Having you this close was the sweetest of feelings
I had a silence of expression but my voice was loud in my body language
It's why I hugged you tight and didn't want to let go
It's why I kept giggling at everything you said like it all came with humor
It's why I sat next to you
To feel your fragrance
To feel your breath on my neck
To hear your heartbeat
It's why I stare at those eyes at midnight for they steal the spotlight in the dark as the shiniest stars

I like  calligraphy
It's more like how your voice sings to me
Beautiful and sweet
Is it honey and you have a bee hive in your voice box
Baby you got me locked up in an ice berg
What's strange I'm not freezing
This love warms me up
Oh God! I love how you make me
Happy and proud
I love you and will never stop
If love is something I'm catching its because you let me run after you
In the day and night
Flowers bloom and don't die
You are the crystal that's gonna purify my soul
Lay next to me baby mama
I'm yours and you are mine
Love you to the moon and back
It's forever love💕

Compel me to love you more even when I don't love you less
My blood holds all the strength to help you lift this world in one hand
Kiss me with unusual fervour
On the lips ,on the neck
Let our bodies dance to the music of the irresistible touch
Let's live thousands of years and more
Not worrying about getting old for we still look younger in each other's eyes
Let's race with the wind and catch up with time so that it won't steal the beautiful moment at hand
Me and you
Bundle of joy
So make me a vampire too

A little sugar in my coffee
A little salt in my sauce
Will this life be any better
Without you in my arms
These days and night have been different
As the distance keeps growing
I'm trembling in the sun
As i keep sobbing
Baby what happened to our beautiful dream
The story of the knight and the princess
Where your father king but never approved our little secret
somehow you risked it all just to be with me
In the gardens we wrote poetry and painted pictures of how we would live the rest of our lives together
Waking up with you in my sight
Wake up with me making you breakfast
It's been weeks without a hello
Since the break up
I can't stop reading the letters
Maybe we just needed some space from each other
Maybe it's true we don't belong together
But who decided what we choose
Not even the weather
That's why i will run to you like a panther
I miss the old days and seeing you in my sweater
I miss you and its a call i can't ignore
Just come back home
Mend what's broken
Life without you is a dead end

Can you feel the sweet sun on your skin
Can you see its smile in the sky as it spreads out
Can you see the birds fly as well
Singing beautifully
Can you feel the morning you couldn't wait to wake up in from last night
Can you smell the sweet waft of morning coffee
Can you hear the noise in the city from car engines and welding machines
If you can
Be grateful
You have made it to a new day
Living in the tomorrow you promised yourself yesterday
It's a new day
Let's celebrate

I loved a girl once
She was everything I ever wished for
She knew how to brighten my days
Knew how to make me smile even when it was hard to beat the frown

I loved a girl once
We took photos and kept them in an album
Each time she was away
I could look at them and imagine she was near

I loved a girl once
She told me she loved me back
Did she?
My jealousy overrode me all the time
My mind was an architect of insecurities
And so each bright day got dark
Like our love flame was out of fuel

I loved a girl once
Yes I loved her
But that love was short lived
She walked away from me and never looked back
For reasons unclear
Only left me with questions
Was it love?
If it was, was it true or fake
Because it withered so fast without the sun even being harsh on it.

What if

All we are living today is a story about our past that we are telling to someone

I'm in love with Sia
Each song she sings it's like she wrote it for me
I like the truth she puts out
I like that despite her sickness, it didn't prevent her from pushing on with her dreams
If she was a flower, my room would be a garden of flowers
She has a magical voice
I want my heart to always beat in unison with her music
For it gives me peace

Easter egg
I found you by the river in a basket
It reminded me of Moses'story
Like you are here to liberate us from slavery
There was something about your beauty I couldn't fight
A sweet mellow played on as we locked eyes
A flash of light that opened the skies came from your skin
Like  you are not a born of this world
Almost made my eyes blind
Like you are a magic stone I should use to turn my life around
So here's the thing
What's your name?
What's your story?
Where are you from?
Where do you live?
Can we date?
I can sing, I can write how about you?
Smiles shying from my sight
Leaves me in wonder and asking more
Are you an angel
She said,
"Maybe so behave.
Only here to tell you a king from the tribe of David will die today and resurrect after three days.
So give your life to Christ and nothing will be the same again"
And then she disappeared.
Her chorus still lingers in my ears.
So exalt his name for he's here to change your life and your sins are forgiven and forgotten
Happy Easter holidays

