Picnic With A Ghost
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
Woke on a white blanket today.
Looking at the blue sky above me.

Turning I see;

A strange looking farmhouse at the bottom of a hill,
A fence of split logs,
Mountains were rising up, like giants through a misty morning.

Two glasses of red grapes sitting on the blanket,

No one else around...

Plates made of paper filled with cherry pie,

No one else around...

Suddenly, from behind I hear!
A quiet voice was singing words I could not understand.

I turn to look,

No one else is there...

My Angel
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
My beautiful Angel, what would you like to say to me today?

Wake up sleepy head,
I have prepared a wonderful day for you ahead.

Take a deep breath,

Don't touch that phone,
Eat breakfast instead.

Look out your window,
The sun has a beautiful yellow glow.

Do something new,
There is no better day than today.

Smile at everyone this day. A smile is a free gift to give.  

Sing, dance, read, and write.

You Look great!

Give and forgive,

Call an old friend,

Be grateful for a new day...

Traveling down, down, down...
A winding staircase.

Two doors to open.
Which one?

First door is locked,
Second is open.

Walk through the open door. I see;
A bright and beautiful golden palace,
Many people dressed in colorful clothes,
There is a pretty queen on her throne.

Grabbed by each arm,
I'm brought to stand in front of her.

She looks so familiar to me.

She stands bowing to me and
Takes hold of my hand,
Saying,  “Welcome home my king. I have missed so much my love.”

Saranghaeyo. I love you...

Most cherished, Princess Deokhye,

I need to confess something to you. Ever since I met you in my dreams, I can only think of your radiant, black eyes. You filled my heart with unexpected joy and my head with amazing dreams of us together. My love can only grow more and more each day.
I dream of us laughing and from time to time I would gently stroke your black hair while you keep smiling. In moments like these my life would simply be complete.
When I’m alone in the quiet, it always feels like I can hear your voice, whispering to me.  Just like the blessed music of a Haegeum. I wanted to tell you this from a long time ago, you are as essential to me as is my warm coat on a winter's day.
My Beloved My Princess, please be sure I mean everything this love letter carries to you with all my heart. Once I saw your lovely eyes I knew there won’t be anything more precious to me in this whole world. I want to take you away from the past, away from any upset or misfortune, and we shall go together to the future Korea, where miracles happen every day.
You are the best my beloved princess.. You are my sunny day in spring.   I'd sacrifice everything in the world to know that you will be right here beside me for the rest of our lives.
My heart skips a beat at the thought that soon I will bring you a white rose of Sharon to show you once more how dedicated I am to you, for all eternity.

May love guard you,

Poet Ron

Princess Deokhye of Korea (25 May 1912 – 21 April 1989) was the last princess of Korea.
She was born on 25 May 1912 at Changdeok Palace in Seoul. She was the youngest daughter of Emperor Gwangmu and his concubine, Lady Bongnyeong.[1] In 1917, her name was formally entered into the Imperial Family's registry. Her father, Emperor Gwangmu, loved her greatly, and established the Deoksu Palace Kindergarten for her in Jeukjodang, Hamnyeong hall. Girls her age from noble families attended the kindergarten. In 1919, she was secretly engaged to Kim Jang-han, a nephew of Kim Hwangjin (a court chamberlain).

Dreamy Day
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
A dream has come true today.

Dressed in white, with a blue scarf,
Everything seems just cool as can be,
Looking so sweet to see.

An Angel sits on a tall chair, In front of a microphone.

Glass walls have ears, and there are no hands on the clock.

Happy as can be.
The Angel sings with a;
soulful, beautiful, sweet, pure, powerful, strong, pure, upbeat, lush, charismatic, different,  appealing...
Voice.

To children.
From out of the book of Worship
She sings of love, hope and friendship,

On this dreamy day.

White skies over Galleria Mall Arad Romania again,

Among the young Stars
laughing near silence
where children await

Now blue stars fade
into happy beginnings
then love for children once more.

Letter To My Angel
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
Thinking of my Guardian Angel Today,

I write these words today, for a very special you,
Thinking of you night and day, I always pray,
Your bright soul brings sunshine every day.

When I first met you so long ago.
In that heavenly place.
This day was the first time we said 'Hello.'
I found an unbelievable beautiful soul.

How beautiful you are in an Angel's dress.

When your soft and kind hand warmed my cold face,
You said to me, “I am sorry we can not be together in this place.
Our Father has a mission for you in another place.
I will always watch over you when you travel to that earthly place.
Let us never say farewell and goodbye.”

On this beautiful calm clear day.  Not a rain cloud in the sky,
Looking up at Heaven thinking of an Angel in a white dress.
A warm tear drop of rain falls upon my face.

