You and I
Well we could talk about lemons for hours on end
Yeah it’s got me thinking
Maybe we can be more than just friends

You say I’m no fun
Cause you wanted to send me a letter
But I said no
A picture of a letter is better
So you sent me that instead

(Chorus)
I just want you to know
You’re still in my head
Even long after
The messages are read
Cause you’re like my favourite song
You’re close to my heart
Cause I could never let myself forget you

You know you make me laugh
With all the weird things that you say
You know I find it strange though
Cause we think the same way
We’re so weird

[Chorus]

You say you’re without emotion
Well no need for commotion
We can just keep procrastinating
**** what’ll I rhyme with that

You said no one’s ever written you a love song before
Well no you can’t say that anymore…

Posy petal’d tear drops
on saffron colored morns
fall deep in the shadows
where sunshine is only a reflection
of the beauty once shared
~
Clouded days sing dreary sonnets
and all other butterflies are sad,
for those cherished wings
of brilliant colors
are gone from this field
~
Now a misty shade of gray
lingering in the thoughts
of one so missed…
finds the garden gates locked,
never to open again
~
Where rainbows once painted blue hydrangea skies
and daffodil promises carried our smiles,
sorrow now gathers in shapeless corners,
missing this butterfly
all had so come to adore
~
*and the earth weeps…
Today is one of the saddest days in a good friend's life. I wrote this poem for her. My heart breaks for you.

We got soul
We got life
       O

But
We run for money ($$)
Couple of papers
With some denominations
Ruling us

We are having no time
To know about sufferings
Of others

24 hours a day
Still no time
To have something
For us

Running for the money
M for money
Rich becoming Richer
Poor becoming poorer

But who will take those
Papers at the end

We come like a ray
And leave like a ray

No baggages are allowed
You have to take your
Final flight
No medicine No food
Thought of other side of life
A reality that deviates me
From this world
Why we are different
Based on the money we own
At the end all have
The same flight journey.

your light brings
joy on a summer's night
playfully dancing in the dark

I am saddened by
your dimming light
as you approach eternal night

your life is finite
but the joy your light has brought
will burn through eternity

It's a kiss
you can sink into
forgetting time
unable to remember
if it's day or night.
Plump, full mouths
lips
moist,
parted
Tips of tongues,  teasing
tasting
enticing.
Our mouths
are busy
but my body
feels jolts of electricity
elsewhere,  in other places

and we've barely even begun!

oh come sing a song
a song for me
oh come sing a song
one with a sweet melody  

sing your song of flowers
adorning the meadow's lea
sing of their pretty colors
so mirthfully

oh come sing a song
a song for me
oh come sing a song
one with a sweet melody

sing your song of rainbows
arching the skies in lovely canopies
sing of their joyous hues
in a tone so happy

oh come sing a song
a song for me
oh come sing a song
one with a sweet melody

Poetic T
If she could look through my eyes
See what I see,
What she is to me
If she felt my heart
Felt how it feels when she is next to me
What it means,
If she knew what little things
Put a smile upon my face,
Her laughter,
Her smile,
Her sneeze,
So cute, I see things she doesn't see
I could hold her for a lifetime
I would love her for eternity
If she were to see just for a moment
Love,
Loyalty,
My heart,
She would know what she means to me..

A moment indulged rough-and-tumble,
A new frustration bloomed
As a kite cut off when swing on air
Sandbars cut in the velocity of river

She went to honey moon,
My speed less time ceased and stuck
moving from fire to cold
At the end, spring moreover fade-out

Dream lies under disaster,
You will not come back again
Shadow clouds strikes on dark clouds,
Dream blended as ice to rain drops

Cats and dogs rain flooded,
over river flood plain
Clouds are spreading with,
firing through the sky, again and again -

@ Musfiq us shaleheen
Sometimes I suppose to feel like this.

He is the painter,
painting images of
desperate desire
and vistas of love
and secret knowledge,
upon her skin.

Each patient and
skillful brushstroke,
weaves obscure
and cryptic symbols
in subtle, vibrant
tones upon the
supple texture of
her curving form.

She is a leather bound
notebook,
swelling with promise
of verses and poems
yet to be birthed.

He is the quill,
his ink flowing
abundantly,
spilling fertile words...

filling her every page.

I see,
I know,
I feel,
I recognize your pain.

All that you attempt to hide
from the world is a gloriously
open book...for me.

For, you see, I live in that
same pain as well.

We are neighbors, you
and I, though you
don't seem to know it.

We share adjoining rooms
there...like bookends,
holding up the spined
volumes of our
injured, fragile
lives.

But no fear,
for what I've seen
and all I know..of you...
will never leave my
sight and will never
be discarded or
disclosed to others
who will never,
could never...
truly understand.

You mean more to me
than even I dare admit,
and you always inspire
worlds of thought,
as you have carved
yourself a unique
space in this tattered
heart....
and I will protect this
'gift' of you...

as long as I draw breath.

Fragile petals
saffron sighs
blushing sunsets
butterflies
silver tea cups
marmalade
piano keys
songs we played
whispered wishes
morning dew
twilight kisses
thoughts of you
hummingbirds
butter creams
beating hearts
midnight dreams
poetry
phrases rhymed
words of love
summertime
promises
skies of blue
you and me
*forever true
