Everywhere I go
My rear is there for me
To give comfort when I sit
Should I decide to bend the knee

I take my wife's advice
And keep my cheeks pinched tight
So everywhere I go
My brains don't spill out on the floor

Its raining outside
The frogs croak
pitter patter on leaves
My heart is broke

The dark grey skies
They weep at my pain
I do not know why
She left me alone in the rain

The smell of the night bloom
Reminds me of her perfume
Her fragrance, her radiance
She left me too soon

The thunder rolls
The lightning flashed
the torrent, it pours
My world just crashed

What did i do wrong?
When did the tune go out of our song?
Was i too quick to judge her?
Was i really wrong?

Dont know why she left me
I guess it was meant to be
Will just say a silent prayer
To just keep her safe and happy!

My mind is numb
refuses to think
My eyes are hollow
They refuse to blink

I am haunted
By my fears, real and imaginary
My heart beats fast
The Nightmares are scary

I cry in my sleep
I groan and i moan
My dreams look real
I dream my life is gone

I feel like a spirit
Floating in a strange world
My pain is real
Everything else is a blur

I hope i survive this
My thoughts could ****
I hope to see tomorrow
Who knows if i will.

The Night Maiden

Look at the vermillion sky
Marshmellowy clouds don a reddish hue
The gentle breeze blows
Telling of stories, old and new

Darkness falls,
the cicada sings
The sky is still
Who knows what the night will bring

I wait for her in the stillness of the night
I wait for her under the starlight sky
She keeps me waiting,
I do wonder why.

Then she comes,
Floating with the wind
Her glance, her touch, her smile
Reminds me of forbidden sins

I reach out to touch her
I reach out with all my might
Her laughter tinkles in the air
And then..................
She vanishes into the night.

The night sky beckons
I raise my hands to the sky
I am ready, i am ready
I am ready to fly

Fly on wings of joy
Soar on the winds of hope
Into the clear dark night
I can feel my wings grow

The winds grow strong
The sky calls
I soar over the hills and dales
Fly over rapids and falls

The wind whistles in my ear
The clouds play hide and seek
My mind knows no fear
My soul is at peace

I know i am trapped in this life
But nothing can stop my mind from flying
My soul will always remain free
Though today i am dying!

Hopes and Fears!

With memories of yesterday
And hopes of tomorrow
I live today,
With a lil joy and a lil sorrow.

All one needs is some peace
A life away from worries and care
Taking each day as it comes
Wishing for joys to share.

My fears, they come dark and strong
How do i weather the storm
Will they continue to haunt me
Will this be the new norm?

Yet the day will surely come,
the phoenix will again fly
But until that day and time
I shall wait and guard the sky!