I knew you were guarding me in this place.

Let us never say farewell and goodbye...

Priceless Fingers
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
Fingers so beautiful and precious.
They are priceless!

Worth more than diamonds and gold.
Fingers float above a river of piano keys,
Fingers play music that sounds sweeter than bird's song.

Fingers so beautiful and precious.
They are priceless!

God sends His glory of song to these fingers.
Fingers play with much love and devotion for God,
Fingers battle summer's Cicada hum and afternoon fatigue.

Fingers so beautiful and precious.
They are priceless!

Worth more than diamonds and gold.
Fingers of mystery; which bring light, hope and peace to all.
Fingers accept the challenge of writing new song.

Fingers so beautiful and precious.
They are priceless!

August 14 Green Day In Korea
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
A dream is a sunny Korean Green Day.
Enduring loves, like a firm hand.
Singles like soju.
Where is the intense girl?
Crying tears quietly alone!

Drowning sorrows
With little green bottles,
Never love a tear.
Kiss seldom like a cold holiday.
The small girl nowhere views the drunk in the mirror.

Couples walk tender romantic, holding hands.
Adoring green clothes,
Trees rise.
Nature kisses like a boundless delicious boy.
Trees are eagerly awaiting a firm stunning, pure love!

The eager mountain patiently desires the girl and boy.
Kiss calmly like an enduring, unwavering blissful wind.
Couples fall roughly like a hot misty Korean day.
Ooh, love!

Eight Gates (Regional Korea)
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
Memories of my past continue to haunt me,
In my dreams every night.

Our spirits swore their faith for all ages.

Open gates let into our lives;

Loyalty,
Goodwill,
To Rule Solemnly,
Exalted Ceremonies,

Showing the Correct thing,
Wisdom.
Bright Light and,
Justice for all.

We only need to find the courage to
Walk through just one,
To make our dreams
Come true.

"The Eight Gates are eight historical gates that were located in the Fortress Wall of Seoul, South Korea, which surrounded the city in the Joseon Dynasty. Six of these gates exist today (2014) . All eight gates were originally built between 1396 and 1398."

Rising Star
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
Shining star, so far away;
Her starlight travels across,
Distant time and space.

Her warmth travels so far to reach me.

So many years,
She was rising, but I could not see.

Her glimmering starlight reaches me at last.

Now that I can see her, she lights up my sky,

I pray she rises every day and night.
I pray she never vanishes from life.

Angels of heaven sing and dance in this place!

Here, beautiful and bright sister sun herself,
Seen between roses and cherry blossoms,
Has a brother moon.

Sister and brother shine day and night.

Rivers, streams, Flow through hills and mountains,
What a calming place.

Blue eyed angels run through fields Of beautiful aster and daisies.
Green grass sweet apple trees.

Magpies fly so high in a bright blue sky, Like guardian Angels.

Here is a dream, a fairy-tail, maybe a fantasy.
Can this be real?

I'm in a happy place.

I chose the Sun to be female and the moon to be male because of the Korean myth about how the Sun and Moon were created. At the end of the story. Sister moon was afraid of the dark. So the brave and kind brother Sun switched places with his sister.

Old Romantics
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
See invisible things,
No one else sees.

Lives meet at the most-important times,
By no accident.
Our spirits met in the past and,
God gave us a second chance.

Boyfriend is waiting to catch her in his arms;
Hug her from behind,
Give her a rose every morning,
Give her a surprise,
Write her little notes,
Listen to her words,

Give her a kiss on the forehead,

Tell her she is 'beautiful.',
Inside and out,

Say, “I love you.”,
Not only with words but deeds...

Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
On the morning of a warm June day,
Quite by accident.

Feelings of fascination and intrigue
came over me.

I looked and did see,
beautiful pink roses in front of me.

The more I looked, the more I learned
The more I wanted to know.

I looked and did see a white tiger,
Walking past me.

The more I looked, the more I learned
The more I wanted to know.
Because the more I knew, the more I liked this
place where tigers roam among roses.

I looked and did see my future,
In this fascinating place.

The national flower of Korea is the mugunghwa (무궁화) , rose of Sharon.

"Tiger has been strongly associated with Korean people and Korean culture

A tiger that has overcome trials and tribulations and understands the world is known to turn white, becoming a white tiger. Although it is a sacred creature that doesn't harm people, it becomes angry when the ruler of the country conducts evil and inhumane deeds. Therefore, it has been told that powerful people become humble and rich people become generous when a white tiger appears."

Her Voice

I felt I was in a magical
place when I heard her voice?

I was so absorbed in her song,
It made a connection between us.

All talking and laughter had ceased,
There was no one else but her and me.

