If I said I just needed to hear those words
You'd say I'm a stereotypical writer
Or a totally uncreative plagiarist

In this moment I'm not a poet
Just a broken person starving for acceptance

Rejected, abandoned, worthless
I'm sick of my definition

My heart is longing for your approval
Broken pieces would be repaired
If you would just care

Can't you notice something positive?
I want to be worthy

Am I so revolting
you can't even set your eyes upon me?

I crave a basic sentence
With the same intensity
a drowning man craves air

Fill my lungs with life
Let me breathe you in

Please just say
I love you

Like a wave toast in the
Ocean, my love for you
Will soon ebb away.

remembering something
you learn an age ago
do you just
     have to close your eyes
and wait
        wait for your fingers
              to hit the right keys
in perfect synchrony
   and let the music flow
                    do you just wait
and the chords animate
            is this how love works?
       the long forgotten keys
are hidden in depths
                                  just waiting
for you to close your eyes
                  and let it fly

Even the stars
Seem dimmer tonight
Blowing cold air into
My bones
Weighing me down
With the weight
Of a million galaxies

Even the stars can't save me tonight

yellow roses

sudden-bouquet
delight finds
reduction in
citric-colour


goal-post abrupt
a million birds in a jaundiced-sky
trees bold-growing up to the edge of the cliff
a flattened mosquito on a screen
folder atop the lemon-ladder
wings all neatly spread and legs flayed



yellow roses.. in the abbey
given away to orphans
with full-hearts*


forever-journey in honeyed-posey


S T – 01 Oct 2013
what means it, really - yellow roses..




sublime-entry: wot-a-day

1.
worries of pensions-and-pills for all
but, nary-a-care t’worth
when t’hour falls
only this body will fall
once

2.
and for now
oh, wot-a-day, partake of oenomel
distinct-streaming on the morrow
wot-a-be-you-tiful day :)
Dreams are not yours to keep-        .                             memories go who knows where
It takes a 100 tears you weep
Know my heart will always care...

----

When you find yourself alone
Heaven beckons ur heart home
Remind me why you had to go
When the answers I don't know

Remember:
          Dreams are not yours to keep-        .                             memories go who knows where
It takes a 100 tears you weep
Know my heart will always care...

Even as you fall asleep
The dreams live on inside me deep
Every memory I will keep
Silent tears I always weep

When time has turned my heart to stone
A part of me-a part you own
And now that I am here alone
How could I again be whole

Remember:
Dreams are not yours to keep-
Memories go who knows where
Life"s answers come when life"s complete
Know in my heart I"ll always care...

So just before the last goodbye
Only God will see me cry
May Angels walk beside ur side
Heaven welcomes- you abide

And here I stand on my own

Remember:
        Dreams are not yours to keep-        .                             memories go who knows where
It takes a 100 tears you weep
Know my heart will always care...
Yes
Dreams are not yours to keep-
Memories go who knows where
Life"s answers come when life"s complete

Forever you live in my heart

Dreams are all that I now keep
Never we will be apart
Memories go who knows where
Until,
Yes,
Someday i meet you there....
"Saying goodbye-   see you again in Heaven...."
(Death leaves the one who has to carry on life with this Hope)
the moon hung
as a silver ball
in the sky
blending in harmony
each string playing perfect pitch
a melody divine
