I had a dream on a sleepless night
Wandering on the storm of luminary spheres,
I counted them all as they wink.
I reached for the bedazzling sea,
To the lustrous and splendid heaven,
But then I was bleary.

I went back in my disconsolate bed.
I glanced finally to the lucid ocean,
Then I perceived the quotidian,
A discernibly sheeny spot.
I felt it with the slightest touch.
Then I was back to my senses.

I sighed deeply and questioned,
Was that a dream on a sleepless night?

I Should Have Told You
LJDC Apr 2015
I should have told you but I didn't do.
I kept my senses closed and unseen,
Though I see with clearest glasses,
But I just said ambiguous thoughts.
The thoughts I treasured in these four corners.
The choice of listening than talking,
The choice that taught me a lot.
All the disguise and secrets of life,
All from others' perspective.
Though numerous I learned,
Owns thoughts were forbidden.
Nothing for the world to know,
Nothing for one to realize.

I should have told you but I didn't do
From the stentorian shouts of my ego,
To the clamorous whispers of my heart.
The tectonic regret of my whole being.

I hollered silence as I said to my self,
*I should have told you but I didn't do.

— The End —
