Rage
Something hot and fierce
Swells up inside me
My breathing is short and fast
As my head boils and sizzles
From the heat of my body
Scorching and it is scalding
This rage I have inside me
Is overwhelming my soul
I lift my head, roaring
Deafening like the thunders
I take a deep breath
Slowing my heart beat
Hand over my chest
As I push the rage
Down, all the way down
Till the fire is out

Lonely Hours
These lonely hours
Very late at night
Slowly, but steadily
Creep in with the shadows
Coming unnoticed
And with no welcome
Melancholy sets in
The night getting darker
The heartaches of pain
Come flooding in waves
Many tears were shed
With cries in the night
The rare moments like these
Filled with emotion
At lonely hours
Very late at night

Sweet
The kisses you gave me
Oh how they were so sweet
All the times spent with you
They are all so precious
Hearing your loud and euphonious laugh
Is better than Beethoven’s symphonies
Just seeing your lovely smile
Takes all my worries away
It’s hard to believe
That those times are gone
It all seems just like yesterday
That I was still holding your hand
The kisses you gave me
Oh how they were so sweet

Thinking
Sitting here
Just staring
At the wall
Blank and white
Thinking about the past
And what I could have changed
Thinking about the present
How I can be better
Thinking about the future
Of what it has in store
I sighed and took a breath
Thinking about it all

Content
I woke up sore
Shower is cold
I missed breakfast
Working late
I’m halfway through the week
Weekend is far away
But I’m content
I have family
I have all my friends
I can breathe
I have sleep
All my needs
Are fulfilled
My life isn’t perfect
But I’m content with it

See a World
I close my eyes
To see a world
Where there is nothing wrong
Everything is perfect
Hunger is unheard of
World wars never happened
People are in harmony
And loving is natural
Everyone is happy
Smiles on everyone’s face
Everything I ever wanted
All of my wants, it is all here
All the dreams I had
In here, they are real
Then I jolt back to reality
And I’m back to where I was before

Storm
Inside, very deep inside
The very depths of my heart
There is a storm
Out of control
The wind is getting violent
My vision is limited
My ears are ringing
With roaring thunders
Drops of rain begin to hit me
Each one, bringing many more
Very quickly
My clothes are soaked
The wind, now screaming and raging
As if spurred on by the devil
The thunder strikes near
Almost hitting me
With both my hands in front of me
I take a step, then another
Searching for a way out
Of the storm in my heart
We’ve all been through storms. But the hardest storms to go through are the ones in our hearts.

Moments
All the times when you cry
And tears just keep flowing
Also when you’re just laughing
And your stomach starts to hurt
Times when you’re so lonely
Your heart begins aching
Also when you’re so happy
That it just overflows
All the times you were angry
And your vision gets clouded
Times you’re just daydreaming
About your future plans
It’s moments like these
That make up our lives

Seasons
Spring is the time of new life
Death, but a lost memory
Life, is once again, renewed
The light of hope shines brightly

Summer is the time of youth
Blazing along with the sun
The memories made with friends
Will burn longer than summer

Fall is the peak of your prime
Body at maturity
The mind is filled with wisdom
But the end, is very close

Winter is when death comes down
Slowly, and gently, wrapping
The earth in its cold embrace
Putting everything to sleep

Connection
A connection that’s so profound
That can’t be explained with mere words
A bond that is incomprehensible
A link that can last and will never break
A relationship that is authentic
One that is genuine to the core
A connection that’s real
Is what I’m looking for

Time
Seconds gone in a blink
Hours are just so brief
Days are momentary
Months are so short lived
Years just disappear
Life is so fleeting

Wishing
I lay here on the grass
Looking up at the sky
Eyes moving and searching
For that rare shooting star
I took a breathe, deep and slow
My chest rising, and falling
A minute passes by
And then another one
Then a streak of light
Zips across the sky
I close my eyes
Making my wish
Wishing for someone out there
Who’s also wishing for me
I open my eyes
And I’m still wishing
May 2020 · 116
Mirror
I lift my head up and look
To see my own reflection
Everything on the surface
Laid to bare, hiding nothing
All blemish the eye can see
Judged for every little thing
All they see is the exterior
Everything inside, never seen
Making first impressions
Wrong way too many times
The mirror is so misleading
Because it doesn’t show everything
May 2020 · 86
Wind
It cools my face
As it hits me
It causes the trees to sway
As if they were in a dance
Windmills begin spinning
Urged on by the strong force
At times it’s ever so pleasant
And other times it’s too fierce
Wind, oh wind
So fickle

Door
There’s the door
Closed, of course
I stand in front of it
With my hand hovering
Just above the doorknob
My hand grips it, then stops
My mind hesitates
To open the door
I step back, breathing in relief
Tomorrow, I’ll open the door
Yes, tomorrow I’ll do it
I’ll wait until tomorrow
May 2020 · 74
Pressure
There’s a throbbing in my head
Beating loud, and very slow
I try to catch my breathing
Instead, I end up gasping
My body starts to get hot
The sweat starts, and doesn’t stop
My limbs feel heavy, like lead
I take each step, with struggle
This pressure that’s around me
It’s overwhelming my soul
Day after day, it’s the same
This life of mine, is so harsh
But still, I don’t stop, nor quit
I go, in search of a hope

Writer’s Block
I write down the words
But it doesn’t fit
My mind is scrambling
While my hand is frozen
With a fresh, new pencil
And a blank paper
Then my mind goes blank
I hate writer’s block

Covid Nineteen
Feeling so exhausted
And I’m just coughing dry
My head is getting so hot
But somehow I’m feeling cold
Now I find it hard to breathe
And my throat is feeling sore
I don’t know what is wrong with me
Gee, I think it’s covid nineteen

