the need to create

they come in flashes of color
the wildest imagination ever
fantasies never known boundaries
reality stretched to a point of envy

leave me alone, i ask of you
i love my world with boundaries
limits that i see to a tee
and a love that is so much a reality..

i'll lose myself if i indulge
ur world is a dream at large
spans of wings to see me fly
but none to wipe the tears i cry

leave me alone, for now, at least..
i'll never forsake u or deny u ur peace..
the time will come, i beg u please
when all the pages will finally be finished..

festivities

peace,
that's all i asked
from the blood of my own
to the faces masked

silence,
is it too much to ask
u've had ur fun
from dawn til dusk

oh festive seasons
if only u r the only reason..

Valentine's

a smiling face on the stand
the sweetest voice on the line
the thousands of miles across
this sweet love of mine..

the month of love is here..
alone but nothing to fear..

A Gleam of Light

i want to believe
i want to believe it so much that my heart tore
over the love he showered me
over the kindness he presented with gilds of gold

i want to bury the doubts
the tiny teeth of suspicions that are too much to bear
i want to silence the anger
the hurt that was inflicted far before his time

why am i doing this..
its like the sun being shadowed with dark clouds
the largest diamond with a scratch barely seen
why am i denying myself of rapture..

he is there..
a gleam of light in winded tunnel

Another day, missing you...

Another day is dawning...
Another morning,
where i wake up and not be able to be there
to confess my love to you,
and let it be the first thing you hear to start your new day...

Another day of madness at work awaits...
with it being only a distraction, knowing that...
Another night is coming...
where I crawl into my cold, lonely bed...
and not be able to be there to whisper 'I love you'...
and let it be the last thing you hear to end your day...
Another day has passed,
and another will come...
and everyday is another day...
that brings me closer to be with you again... I miss you

Love Lost

I see you standing in the rain
With thunder and lightening in the skies
I see your face crumpled with pain
And the light that I love lost in your eyes

I see you held your head so low
As if the raindrops are hurting you so
With the pain, the anger and the sorrow
It was as if there's no tomorrow

Come here my love, take my hand
I promise you this where you stand
Throughout the storm, the thunder & the rain
I will be beside you to share your pain
Just a little stronger through this bout
The sun will appear after the dark clouds
The colors of rainbow will paint the skies
And my love, the light will return to your eyes...

Dabbled and dabbled, and dabbled again
never getting to matters on land
lines and lines and lines amend
trying to chase the ticking hand

Light and dark, sun and moon
seconds are felt, flying too soon
hot and frigid, warm and cool,
land now, its dangerous fool...

Reds were blinking now ignored
rush of feelings has come forth
oh mighty being see her through
as she wobbles in her shoes
Into the night hoping for dawn
wishing for light and courage born
but step, and step, here hold my hand
there, you see, the sun rises again...

Untouchable

She looked in the mirror
In the gleam of the glass
In the faces of her terror
Of the darkness of her past
And she closed her eyes
Where she dreamt of paradise
Of a thousand stars shining so high
Of raindrops falling where she lie
She searched the sky for peacefulness
And the clouds offer her tenderness
In her mind the mountain looms protectiveness
In her mind the wind blows like a caress
A place where no one can touch her now
A place where no one can make her bow

Taking its Toll

There're such memories that are forever etched,
Such memories that time just not forget,
His smiles his laughter and his loving caress,
His cologne his presence and even his blush when he's embarrassed. . .

There's such pain that cuts into your heart,
Such pain that tears your life apart,
A lingering emptiness throughout your soul,
Like a resonating echo taking its toll. . .

Fade

There was once a love like no other,
A love that changed a person for the better,
The strides were bouncier the smiles wider,
The laughter was merrier the eyes shinier..

She thought she had the world at her feet,
Oh happiness and joy that came in leaps,
She thought that love was all it takes,
Guess she never thought that love could fade...