I found myself looking at her;
The more I looked,
The more I listened.

No matter how hard I tried,
I could not turn away,

Because, I did not want to miss a thing.

Dreams Are Everything
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
Night night
Angel in a silk robe,
Rest on your bed where moonlight falls.

Night night
I will guard you this night,
Send all your worries to me.

Night night
Sleep and dream of wondrous things;
Dream of mountains, gardens,
Lying on a warm seaside beach.
Sleep and dream of dancing with the one you love,
In your bare feet under a moonlit palm tree,

Your dreams are everything to me.

Night night
Your rising will bring a new day,
When you will get dressed in the happiest of dreams...

True Love
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
Love that can fill us up make us whole and give us happiness.
Does not mean saying, "I love you." Do
Not mistake the feelings, of imitation love for true love.

Always remember. True love does not
Mean having money, anger, ***, alcohol, violence, power, approval from others.
Saying, "I love you." Does not always mean love is true.

I want the love in my heart to be always true.
Love true with
You means. Giving to you all of my heart and soul unconditionally.

Seaside

Can you imagine,
watching a beautiful seaside sunset?
The sky looks on fire.
Burning reds, bright oranges hot as the yellow sun and yet the outer edges of the blazing sky have begun to cool and turn dark blue and gray as night falls.

Almost everyone has gone,
I hear the waves, smell the scent of the salt water and feel the caress of the cool breeze upon my face.
The warm sand hugs my feet and warms my soul.  
Day's end becomes tranquil. It's sad. It's quiet. It's happy. It's peaceful.

As night falls I see two friends walking along waters edge holding hands;
Wondering, what to do next?

Because she is my Angel;

I know we will never be able to be in each others arms,
I know we will never kiss.

But I am so very joyful, she came into my life and
Guards my heart and soul day and night.

Yes, I love my Angel.

Missed You Today
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
It has been so long, so very long...
Since I've seen you,
Some 40 years have past.

Since that first incredible hour in which we met.

I still think of you;
Those big brown eyes,
Your childish smile,
Sweet wonder with a warm heart.

Your every word inspires me,
When you come near to me.
Little do you know how soothed you made my heart.
Such beauty and kindness filled my eyes with fires of desire.

As I grow older,
and time moves swiftly.
I still wonder why our Father,
decided He needed another Angel
on that tragic day,
when, He took you away from me?

I missed you today.

Picture this;

The first light of day is glowing,
Find yourself still dreaming,

Watch the sun as it grows,
She's still sleeping,

What is this miracle I have discovered?

The sun has not yet touched her face,

Yet!

She is glowing brighter than the brightest star,

She warms my cold life,

She illuminates my days and nights,

She brings light...

Rainy Night
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
The night was cold and rainy.

I have noticed you, standing
far away from me in a shower rain.

Being guarded by a leaking umbrella,
It was hiding your face from me,
Your soaking wet hair was flowing down your back.

I was wondering when you would look at me.

As I walk towards you,
You walk further away from me,
As if I was standing still.

It seems I will never reach you.

I hate cold, rainy nights and leaking umbrellas...

Taking pictures of the high mountain.
I see a spectacular site;

She's floating with the clouds,
Sunny, white, fleecy clouds.

Wearing a pink kimono with wings covered in Sakura flowers,
Doves flying around her head,

Snow capped mountain towering in the background
Peeking through Sakura trees.

Is she playing with me?
She's playing hide and seek in the mist.

When, I look at her playing,
She fills me with joy and makes me feel like a child,
She makes me smile.

Alas, she hides among the clouds once again.
I look and look but do not see.  I am concerned.
I miss our hide and seek game.
Where did you go?  
We haven't finished our game.

Suddenly! I feel safe and warm all over me, Like a warm blanket covering me on a cold day, A tickle on my cheek.

And

Then, hearing a calming voice whispering in my ear saying, “Love, take my hand come with me. Let's go dancing high amongst the clouds this day.”

“You will never be alone again...”

I will lock them away and keep you safe.

My hand shakes while I write these words.

Everything is disappearing from my mind,
Memories fade and turn gray;

Memories of faces are disappearing.

Memories have been lost never to return.

My past is lost and soon my future will be too.

Seaside Angel
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
On a sunny, warm day,
Under a blue sky, with,
White puffy clouds on the horizon,
On a seaside beach,

Sitting alone, thinking of what life will bring.

I glimpsed an Angel,
Dressed in white.

Her wings spread wide, like she just arrived.

So mystifying she is,
Walking through the ocean mist.

She appears in front of me,
She lifts me up,
How can I feel trust for someone I do not know?
She says, “Hello my friend.  Do you remember me from long ago? Please walk with me.”

