From Lingering To Moving

From Lingering To Moving

Three thirty in the morning I stare in the dark
Nowhere is a cool breeze blowing
The ceiling fan rotates
Carrying my thoughts ever so gently
Time washes away memories
When I roamed a playing field
And a ball rolled...

The Oxford

In the hushed cloisters where wisdom dreams,
Oxford's ancient spires rise, it seems,
A tapestry of time and thought,
Inscribed in each stone, deeply wrought.

Beneath the arches, whispers float,
Echoes of scholars, long remote,
Their fervent...

Flower in the dark.

Flower in the dark
Grey, peeling open
Flower in the park
In the wide open
Petals cold of spark
Frozen and open
Silent of mind
Slowly open
Till he is seen
Third eye open
Now he awakens
Mind open
Now he thinks
Thoughts open
Now he shines...

Risk Taking

If loving you is a mistake,
then a risk I want to take,
for success doesn't come without ache,
don't worry I'll make this a piece of cake,
by always showing love without a break,
because nothing about me is fake,
for my word is something...

Closure

I ain't playing games no more,
my heart's finally closing its door,
protecting what's left at the core,
while picking up pieces off the floor,
CUZ all you did was make love a chore,
and from the pain, I'm just too sore,
for a new start it's...

Seize the Moment

Grab my hand and stand forever by my side,
let me be your lover, helper, protector and guide,
for our paths crossed again, Is this fate?
Will you fuse with me and become my soul-mate?
CUZ I want to heal and change your heart's view,
and show it...

Ink Heart

My rhyme is sick for my words can flow, love through my poetry does really show,
and how fast my heart writes is crazy,
one thing for sure is my mind ain't lazy,
CUZ I can mix it up like there's no tomorrow,
family, faith, love or even pain and...

Love me love me not

Love me love me not.
Love isn’t what it seems to be.
I thought I knew what love was.
Love me love me not.
Never thought for a minute that I wasn’t loved.
Love me in the sunshine.
Love me in the dark.
Love me I said.
Love me not.
I wanted...

Fantasy

Can I be honest without being a pest,
there's a thought in my head where it's nest,
for it is something that I must confess,
since my life has been on this quest,
meeting u I knew I had the very best,
and in my heart I am truly blessed,
do let...

Either Way

Little things can be a big impact.
Veering off course can keep u on track.
Being blind can make you see.
Love can spit a heart in two.
A bird can fall to there death.
The strongest can be broke.
Death can save you.
The sky really ain't the...

IM ON FIRE

IM ON FIRE


The fire's burning, burning down inside
I'm on fire for Grace, I'll not hide
Let me shine, God let it shine
This burning fire of Light of mine

It's been down to just an ember
So dim I can hardly remember
Cause I didn't...

Crocodile.

Crocodile.

The antediluvian suriyan
with exposing sharp teeth
flots on Indian river,umpteenth.

Someone can assume
a floating log on the water surface
from a distance.

So one can be easily trapped
with this seductive act
if the eyes...
