Alluring is
the beauty of
a gorgeous goddess,
with a beautiful smile.
Her figure
like a dream.
Sleek movement
of her gait is
something to behold.
She shines like
the morning sun
and sets like
the evening.
The beautiful Sunset
and the solitary bird
seek to fly together.
Together at eventide
we can sail
towards the morning.
As the moon
and the stars
bears witness
to our love
in the dark.
The light of
divine love are
waiting for us
with immense gratitude.
To fulfill
the promise
our hearts made.
Triumphing every
circumstances that
threatens our happiness.
Love is all
that matters.
It is more
than vain glory,
It is better
than the arrogance
of riches.
It is a comforting
wealth of the heart.
It brings laughter
and solace to the soul.
Love is like
a symphony music.
Two hearts in
love dance together.
He who has
love is wealthy.
Abundance and
grace easily floats
towards him.
Love it is.

The light walks
into the deep dark
and the darkness
always yields.
In the midst
of darkness within
and without comes
the glorious light.
It comes to
dismiss darkness
and make it
disappear to emptiness.
All emptiness of
the mind is
darkness and a vacuum,
affecting emotional
and physical,
they depicts the
absence of light.
There is
something strange
about the
flickering golden light.
The illuminance and
incandescence of light
however small,
even in the
deep dark place
suddenly glows in
the presence of
darkness,
pushing the dark
gently into oblivion.
But the darkness exists
to explain the light.
Abject darkness
does not die,
though dead.
It rises up
again in the cloud
like the unicorn
but seeks out
the light immensely
to prove itself.

Everyone i love
just left.
Like a sudden
conventional rain
that just fell
and leaves
no trace on
the ground.
All those that
matters in my
life left.
Like the tempest
of the east wind
that comes with
the storm.
They made me
feel like a *****.
Like a skunk
with an awful smell.
Like one who
unknowingly and
accidentally defecated
on his pants.
With a mask
over my face,
i walked around
like a fugitive,
hiding shamefully
like a criminal
behind the mask.
I don't know
how i got to
this place of
emptiness and
loneliness.
Is there just
no one out
there for me.
My heart hurts
so bad and
held more mystery
than even the
darkest jungle.
I will give
anything for the
return of all
of you again.
I bet it will
all be different
this time.
Now the sea
is calm,
the reef exposed,
the sky blue,
with lashing of pink,
loops down,
creating magically
the beautiful lining
of lush lustre.

When you look
up into the sky
at night,
have you ever
imagined shuttling
into the universe.
Like the mind
of the poet
that runs all
over the space
and the universe
in fantasy mode.
Beautiful to feel
the throbbing of
the universe as
the beating of
a heart beat.
The subtle echo
of the sound
penetrates silently
into our being.
The words are
as smooth as silk.
Coming from the
realm beyond our sphere,
the universe reflecting
on the mirror
of the mind
with thoughts so
profound and powerful
floods the heart
with words so
serene to appease
the ears with tranquility.
The mouth agaped
as if drunk,
satisfied and comforted.

In this
strange city
where everyone
is corrupt and
must survive
by crooked way.
People around
are suspicious
of themselves.
You also
often think
of the trouble
and tricks of
the cunning
craftiness ones.
To avoid them
is difficult.
Once you give
warmth to the
wrong person,
you lose all.
You will never
know the sound
of the song
of your own
heart and voice.
The infinite beauty
of your essence
will melt away.
But beware of
the quiet man
who always keeps
quiet in the
midst of others.
For while others
speak and blab,
he watches.
And while others
act out their follies,
he plans.
And when they
finally rest,
he strikes.

As you grow
and bloom,
sturdy like a tree,
you are constant
in your love,
and not fickle
And flowing like
the stream,
meandering towards
the ocean,
you have always
been there for me.
Like the morning sun,
you shine,
so bright and beautiful.
Sublime and subtle
just like the
full moon,
you illuminates
even the darkest
days of a
burdened heart.
Strong hearted,
beautiful and divine,
filled with love
and life,
you mesmerize
anyone that comes
to your sphere.
Even as the
blooming sunflower
represents vigorous
vitality,
you also represent
everything that
makes up beauty.
Even as the fish
constantly swims
and never sleeps,
you constantly hover
around and worry
over me.
Like the mother hen
protect and
cover her chicks,
you hide me
under your pavilions.
I feel safe with you.

The lonely moon
is half dark
and half bright.
But you are
beautiful the
way you are.
Like the moon,
you are also
half dark and
half bright.
Filled with the
light and brightness
of the sun,
you glow with
the majestic glory
of a crowned one.
The subtle light
of the new
and full moon
illuminates your life.
You are full
of wisdom and
kindness of a
noble heart.
You sit on
the throne,
but yet you
feel the sadness
and the pain of
a burdened one.
The wind blows,
the rain gathered,
and even the
storm abates but
the sun dried up
the wet ground.
The night has
fallen in daylight,
the leaves smiled,
the thunder clapped
and the heart
is sore afraid.
Even the trees
want to stand still
but the wind
will not let it.
And again the
dream never ends
and don't even exist.
So you think,
but look deeper
again beyond the
realm of this sphere.
Truly i know
nothing of your heart
but let me in,
so I will know.
