
Stem cells resume the debate
tapping the amniotic fluid.
Salt lick becomes lethal in midnight syndrome.
It was a tall claim.
The beards hang in rows, testing
the impatience of the system. A line
of funerals becomes longer, on burning beach,
where god and beast meet in dark.

Your Eyes
0When I looked into your eyes
And watched that tears
Came falling down like a storm,
I felt helpless like a worm.
I wanted to show you that my love
Would never hurt you like this.
I wanted to tell you that life
Was not all about pain and sufferings.
There was something in your eyes.
I couldn’t tell what it was
But you have suffered enough.
I could see why you were tough.
Your eyes were eyes by many
Who have been hurt for sometime.
I wish you were carried away
By my expression of love.
I’d do anything to protect you.
I would always be there for you
Every single day
To love you endlessly.

Dear Gre Pearl Gay
+1Dear Gre Pearl Gay,
I swear from this day forward
To think positive things only.
I’ll do everything to make you proud.
Tha fact is I’m afraid to lose you.
It’s too hard for me without you.
I’m sorry for the lack of trust
And that’s the time when you need me most.
Dear Gre Pearl Gay,
It’s not my intention to hurt you.
Please, I don’t want you to cry.
All I wish in this world is to be with you.
You’re right to say that I’m weak,
Yet I’m not sticks and stones that will break.
You’re the reasons why I’m strong and out of blue
‘Cause the love I have for you is always true.

Wounded Flight
-1Instead of pain sublime in body of death
and bracing a hailstorm of bullets
you embrace a white phosphorus
to burn for whole life, as a reminder of
collective suicide. Like my lost children
I am collecting the words to weave a phrase
against the destiny for capturing this moment.
The vast crowd will decide the fate of frigid winter –
to upstage the sun. Barren trees overhear
the wailing winds. Lake of death will outlast
the mirage of inward suffering. Chariot of
Apollo vaults to inconceivable height.

Death And Apollo
-1Honeymoon with history was over.
A two headed snake was sitting on a coin
of leather in grass. Blue tongued
jewel was going to serve the enormity
of destination. Disquietingly, decomposed
relics were coming out of the rubble. Coil
of thoughts becomes a vector of violence.
Cobwebs of increased blood supply to
malignant battle. You die in your own
vision. The awns of oblivion pierce the
wings of dumbfounding words. Offering
shows the fear unlimited. Prices
crash in a meltdown. Poverty holds you
in doorway. Feathers understand the boundary.
A flock of sheep was butchered by a wild beast.

What Comparison?
0The displaced years
cling
to your body
like an extended death.
I wanted to see
what could not be seen
by clutching.
the lifeless doubts.
Emotions play:
potentials are threatened.
Remaining alert becomes a
punishment. I grieve for the dementia,
the night yawns. The walking trees
start swapping the roots. Folds of sorrow
whisper of morality.
The apocalyptic prophecy wants to know:
“Have you ever seen the hell? ”
