Perfectly Imperfect
marvin m brato Aug 2018
Poetry is an infinite expressions
of human thoughts and emotions
excited by the external environment
synthesized through an internal intent.

Poetry is a gateway of freedom
an elixir inducing release of boredom
compels intuition of instinctive expressions
of various human experiences and impressions.

Poetry is an art of a wordsmith
literal composite of words and wit
language of the soul by the human intellect
subject to criticism as it is perfectly imperfect.

Thoughts to Ponder
marvin m brato Aug 2018
In a blink of light my conscience is awake.
My senses open yet what is there to take?
Into my understanding I seek for something,
A reason for which makes life truly worth living.

Life seems magical exhibits myriad wonders,
No carnal being has measured as he ponders.
In this world of tribulations, is there still hope?
Is life destined to damnation, a fact we cannot cope?

On whose plan was this existence created?
Surely it must of great power that dominated!
A thought of a super Being may come to mind,
Or Someone out there, a God who mastermind!

The bible has attested we are created in His image,
The likeness of Him marked our presence to this age.
Just to think of the vastness of creations I witness to see,
I thought of God as the Master of everything including me!

Memories
marvin m brato Oct 2018
As a young man...
I wonder what will become of me
I dream to be somebody
I query for the ways

What is life's worth...
if there is no joy
nobody to care for
and without love

Then I meet you...
you are so nice pal
so kind, so friendly
and God-fearing too


Only then that I...
saw the innate beauty of colors
and felt the blaze of sunshine
and savored love

I am a man... .
a bit mysterious
yet feels confident
and quite mature

You are a woman...
beautiful lady
so sweet maiden
and smart gal

I love you...
as what my heart dictates
that I want you as much
as I need you by my side

And you loved me too...
as your best buddy
like a dearest friend
and soul mate

So we share the best moments...
of caring for each other
sharing happiness together
and savoring ardent love

Suddenly you decided...
to leave and forget
and stop caring
by ending your love

Why? Was it worth...
your freedom to live
and quest for achievements
for a secured future?

And we parted ways...
with two-broken hearts
and teardrops falling
in dire solitude

But now I am still...
thinking deeply
while longing solemnly
waiting for your return

In my loneliness...
I think of you vividly
my soul wishes for you
my heart is awaiting

Just to realized...
that you are gone now
and we are not meant
for each other

And what left in me...
a scarred heart
wounded by frustration
of your lost love

So I am trying hard..
to exit from the pain
and erase you
by starting anew

But before I finally do...
I still like to think
I still want to analyze
I still wish to remember
that one girl I have loved
had once made me a happiest man


And now it marks...
only as MEMORIES

Frustrations
marvin m brato Oct 2018
Being broke is dire frustration
reliance on self diminishes so low
only the spirit left alive yet weakening
kiss of death becomes the ultimate wish
endurance dwindles, self-esteem dying too
no longer inspired to take the second chance.

Dreams have lost their glitters
restricting ones interest to explore
even the simplest thing which give hope
and joy can not be seen by the blinded heart
mangled by failures that paralyzed the inner soul
settling down-west like a sullen sun to hide the pains.

LUST
marvin m brato May 2018
A mere sight

of your body,

lits me up

like a gas stove.



So Red hot

I can feel fire,

blazing urge

getting crazy.



Such feeling

can't be gentle,

demanding

this lust not love.

Poetic Reality
marvin m brato Oct 2018
Poetry has enthralled me
like a river pool twirling
fresh sentimental thoughts
cascading passion surging.

Poetry has inspired me
like sunrise that awakens
to brighten my soul with zest
my indulgence to inscribe poems.

Poetry brings pleasure to me
encourages instinctive expressions
of innate reactions to human existence
I now meditate in solitude to extract reality.

Love Over Sex
marvin m brato Aug 2018
When love is pure,
*** compels allure.
Such act excites ecstasy,
Couple share it heartily.

But when *** drive wanes,
As aging finally intervenes.
Can love's fire still lit without ***?
And can stand stronger or go nix?

What if your partner is still able?
Seek *** to warm the nights as before?
While you have lost the strength and full function,
To perform well and can't give your lover the satisfaction?

Can love prevail over *** then?
Or would it mark the coming end?
Well , I can personally believe love shall conquer...
The carnal lust of *** if you truly adore your partner!

Eternal Love
marvin m brato Oct 2018
'You are lovely
with your smile so warm,
and your cheeks so soft'
as I see you each morning
when we wake up each day.

'You are lovely
with your smile so warm,
and your cheeks so soft'
as our love binds us strong
with trust and forgiveness.

'You are lovely
with your smile so warm,
and your cheeks so soft'
as we live surfing this life
and till death do us part.