I don't want love for the wrong reasons
Just to get over you
I want to have a different taste of the champagne that love could pour me
I want to get drunk in love that I only say her name and not yours
I want to make new memories and  let go of ones we had
I don't want to fail her like I did with you
I want to make her the happiest girl in this world
So please get out of my head
For the space in my heart that once belonged to you is now filled with her and there no turning back

Sunflower
A shine of the Indian complexion from your skin
Like you were dipped in gold
And maybe that's why I find myself bedazzled by you
For you are truly an angel
Beautiful and intelligent
With a sultry smile enough to make the sun shine
And leave the sunflowers still beautiful
I guess you are my sunflower
With that brown soft skin
You smile same way its petals stretch out
From afar a glimpse of the field on which you grow leaves me falling in love with you more and more

Crazy
Like **** from Jamaica
She gets me high
On tides on which I see the world in a different way
Beautiful and peaceful
One that has never tasted the spit of war
She makes me laugh all the time
And never lets a tear fall out of my eyes
She knows me too well to be my best friend
A companion with whom we can build a better world
And yet I still choose to just be friends with her
For I haven't felt those butterflies yet
Crazy she is
To crush my car with a baseball bat if I don't choose her side
Sometimes I feel she needs to see a psychiatrist
But no that craziness is aroused by the bond we share
Being crazy friends forever

Emmanuel
God is with us
And he's never left us
Your birth was proof to that covenant
A handsome boy born to beautiful parents whose prayers were answered
Grew up with adoration for art
And started drawing the super heroes in the comic books
Like you pictured yourself a superhero one day
You made friends and played football
Learned to play the guitar and wrote some songs
Gave the world all it needed to feel alive
And that was your golden smile
Your ambitions are still strong
You hold onto the childhood promises you made to yourself
To make the world a better place
The world is waiting for you to take the step
Just don't look back when you start

Love must have fooled me with others but you
I still feel your touch on my skin
Your kisses on my neck
Your breath when you sleep
I still hear your heart beat while closer to my chest
I still have those beautiful dreams every night
I wake up with you on my mind
Like there's no one I have loved like I loved you

Eyes collide
Feelings multiply
On the gold coast we met
Like she was the best jewellery ever made
She was proof that the beauty tribe wasn't extinct
Somehow I knew I would find her
When I asked the mirror on the wall
Who my better half would be
She was just as I imagined
Scintillating  mellifluous voice that etched with the wind
Brown eyes that held her innocent spirit
Unapologetic exquisite looks marvelled from heavenly soils
Six feet tall with a voluptuous figure
I was hoping my feelings were perceptible and could resonate in her soul
Guess I was too late
She was already taken before I took my first step
Memories of her linger on
I still worship her for she's still the goddess of beauty
One not even Mona Lisa could match
I'm afraid I haven't moved on
She's still the one I love

Brimming with lachrymose does not define you as weak
Blades lacerating and make you bleed
The heat of the pain giving you distress
Like a lion, you fight it and don't let it own your body and make you numb
You are the strongest person I know
You are a Knight but you don't live by your sword
You live by your truth
Gone are the days when success of a woman was beyond the pale
When they said you couldn't
You stood with hands at akimbo and said "watch me do this"
It's not hard to notice the impeccable beauty and qualities you exhibit
Kindness and generosity
Such charisma is contagious
Did I tell you, your smile is Infectious
When you speak, the whole world listens
I believe in the bro code
Doesn't mean I will hurt a lady
Will always cheer you up on each and every victory
You repel the dogma and make your own rules
Each time you are around it feels like school
'Cause there's something new we learn from you
You that breathed a life in me
Will find a way for me
That's why I believe you are God's greatest creation
God's master piece
I have a seed growing called hope inside of me
For a better world
And it starts with letting you in
Something unquestionable is the strength of a woman

I like the dark with the moon shining on its mouth
Joy in her eyes that spark a melody of love in my heart
The shape of her curves
Feel of her touch that whisks me thousands of miles from this world
I like serenading her for she's mine and I like that we belong and are each other's missing pieces
I like staring at my black queen for she's gold that adds glamour to my life
Darling listen to the voice of the heart
You are  mi amor

