I see him across the room. I'm caught in his gaze. All I can do is just look at him. We hear each other's heart beats. No one else is in the room but us. The world around us mean nothing. I walk to him.. He walks to me. He takes my hand in his. The setting changes to a warm windy beach like in those cheesy chickflicks. My heart starts to fill with joy and warmth.. His love makes me feel human..
To be locked in a room.
Just me and just you.
To make the whole world bloom,
only for us two.

Drinking words from your voice,
being satiated by your sight.
A glorious rejoice,
that could last the whole short night.

And then, maybe, along the hours
my skin could feast with yours.
If we where in the same room.
You reflect in befuddled wonder
is it the time to be happy or morose
when is reached that page of calendar
where the year comes to a close.

There isn't much you could do about it
there isn't much you could hold
you tried though your every bit
not all pages were written in gold.

It's enough if you remained fit and agile
it's enough if you got a few smiles
it's enough if you could travel all the miles
you stumbled but walked all the while.

It's enough if you hid some of your pain
your bleeding you kept to yourself
it's enough if once without thinking of gain
you offered a stranger your help.

Little you could do to change the events' course
but you tried and it matters no less
it's enough if you've used your little resource
to make this world a better place.
our little good deeds would be enough to save this world from sinking.

A Happy New Year to all fellow poets on hp.

There's something I want to write to you. But the problem is I do not write as beautiful as you.
There's something I want to write. Something that is bursting with emotions but I can't.
I can't because words are mere words. Not enough, never enough! But I am writing this to you.
I love you. I love your heart. I love every inch of you. And even though you don't see this but I love you.
I felt it, I feel it.
this pain, this pain
and this rain of torture.
But I am forever thankful for your soul.
A soul that will live forever
because you know,
LEGENDS NEVER DIE.
For Andy.
I never really got to know him. We never talked. But I know something about his heart. A heart full of love and words.
And it was a privilege knowing.
Farewell, friend. <3