'You are lovely
with your smile so warm,
and your cheeks so soft'
shall always be my praised
now and beyond for eternity.

Mentor Poet
marvin m brato Oct 2018
A poet who is truly respected
may not be the most brilliant cited
nor number one in the recent survey
but someone whose mind best convey.

A poet who is a creative critic
may not be someone who is prolific
nor gives comment somewhat stupor
but the one who inspires as a mentor.

A poet who reads poems and analyses
may not be someone who is the wisest
nor his poetry the most read composition
but becomes an epitome of the association.

Getting Back

I had loved you
It was my first time
I felt heavenly emotion
It was indeed a great feeling
I thought such love could not end.

I had loved you
It was my first time
But such had turned arid
As the time passed overtime
I thought such love would soon end.

I had loved you

But I have realized it now
My love for you could not leave
I thought such love should not end.

Sex Act
marvin m brato Aug 2018
Every young adult exudes excitement
Upon someone possessing a **** charm.
Attraction on physical than emotional,
Arouse the curiosity for intimate bond...
To execute the pleasure of a warm touch.

Lust incites the inner being for carnal ecstasy
Felt by a woman enticed by a man's masculinity,
Likewise of a man seduced by a woman's femininity.
May not be emotionally involve yet physically attached...
That both are quite enthralled they yield to casual ***.

Maybe so many individuals are curious about casual ***,
But only few have actually done it at a certain occasion.
All the consenting adults with high IQ they say indulge it,
While those with strong spiritual faith elude the filthy act...
And only do it to convey *** as a romantic expression of love.

Freedom
marvin m brato Oct 2018
I am locked-in within my soul
filled with emotions concealed
in my heart wanting to disclose
all these intuitions surging within

Oration is never my exhibit
but poetry is my sole release
real freedom I have truly own
as my innate tool of expression

Looking behind bars of solitude
from this caged of self seclusion
I can view with an insightful eyes
the chronicles of human existence

I may not be a wise poet
but I can not help to be prolific
as I have much thoughts to share
to the world for which I shall be free

Love Speaks
marvin m brato Oct 2018
Love speaks...
of thousands words,
enthuse infinite thoughts;
evoking innate sentimental
expressions of myriad colors.

Like rainbow...
love conveys candid hue,
which glitters chromatic rays;
and shades depicting emotions
of variable depths and meanings.

Courting speaks of adoration...
being sweethearts convey romance,
soon engagement promises devotion
and marriage consummates the vow.
all these... hold part as love speaks!

Only His Best
marvin m brato Oct 2018
A man who still lives
Has poetry in his heart
Sentiments adamantly beat
As innate essence of existence

A poet writes from the heart
An instinctive inclination flows
A worse thought may be his best
Though not in accord with the code

The world may become the critic
Judge the poems based on races
And how best the grammar is done
A form universally accepted as norm

A best poem is sole monumental
It is the value of wisdom that counts
Lessons expressed than a popularity
The true barometer of what is called best

A dead poet is best remembered
By his only best read compositions
Yet many are still worth the discovery
Poems may not as best but are great

Morning Bliss
marvin m brato May 2018
The cold night dissolves at daybreak

As the waking radiance slowly sneak

The dawn beckoning quite paradise

That ushers in ecstasy this sunrise



From dreamland my senses awake

With fresh thoughts all mine to take

Reckons the view as I open my sight

Your countenance enliven my might



Seeing you beside me at my bed

Brought me bliss the thing I need

Your angelic splendor I truly adore

T his morning I can’t ask for more

Overflowing like fountain.

Life is wonderful indeed.
Yes I finally found someone
None else but a special one.

Care and true love
A blessing from above.
Being in love so deeply
Attraction so strong really.
Heaven is where we stand,
Under our heart's command
Gentle touches of each hand.

Beautiful world I now dwell
In loving you so well.
Living becomes bright
Lots been going right.
On everything we share
Now I will always dare.
Echo my love freely
Sweet and tenderly.

We pledge to walk the aisle
With much love in our eyes

We pledge to love each other
And share the moments together

We pledge to enjoy our honeymoon
As long as our love shines like the moon

No matter what happens till death do us part

Our pledges are the vows that will hold us still
In all conditions nothing can ever break our will

Death (Loop Poem)
marvin m brato Oct 2018
Loop Poem ( Death)

Procreation is a gift
gift shared in marriage

Marriage is sacred
sacred defines life

Life is quite monumental
monumental as in special

Special thing being alive
alive to take adventure

Adventure is exploration
exploration for survival

Survival declares the fittest
fittest among others is finite

Finite is human life's span
span of living is unpredictable

Unpredictable is our existence
existence that soon shall vanish

Vanish shall become all of us
us as human succumbs to death

Many years passed you're now a man,

Today is your birthday makes your star lit bright;
Onward to your dreams and do more with faith.