Do feelings spike up like pressure in a gas tank
Do they become a bomb and sometimes explode
Or someone is always there to detonate them before they do
Are they that harsh to take my life to a grave
And leave me cursing forever
Are they meant to hurt in the first place when expectations go blind
Or they are just another episode of illusions we we can't escape

There was a blank space in my story that you helped fill
A broken me that you helped fix
A cheerful smile you helped build
A beautiful mind you helped grow
There was that chorus in your voice that I fell for
I saw light in my life by staring at your eyes
I could see my future designed already
Maybe it was written in the scripts
That we would meet in a mysterious way
I love the tide on which we jumped
The music that played as we kissed
Memories we made
I didn't picture me as one that would sweep you off your feet
Somehow I got lost in every verse
You helped me make it out of the maze
That's how I knew you were the one
I needn't look any further
You are the one for me and will always be

Wanna  see the stars
When will the night come
Wanna make a wish
Hope they listen and make it come true
I've been racing with the wind
I never caught its speed
Left me cold
I need some warmth
Will I get a hug when I have no friends
It's crazy each day that comes.
I feel all alone.
Like this world ain't my own
I need help
I'm fighting all these demons in my head
On my own.
Hope I win the battle
Don't just stand there and watch me fall

A song for freedom
For we are helpless with no ambition
Wishing we could see the vision
Jump on the next train to freedom
When the cage is finally open
And we can stretch our hands
And say we are finally free
To explore beyond the horizon
Race for the galaxies
Swim like the dolphins with so much peace and pleasure
Stand on the highest mountain just to see the world
Sigh with wonder of how amazed you are
For all that was blurred is clear
And the world is all yours
And you are the master of your own happiness
The feel of freedom is so far gone
That I forgot its touch

Like the tide, I followed the moon
Away from an island that was my home
To see a world I had been locked away from
The North star gave me directions
As I sailed hoping to find
Something real
Something beautiful
Something true
Something only you had
And that was love

Ravishing Queen
Not in my once upon a time but at all times
Flies fearlessly like a butterfly
Ready to explore the world and never loses her true North
She's made a life for herself and her hands have been blessed with a midas touch
I've seen her cry before and she's made that go away
She's proven to be resilient and to be made of steel
She's a wonder woman trying to save the world even when she's lost everything
Kindness, care and empathy are her portion and I've had a sip
She's a tower of strength and lady of great wisdom
She's an African queen

It's never Halloween
But the demons are always out.
Turning my good days into bad ones

Hello poetry,

It's me your old friend
Do you still care about me?
Do you think of me when you are alone like I do with you?
Where did you go to that it's hard to come visit?
Do you miss our times together?

I compliment you in the day for your beauty
And in the night for your glow
I compliment you in a song for you are hard to forget
I'm grateful for your warmth and company when I felt alone
For in those dark rooms, we wrote beautiful poems together and I felt less alone
I can't imagine my life without you
Please come back home

Signed the faded poet

You've been counting days you've spent at home
I've been counting days I have missed seeing your face

You've been care free smiling and grinning
I have been praying you experience that happiness each day of your life

You've been singing songs most about love
I have been watching and wishing those were for my heart long as they brought no scars along

You've been taking photographs for your phone to keep
I've been wishing I were in those too

You've always sounded beautiful and sweet and sometimes I wished you were candy.

You've been looking beautiful
My looks have been fading

I was too silent but these feelings haunted me and I couldn't fight them

You  look beautiful in every photograph you take
I see the curves too where I wish my hands could fall whenever we hug

You've been quiet girl and I've been missing you

Love in a blink
No brakes to stop you from falling
For a stranger
Whom now you know by looks but not name

Love in a moment
Now that you know her name and story
You know what she does on Saturday and you're hoping to see her on Saturday night
To take her to your favourite spot

Love in smiles
Two young people so in love
Convinced that destiny let them walk into each other

Love in a shadow
Blades cutting through what was strong
Putting holes and creating wounds
Fights and disagreements like you all rushed and should have waited

Love in a flame
Still dancing to the rhythms
To where the winds blow it
Never losing it's fuel
Lighting up the dark
