forcing myself through
poetry as my glue
holding onto you
but you’re in my way.
Move.
I love myself
so much that
I love you
so much that
you have to
start loving me
so much because
we are but one
beneath our differences,
dreams, and desires.
I can't stop
giving myself to you,
until our souls merged
and immersed in bliss.
You are wonderfully
and beautifully crafted
and configured just for me.
Believe it or not,
I deeply love you.
My soul loves you
and i need you.
My heart is
your next day
dwelling place.
And right here,
this man and
that man was
born there.
But i will be
waiting for you
with love right here.

Look again beyond
the mountains.
I see you
standing between
the sea and
the sky.
Between the
depths of the
oblivion and
the firmament.
It seems the
sky and
the sea are
the same.
I'm loss for
a moment but
not lost.
The sun shines
through the sky
beautifully as you
shine in beauty
in the world.
What are you
searching for?
You truly definitely
don't know exactly
what it is.
I'm not confused
but just thinking.
After this,
you still look
for another,
you remain
gullibly insatiable.
Are you after luck,
love, and
peace of mind?  
Do not look
for it at
the other end
of the world,
otherwise you will
return disappointed,
bitter and desperate.  
Search on the
other end of
yourself afterwards,
in the depths
of the heart.
Maybe you'll
find it there.

Watch your words
so you  don't
hurt ones you love.
Speak gently and
softly as only
the heart where
God dwells can utter.
As an exalted being,
speak with love,
not the craftiness
of a deluded
cunning mind.
Words of deception
is like cancer,
it spreads.
Do not use
high handed words
to confuse the mind,
speak as simply plainly
as it is.
Because all of
your heavy words
weary the heart
to stupor.
If whatsoever you
want to say
is not better
than silence,
one should keep quiet.
The words that
just left your mouth
to the ones you
claimed to love
reveals the hidden intents
of the heart
where your spirit dwells.
Check and filter
your words
before you let
them go on
an errand of
peace or destruction.

Pyrrha
Don't stare too closely at the sun
You'll get pulled in
And come undone
Some recoil at the scars,
some wish to know how you received them.