Waving a Poetry
marvin m brato Aug 2018
Composing poetry
quite a complex tapestry
its a product of ingenuity
waved into genuine artistry

Don not know to begin
a poem that would explain
these innate sentiments
contain sensitive elements

like an inborn waver
who creates with art
through skillful work
guided by the heart

The beauty in poetry
is not seen by the eyes
but felt by the emotions
that define the human

Writing is like waving
poetic thoughts flowing
are instinctively woven right
which interpolates the human life

waving poetry is sentimental labor
it does require a mental endeavor
enthuses freedom of expression
about the human life's exploration

Moment to Remember

As I see your face
in your slumber
I recall the past
romantic moments


You were young then
pretty and vibrant
adoring and sweet

and we aged gracefully
our children are grown ups
still I am captivated by you


True love lingers
it became me
can not live

Rain

Teardrops falling like rain;
Stimulated by this innate emotional surge
Of the melancholic momentum of sadness,
Triggered by the pain as you said "goodbye! "

Droplets flow from this unhappy eyes;
Induced by this systemic expression
Of the emptiness feeling in this heart,
Contained in solitude as you bid "farewell! "

I cannot stop the rain from falling;
As it quenches this desiccated emotion
Feeling drained and gasping for your love,
If you will...please come back to stop the rain!

Retrospect
marvin m brato Oct 2018
My memory draws back in time
a recalling of those indelible episodes
revered moments as well as the cursed
view in replay by the eyes of my conscience
important events that had made what I am now
noteworthy of review as those were part of me.

Memoirs of childhood make me ponder
of the vulnerability of my being innocent
rules seemed rude and freedom elusive
a youth chained in solitude and paranoia
great was my need for true consolation
as though I cannot held to thrive anymore.

Behold, God had enlightened my soul
reared by His love I have regained light
and found reason to breath the life of love
to sustain better living and share to others
overwhelming blessings and forgiveness.

This ardent adoration

this unsatisfied love for you
nevertheless, true love can't die!

Why Poetry?
marvin m brato Oct 2018
Why there is poetry?
Such is a wise question,
as it has been man's gateway
to the world of innate imaginations...
about what makes the world go-round!

Poetry is everything!
It's the intimate expression,
and ultimate passion of the heart
that enthuse human endearment...
to explore, expound candid sentiments!

Poetry is life itself!
Without it life is empty,
and becomes insignificant
as there shall be no meaning...
to every moment that we spend!

Poetry make poets!
As it excites emotions,
inspires to compose poems
which explicitly lit a rainbow...
to give colors to our existence!

A guy so tame
Real emotions I got
Views I have a lot
Inside my mind
Not blind.

On my cheek a dimple
Reading is my hobby
About poems by somebody
God gave me this talent too
Accomplishing a poem or two.

Being emotional for me is a kick
Real emotions I can dig so quick
At any moment of the day
One poem I write to stay.

Alas, a priceless gift only for you.

Come 24th day in February
Real celebration for a merry
Inevitably it is your natal day.
Since I cannot come to it
Expect my message though bit
Love is all i want to give
Definitely sincere and decisive
Alas, a true gift for you.

Yes, I will wait for a sign from above
Until your heart grants me your love.

Getting Better

As the time goes by
All things aged
The seed is full-grown
Into a tree

The bud of innocence
Comes to maturity
Like the bond share
Turns better each day

We have had confusions
But we were young then
Now is the chance for life
To know each other

Life has come to prime
So let us do
To strengthen the tie
So it won't get lose

We must take the balance
By using the common sense
Least we find the score
And draw the line

To give and take
Is the secret ingredient
To cook the pie
To it's best

Married or not
For as long as together
Couple in love is better
Than bitter love in couple

Stop Loving Me...
marvin m brato Jul 2018
You said you love me,
But how on earth can it be?
When you are not free,
As you are married, you see!

Maybe you are blinded by your feeling,
When you confessed that to me you are falling.
Have you thought about what you just said?
Did you not believe my love can not be paid?

I may look pretty to your eyes,
But please do not tell me lies!
About you truly in love with me,
For I know such can never be.

I know that your only desire is lust,
Most men feel such urge is a must.
When there appears a chance to say,
To a gal like me mistaken I want to play.

Sorry my dear for I can not afford,
To indulge In such act without accord.
I can not dare to say yes to your desire,
For me its kind of verboten that causes fire.

So for now let us just be friends,
And not go what others call trends.
Indulging in having extra-marital affair,
For in God's eyes its sin and never fair.

I tell you again my persistent suitor,
Please stop now and do not detour.
Love only your wife who loves you back,
And do not persist on me for its not tack.

