after we expel
all the words

silence settles nothing

leftover feelings
are piranhas

each one too small
to matter

but together they
devour all that matters

last night

there was not
enough blankets

you didn’t take them
I just felt colder

than usual

Must respect anyone woman that's a mother.
The truth stands in that a mom's job is never done.
Hard raising one.
But think of those mothers with more.

Getting pulled from every corner for mother's time.
From the oldest to the youngest.
And then there might be her spouse or man.
Also seeking her.

Being a mom takes patience and time.
Even when she snaps?
Or better term goes off on the crew.
After a moment or two, they still pulling at you.

So all children as you age.
Think of the things mom had to do.
As they raised you.

Nurture and protect you.
And this they truly do.
Guide you accordingly to some success and failures too.

Cause as kids we go into that being of a troubled youth.

Being, a mom deserves all types of rewards.
But all kids living must say moms kept GOD before you.

We blame you.
Some shame you.
I proclaim you.

Some trust you.
Some refuse too.
I surely do place my trust in you.

Some denied you.
Some tried you.
I constantly call on you.

Cause Jesus you yet to fail me.

So love left you.
Desert you and you lost your senses.
Love truly didn't end cause they left you.

It exposed you to the truth.
That the person you loved simply didn't respect you.
Love is magical.
It has tricks and experiences.

And slowly will come back to you.

Love goes through the seasons will the best.
Even true love goes through the test.

Sometimes, we fail.
Sometimes, we pass.
But forever love will returns eventually to you.

Remember, love goes through seasons.
Some stay.
Some fade away.

Worry not about others' comments.
This love between us was meant.
We have put so much feeling into it

And I'm gonna love you.
Until there is no tomorrow.
We have built up so much happiness.
And faced so much sorrow.

But through all, we have been through.
I am gonna love you until there is no tomorrow.

Yesterday is simply a dream.
But we love through it like just another day.
And in my, my heart, my heart.

I'm gonna love you until there is no tomorrow.

We have build up a foundation.
A good example to share with other nations.

And I'm gonna love you.
Until there is no tomorrow.

CHANGE OF ADDRESS

You didn’t die
you just changed shape

became invisible
to the naked eye

became
this grief

it’s sharpness
more real

then your presence was

before you were separate to me
entire to yourself

now you are
a part of me

you are inside my self

I call you
by your new name

‘Grief…Grief! ‘

although I still call you
‘Love.’

SANCTUARY

this one perfect moment
time rearing up like a wave
that never ever breaks

the train's scream
the dog's bark
chiselled into the silence

dancing to
the bandstand's music
a flock of flags

birds
writing themselves...unwriting themselves
across a page of sky

this moment
flees from time
claims sanctuary in my mind
