Embrace each other
but in-brace
in love,
touch each others
soul with the
beauty of your heart,
but feel the flutters
of love deeply
as if drunk
on the wine
of your love.
Know but understand
the very mind
and being of
each other.
You are truly in love:
very much in love.
Embrace each other
with everything
that's in you
to be fused
together as one.
Never ever
let go in
your heart the
one you love,
hold on tight
with your hands
as well as
with your embrace.
Your lives are
intertwined and
woven by love.
The thin line
that binds you
together as one
will definitely and
eventually disappear
after a while.
Be interested in
each others
well-being and
nurture yourselves.
Bliss and peace
shall be
your potions.
Don't worry about
the deep end
of the darkness,
but just float.
For your heart
will fly upward
towards the
morning sun to
be invigorated again
after every dip
in life's storm.

Will you walk
with me for
the rest of
your life.
It will take us
a lifetime to
climb to this
mountaintop.
A great walk
together to be
remembered for the
rest of our lives.
It is a
beautiful walk that
never tires you out.
A great walk that
let us explore
the darkness and
the Valley of
our heart and
help us to
find the light
in our love,
and the mountains
and hills of different
segments of our
lives that teaches us
how to safely circumvent
and walk around
our differences,
and understand
the depth of
our illusions and
enlightenment.
A great walk
of faith into
the deep end
of love that
ushers in joy
and gladness.
A walk with
its own complicated
and complex jigsaw
arrangements.
A walk that
let us confront
our vulnerability
and humanness.
Will you still
walk with me my love.
Together we can
fight anything that
threatens our happiness.
Finally at the
end of our days,
when we are
grey with wrinkles
we can joyfully
say we did it.
Will you walk
with me my love.

Will you be mine,
my love,
my friendly lover
and my most
loveliest friend.
Will you be mine,
my candy crush.
A love that
will never die,
a love to
be desired always,
my darling dear.
Will you be mine.
My heart is
waiting for your
entrance into this
place of love.
Come quickly,
my beautiful one.
This place of love
is prepared for you
my precious one.
The sound you
heard is my heart,
full of joy,
beating the drum of
love just for you.
Will you dance
with me my love.
I didn't set
a trap in
my heart as
a cage just
to catch you,
whip you or
make you cry
but i decorated
this heart with
beautiful garland
of flowers and
so much love
in it to
accommodate and
love you.
Accept my kind
offering with love.
Will you be mine,
my love.

Ruffled and unsettled,
pressed by the 
loneliness deep
within my being,
joy flew away
like a bird
and perched on
the window pane
of another.
Pain seeps
from the heart
into the bones
and tissues like
hot oil burning
even the marrows.
Only the birds messed
empty cage remains,
to tell the 
intricate and intriguing
stories of once 
inhabited beautiful island,
called "my heart".
How would i
tell another the
beauty and glory
of the joy
long gone,
left on a
beautiful but now
abandoned heart.
Dropped like an
old used earthenware.
But certainly it is 
still needful and
useful like an 
uncultivated farmland.
And the truth
is that this 
very thing
is really worrisome.
How would anyone
new begin to
understand the depth 
of love once shared
by this very heart.
But is it
really real love or
just another mistake,
because i couldn't
win her heart.
Can true love
really be lost.
It is a terrible
accident for it
almost consume me.
Where is this
love hiding,
whisper now to 
my ears where
your true self abides,
so my whole being 
can truly move on 
and my heart may rest.

As we love
in forgiveness,
speak to me
from your heart,
that place of
love and my
heart will resonate.
Be patient
with me my love
and forgiveness will
be our best friend
and daily break fast.
Embrace me as
if you'll never
see me again
and I'll never
go away.
As a fragrance
of ylang-ylang and
lilac oil perfume,
I'll stick with
you like a
beautiful body odour.
Like a dance
to a serenade
of a beautiful orchestra,
you float like
an angel as
i watch you
take a walk
in the garden
this morning.
You are a
beautiful gift from
the gods and
I'll never finish
unwrapping you
in this lifetime.
Take a chance
with me,
let's sail together
far into the sea
of life and
explore love.
Let's love in
forgiveness and patience.

Now that we stood
at the vortex
of the oblivion,
shall we reconsider
between life and death.
Are we going
to continue with
all this barrage
in the after life.
When we wake up
in the morning sun
of our night,
will there still
be peace or
will doom cover
the whole sky
with children tears.
Or are we
stuck in this
forsaken place
without a helper.
Hiding now  
in the mountains
and caves.
The vortex of
the oblivious beyond
calling out from
between the depths
of the mountains
and the seas,
while the sky,
the moon and
the stars watch.
Inbetween all of
your worries,
even the trees yearns
to be still
but the wind
will not let
the leaves to
be quiet.
Can we truly
keep out the
heat wave plunging
into the soul.
Scary as it
may seem,
entrance to
the great portal
to the vortex
is now open.
And Man will make
himself extinct by
the hands of men.

Your heart is just
so too beautiful,
i want to
be a part
of your cloud.
Not lagging or
drenched by the
ugliness of a
bad weather.
Driven out of
the hole like
a rabbit running
from a wildfire.
Like the bird
flying away in
a hurry from
the tempest sky,
would i have
a place to
perch in your
beautiful heart.
Like a beautiful
red herring tossed
out of the water,
can i at least
get a chance
to live again.
Can i get
a moment to
snuggle up with
you and take
a cup of
marshmallows in
hot chocolate on
this cold lonely night.
Let me be
the gentle breeze,
soothing and calming
to your frail
tired soul.
Let me into
your presence
as an acolyte
to tend your
inner temple,
i won't disturb
your quiet moments.
Just take a
chance on me,
don't you believe
I'm worth the risk.