Practical Training
marvin m brato Oct 2018
Practice excites perfection,
So training is best foundation.
Lucky I was granted to enhance,
To master my professional stance.

To Manila I flew the next day,
It was a great flight I must say.
Freedom being far from my home,
I communicate through a cell-phone.

City life then was new and queer,
I was obsessed with girls and beer.
Nearby building was a clubhouse,
Dancing was a gal in skimpy blouse.

Her stare at me was seemed sumptuous,
She showed me her body so voluptuous.
Then signaled me to go around backstage,
And indulged in a ****** acrobatic gauge.

She danced on top of me like a swan,
Flipping her legs to absorbed the fun.
As I hold on to my throbbing manhood,
I explored the ecstasy as much as I could.

Such practice was a simulated training,
To please a woman who seemed faking.
Foreplay is the key to sustain the pleasure,
And to attain the climactic blaze for sure.

you just walked pass me
and paying no heed
deliberately ignoring

Sleepless nights I got
How I think of you a lot
A time without you beside
Life's energies in me subside

My desire is to keep you near
And life becomes a melody to sing
Real love for you is a diamond ring.

Care that you are constantly giving
Often overwhelming and endearing
Rare kind is your baring sweetness
Titillating hugs and with warm caress
Even your laughter ignite my fantasy
Zealously activates me to ecstasy.

Even in my dreams I see her feature
Light flashes as she smiles.

Joy electrifies my inner self
on that smile she reveals herself
how beautiful she is to behold
none else on earth i wish to hold.

Mysterious she may be for now
A time will soon come somehow
Real love will lead the way
Girl in my dreams will soon stay
And I will be so happy to greet
That beauteous lady i will meet
End of my trip.

Mistaken
marvin m brato Oct 2018
I thought the world is big
That it has boundless space
For me to live and play

I thought the landscape is free
Where adventures abound
For me to live and play

I thought life here is secure
And opportunities are great
For me to live and play

Yet, the reality entails:

The world is smaller
That people congest
Where I struggle to survive

The land is much to pay
Citizens becoming foreign
Where I struggle to survive

And life itself in danger
Threaten to succumb to death
Where I live and destine to die

Self Expressions
marvin m brato Oct 2018
As life is full of adventures,
People take it sort of ventures.
Whatever endeavor one has gotten,
It is a choice though to some is verboten.

Nobody truly influences what we aspire,
Only God surely invades our innate desire.
Yes man is gifted with inborn intelligence,
Best if he utilizes it with able diligence.

All five senses except one man detests,
Is it his religious orientation that protests.
Sexuality does excites different social reactions,
But the higher IQ one has the better interpretations.

It is a taboo for most to discuss ***,
Why is it so, are you doing it to vex?
Is it not innate part of being normal persons,
How come we relay much on irate reasons?

Maybe those frigid have overlooked,
Even animals do it not just for hooked.
Have to resolve all our life's contentions,
Explore the five senses for self expressions!

lingering in time I'll be wishing
till the end of time I'll be waiting

Love Making

It all starts in the eyes
that see the alluring beauty
which lit the innate sensuality
of the ecstatic urge of humane senses
that blazes the desire for sensuous fantasy
enticing a close encounter of physical touch.

Lust is the ****** element of ***
undeniably a tempestuous interaction
of lovers who engage in the exploration
of the human inter-physical and emotional
expressions of the ultimate essence of sexuality
for without making love, its essence is incomplete.

Madness

Death gives serenity,
In life... most have only severity.
Sharing is a gesture of generosity,
How can one gives if he has nothing?
Only the wise can do things right,
No fool however admits he is wrong!
Every problem is said to always has solution,
Say, what if finding the solution is the problem?
'Tell it to the marines! ' as the saying goes,
Yell it loud, they may not hear you cry!

Marred by Infidelity
marvin m brato Oct 2018
What God has put together
Let no man put asunder

Marriage is a holy matrimony
Sacred vow dream by so many

Man and woman become one
Where single blessedness is gone

In marriage one may goes astray
While the other kneels down to pray

Somehow a hollow is created
Where another soul is well fitted

And so the love once so endeared
Has excites a curse becoming dread

While savoring other love in lust
The original love accumulates rust

A sacrament made with love in solemnity
Now has became marred with sinful infidelity

What Counts the Most...
marvin m brato Oct 2018
Whether best or not

A poet is now on top

Is not worth the place

If its purpose is for race



Whether best or not

My poem is posted hot

Is not the type of accolade

I aspire to own which will fade



Whether best or not

I get most commented slot

For me what matter is the fact

My sanity and sentiments are tact



As having an innate instinctive urge

To write intuitive thoughts that surge

From the core of my candid innermost

A fulfillment that I think counts the most
