Walk Away

I am not afraid of the growling sky or the darkening clouds
But I fear the droplets escaping her eyes
My shabby old umbrella is no longer strong enough to shield me
As they come down under gravity force
With more power amassing on the way
Accelerating at a rocket speed
A storm looms not far ahead.................
But I still open the same old umbrella
Knowing it is of no use
As the rain shred the umbrella and sting me
Spreading the pain all over my body
I realize it is time to let go of the defenses
Deception cannot last forever
Alas I deserve what befalls me
So I draw back the umbrella and let the rain fall on me
And walk away
Never to return..................

Hopeless Dream

Just an ordinary man
that's what I thought of you
at our first acquaintance.
Another mystery waiting to be solved
I realized along the way.
As I seem to unveil your mask
I let you steal my precious heart
and now I drown in the pool of despair
with water running above my head
tying myself from expressing my feelings
for I know I am invisible to you
covered by the layer of friendship
and blocked by the pretty faces around you.
So I wait with the hopeless dream,
when the fallacious angels are gone
you will see me.....................

Waiting.......

His heart beat echoes in the silent corridor

As he walks back and forth

His feet trembling even if he convinces himself they don't

Anxiety fills his eyes but hope deeply stings in his heart

He is numb to the drama around him

And curses the clock for the hundredth time

Finally the metal door opens

And the white cloak approaches him

His heart best accelerates with each step she makes

"Congratuldations! It's a baby girl"

At last he releases the breath he held for so long

As a warm smile blooms across his face

His feet take him to his little angel

who has come down from heaven

to call him 'daddy'....

A Plea

I stare at the far horizon drawing fuzzy sketches on the sand

that the waves erase in just a moment

Oh you ruthless mighty sea, erasing my sketches

just the way you erased my dreams.

Oh the brutal murderer of innocent joy and laughter

Don't you feel ashamed of you cowardly act?

Are you not guilty of the crime you committed?

Oh you cold blooded killer, how could you steal him away from me?

If your deep dark water was instead like a bride's veil

I would see where he rest in peace.

Oh mighty water lord, bring him back to the shore just once

so I could tell him the three words

I never had the chance to say....................

Darkness

In the heart of darkness I lay
White space remains on the walls
where your pictures used to be
And a black hole in my heart,
The silence in the house is deafening
and the cold digs deep to my bones
as life drains from my soul

Then I hear her laughter
The sweet aroma of scented candles
escaping from the opened windows of her home
Whilst your favourite dishes getting ready in the kitchen
It's a pity that she had to take the light of my life
to brighten up hers

In the heart of darkness I lay………

Life

He stands
at the edge of the earth
The gushing wind
filling his ears
One more step
will end his suffering
forever…………….

As the dark clouds
steal the golden Sun
With the wind screaming
its mournful song
He falls…………..

Through the dark storm
a hand reached out
HER hand reached out
Finally his fingers touched hers
Their hands firmed in a clasp
As the wind cleared
the dark clouds
As the Sun turned into
a golden disk
He smiled………

At last,
An end to his pain……
A new beginning…….
Eternal peace……

Stillness Speaks....

You sit and gaze
at the constant movement
Everyone rushing past you
all rats in the never ending race
Mesmerized in their sugar coated dreams
The clock is ticking
Spring turns to Summer
and Summer turns to Fall
with Winter not far ahead
Life goes oninside the maze
and you wonder if anyone understands that
Stillness speaks
