Am Too perverted
to be converted
And
too averted
to be reverted

I'm too deserted
to be patted
but ain't gutted
albeit unwanted

I get lost in your kiss
                   Yet feel at home on your **lips

I look for you
In passing faces
A stranger's glance
In haunted places

I feel you among
Nature's grandest setting
It is you that I remember
Even when I'm forgetting

I see you wherever I go
In everyone I meet
Your words echo in conversations
That pass me on the street

Your soft, easy way
That safe familiar tone
That always takes me back
To a time long gone

Rueful Request

We all look up to the same sun.
To the same moon we confide.
We all look at them the same...
Hoping for the light of day...
Wishing for peace at night.

Unfortunately...
It seems that they are not just.
For their light is selective.
It is not available to those
heavily shrouded in the dark,
drenched in tears.
It seemingly favour those
who'd shamelessly croon for their boon.
Miscreants who shirk
their responsibilities and fears.

I beg you...
Guardian of day and sentinel in twilight.
May your arms be kind and fastidious.
May your reach be deliberate,
purposeful and extensive.
Find those who cry but without voice.
Cradle those who've made decisions
without the luxury of choice.
Shed some love so they could see
past their laboured breaths in mud.
Raise them to their feet
so that they might
have a fighting chance to live.

Keep speaking up without fear
Someday someone'll beyond hear
Keep championing for change

May not always be poetry
*But Poetry's always reality
Just a reaction thought to a trending poem...
I don't believe in first draft
and second in poetry...
to me that first thought I pen is the poem...
what you afford to note...
Just my opinion

Can't change her
So I'm turning me into the lad
who can deal with the ripples
she brings...

I'm adopting to the echoes
along her wave length...
For she's my weakness and strength
Each time I want to fly
she gives me wings
I soar in her arms, she's my sky
I'm entangled in her charms
She's my world and beyond
I can't even tell why!!

I peer at the world
And all I see is
possible impossibilities
fictional realities
counterfeit originality
impotent functionality
locomotive staticity,
and rigid elasticity
beside Beastie humanity...*

I look at the world
and all there's
are peaceful wars
Less Mores
widely locked doors
criminal laws
a stinking rose
and fragrant "choos"
I look at the world
and sadly I see all those...
I even see stepped on toes
on sand-less shores...

Catastrophe runs in my mind,
Desperate on my fragile soul,
Dare not I look behind,
Unto my long lost role.
Now, banging on the sheer white wall,
Face with the truth of my denial,
Looking through the empty halls,
Smiling, to forgotten dials.
