A broken heart is like a broken rib
no one can see it,
it hurts every time you breathe.

I would like to pass by your life,
as a beautiful flower that
hung in your life's garden,
And leave a fragrance
that will last you forever.
My leaves may wither,
My flowers may drop,
But never mind,
My seeds will sprout again
to soothe your life,
Heal your wounds,
and broken heart,
with my presence and fragrance.
I would that you understand
and nurture me,
Water me,
Dress me as you would
dress a beautiful garden,
For maybe this,
or another season,
you may or may
not perceive my fragrance,
but I will always return to
heal you of your infirmities.
I only ask that you care
a little bit more like I did.

See how the time flies,
fleeting away before our very eyes,
While we sit down and watch.
The clouds passes by,
The days comes and goes.
The night comes with the hope
of a new dawn.
The twilight appears before
our own eyes with its stars
to comfort our hearts,
The sun shines in the sky,
and sets again to return in the morning.
The moon lights up the night
and then disappears when the lights come.
The birds of the air flies by,
with their new song to cheer us,
The rain falls to water our forests,
and continued not,
It stops.
Ebbs and tides of the ocean comes,
they rise then stops.
Like a ripe fruit on the tree
that drops at it's time,
the new born baby comes with a pomp,
then passes before us as adult
with our tears flowing like the rivers.
Oh what a life!!!
Can we not just love each other,
bear each other's burden.
For this life is nothing but vanities.
We must leave everything we worked
and laboured for behind.
What a waste without love.
Show your love,
Share your Love with someone,
It will better your soul.

All I ever want is
for you to forever remember
me as loving you.

This is for you who profoundly
and magically knows my heart,
To you who wants to possess it,
it's for you who cares,
whose love envelopes
it with tenderness,
ironing and straightening
out the wrinkles
made in there by hurts,
and by the complexities of life.
Step in my Beloved,
possess it,
feed my heart with your love,
as if it's a new born baby,
nurture it back to life.
Sing to me a new song,
a song to soothe my soul.
Only you is what my heart needs
In other to heal.
I am ready and willing.
Let's do it together.
Life,this life is fast slipping away.
Let's make this moment our best.

I behold your face,Divine one,
Come in all your glory.
Come gently,like the wind
Rushing into my being,
Infusing it with
your wondrous power.
Come like the sun
In all it's splendour,
Warming and caressing my heart.
With grandeur and ecstatic bliss,
Holy Spirit divine
shine forth in me.
Come like a gentle rain,
With tenderness,
Cleanse me of all
impurities of mind and body,
Heal and make me whole.
Come tickle my soul.
Come with compassion,
Come with your Joyful tenderness,
Your sensitivity and warmth.
Come fill my being with your light,
your life and your love.

I Was put in an
undignified position,
that made me feel  
as a used ***** rag,
left in a corner to be
picked up again to be reused.
I felt insulted by that act,
caused by a misunderstanding
of my intent.
But that is a painfully disjointed
and misquoted figment
of a nonsensical utterance,
I guess I'll take a long walk
now in a different direction.