I Love You
I could say the sweetest things
And tell you how I love you
Give you anything you ever wanted
Just to make sure you’re happy forever
But I’m not good with words
And my money is short
So all I can give you
Is my life and my heart
And tell you I love you

I Wish
The butterflies come
when I think of you
I feel so self-conscious
whenever you’re around
Gosh, you are so gorgeous
and I think you’re perfect
I feel so frustrated
I don’t know what to do
I wish I could do more
than just say I love you

Happy Birthday
It’s finally almost here!
Your very own special day!
You get to be a year older
and say that you’ve matured
No matter how much you change
I’ll always keep liking you
I know it’s early
but Happy Birthday!
Feb 2018 · 139
Happy Valentine’s Day
I could say so many things
and talk about my feelings
But I am terrible with words
And it’s like I’m going backwards
So it’s better if I show you
Sorry what I have is so few
Happy Valentine’s Day

Cake
What is this I smell?
So strong, and so rich!
It feels so familiar
My senses are muddled
I used my nose to be my guide
Ah it smells so fragrant and sweet!
I must know what it is!
Now I’m in the kitchen
There it is just freshly baked
Ah of course, it was just cake

All I can think about
You’re so hard to get to know
and I’m feeling so restless
Your face just seems to glow
and it leaves me, breathless
Hearing you laugh is so sweet
And your smile is so stunning
Talking to you my heart gets offbeat
And sometimes I just feel like running
I really don’t know what I should do
When all I can think about is you
Feb 2018 · 117
So many things
So many things I want to say
But somehow I keep them at bay
Looking at you, my mind begins drifting
And I fail at repressing this feeling
Everyday I keep holding myself back
And I don’t know how to get back on track
I really don’t know if I’m rushing
When my emotions are just gushing
Though the times may be few
I like talking to you
Feb 2018 · 115
I will have to prove
My heart beats a little faster, whenever I am around you
When I want to see something beautiful, you are the one I look to
Hearing your voice is so lovely
Which makes my feelings get fuzzy
You’re someone I hold so dear
Even when things are unclear
Seeing you happy is something I love
And it is something I will have to prove
Feb 2018 · 107
I didn't know
I didn’t know you had blue eyes
That were beautiful like the skies
The dimples when you smile
It makes my day worthwhile
I think you are really pretty
Especially when you’re happy
Feb 2018 · 127
Even if
I like you so much, that my feelings become so overwhelming
I hope you feel as such, for losing you would be devastating
I’m always thinking of you, and how I can make you smile
The moments we have are so few, so let’s make them worthwhile
I feel like a failure, but you still think I’m worth something
The worst is in my nature, and you are my everything
My emotions are nearly bursting
My heart being filled with flames burning
I don’t wanna give up on you
Even if I fail and fall through
Feb 2018 · 114
If only
My love for you is great
if only you felt the same
You make my sore heart beat
sadly you don’t know my name
Seeing you smile lifts my spirit
if only I could keep seeing it more
My love for you is implicit
but is it even worth it anymore?
My love for you is great
if only you felt the same
Feb 2018 · 95
My heart stops
My heart stops, and leaps
as I look at you
Your smile, it’s so beautiful
I end up being spellbind
Your laugh, is a melody
which I will never tire of
Being with you is so very special
I pray that it isn’t artificial
Feb 2018 · 102
Looking Up
I keep trying to look up
but It’s hard not to look down
I keep searching for the sun
but all I see are the clouds
I keep hoping for something better
but I’m always dismayed in the end
I really like talking to you
for you give me hope in this life
I pray that this friendship we built
will not end with sorrow and guilt
Feb 2018 · 113
They Say
They say true love endures
mine will always be yours
Please forgive my many defects
nearly all my actions reflects
My love that’s unceasing
which will never be dying
Jan 2018 · 134
I try
You know I try so hard
but you’re always on guard
It’s a long, bumpy road
let me carry your load
I don’t wanna lose you
let us persevere through
to our unknown future
It’ll be an adventure
Jan 2018 · 130
Losing you
I feel so scared, of losing you
You’ll be leaving, after this year
Remember when I declared? Because you never knew
My love for you is unceasing, I hold you so dear
My thoughts are filled of you, from day to day
I won’t forget, how you cared about me
I wonder if your words are true? I hope and pray
I dread of the sunset, of our days so carefree
My love is still growing
And I’ll still be hoping
Jan 2018 · 121
Hope
It’s the light in the darkness
when you feel very heartless
It gives you reason to keep on going
when everything around you is dying
It’s the rope that keeps you from falling
to keep you off the ground from crawling
Hope is so crucial
when life is brutal
Jan 2018 · 116
Memories
So many fond memories
I can remember for centuries
A great many of family
Where time passed by happily
Also the fun times with friends
Which past by like the winds
The memories may be few
But my favorite is of you
Jan 2018 · 107
Laughter
It feels so wonderful
and it’s so powerful
It sounds so very silly
it’s involuntarily
It leaves behind a smile
it’ll be there for awhile
Laughter is satisfying
sometimes it’ll leave you crying
Jan 2018 · 158
Remember me?
My heart aches
whenever I start to think of you
My heart shakes
but I wonder if you have any clue
My heart longs for your very presence
because of the void inside
Your laugh is the alluring essence
which made me decide
to get to know you
and to hear you laugh again
My love for you grew
which words cannot explain
Oh my heart is still achy
but I wonder if you even remember me?
Jan 2018 · 124
My love
A fire will die
with no fuel
A plant will wither
with no water
A child will cry
with no mother
But my love for you
needs nothing to survive

— The End —