"Tell me how has your life been?"
"Tell me of your happy times,"
"Tell me your sad times,"
"Tell me of your lonely times,"

We walked and talked for hours.
Then she said, “Don't ever feel lonely. I will always be here to lift you up. Just remember me.”

I turn to give her a hug and say thank you.
Where did you go?
She has vanished into thin air,
Have I been talking to myself?

A strong ocean breeze pushes my head down,
Then, I see two sets of footsteps in the sand.

Yes, I remember you from so long ago my Angel...

I wake to the blue morning sky,
I see Angel wings in flight,

With a grace she gently wanders,
As if searching for something or someone,

She cries out!
Where are you my love?

I'm here my Angel.
Why can't you see me?

Please don't fly away my Angel.
I need you so very much.

My Angel, you take away my pain and give me joy,

I'm here my Angel.
Why can't you see me?

She turns and looks at me.
And says, “I'm here my Angel. Come fly away with me.”

There will come a time,
When, days will grow old, like dying candles.
When, giant machines will die, with their last whine and grown.
When, cold rain will fall to wash away the dust from the past.

Where have all the people gone?

There will come a time,
When, forests and trees. Have overrun the rubble of ancient cities,
When, ghosts of the past will ask, “What have we done?”

Where have all the people gone?

There will come a time,
When, no one will hear the sound of wind blowing,
When, no one will see the sunrise again.

Where have all the people gone?

There will come a time,
When, a gigantic sailing ship, arrives from beyond the stars,
When, people will ask, “Is this our new home at last?”

Cold Winter's Night
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
Can you Imagine laying on the floor,
with me In front of a bright,
warm fireplace, covered in a thick fleece blanket?

With no space between us;

Holding cups of hot cocoa,
Warming each others hearts,
Laughing and telling stories of the past,
Promising to keep secrets between us,

Imagining what gifts the future will bring,
Wondering what we will do next?

Can you ever remember times,
When you felt better than this?

She's a powerful and strong princess,
With magical super powers.

She thinks of time's past,
She thinks of times yet to come.

She loves to travel through Europe,
But her dreams are of Japan,
And singing under Sakura trees in the springtime of Japan.

I notice the way she thinks about Japan always with a smile,

She likes to use words like 'Sakura flowers' and 'Yukata Kimono from Japan.'

She likes to hang out with Monica, Dad and Grandma,
But when left alone,
Her mind turns straight to Sakura flowers in
The springtime of Japan.

She hates mosquitos and cold,
But she just thinks back to springtime in Japan,
And she's happy once again...

She is mysterious, as strange as a daytime dream,
So remarkable, I see a
Princess dressed in a kimono covered with cherry blossom leaves,
Floating down river, under a canopy
Of pink and white Sakura trees.

She is so extraordinary, as unique as a double rainbow at sunrise,
So dreamy, as dreamy as a seaside sunset,
Her unconditional love scatters,
Like cherry blossoms in a fresh breeze,
Seen in rippling waves of sunshine.

So fantastical, as fantastic as a pink rose blooming in the desert,
So magical, as magical as our dreams coming true,
Princess Sakura singing, like an Angel,
She spreads her wings and flies away,
Like vanishing Sakura, leaves at the end of spring.

Princess Sakura, you will live forever in my dreams...

A day!
The world will change,

It's a glorious Morning,

With a voice so bright and cheerful, like a sunny morning after a stormy night,

Singing to innocent children,
You are the best children in the world.

She sings to help others in need,

She sings of noble deeds;
Changing the lives of children with her music,
One of the noblest quests anyone can achieve,
She has Angel wings,
By Saving and changing the lives of children,
She changes the future and the world.

She sings of admirable actions;
To build a child’s spirit,
To take away a child's tears,
To take away a child's fears,
To teach a child to care for others,
She teaches children to sing.

She admires children,

She sings of selflessness;
She sings without thought of profit or reward,
She feels the suffering of lonely and sick children,
She wants no flattery from the world,
She wants to see children achieve their dreams,
She wants to do the right thing and only to help others in need.
Selflessness is its own reward.

She sings of compassion;
She listens to children speak of their dreams,
She feels concern for a child's feelings,
She encourages children to follow their dreams,
To never give up hope.
She teaches children to sing to others, to do good things,
She helps children anytime anyplace.

The untold sacrifices she has made in her life,
That changed the world with her music,
On this beautiful day.

Words inspired by the Romanian singer Evelyne Cojocar.

White Dress
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
In my dreams,
I see a girl in a white dress.

In the sunshine of the day I don't see her,
But I know she's here.

I feel her standing by my side,
Day and night.

I don't know her name, but
I never feel alone.

In my dreams,
I see a girl in a white dress.

She looks at me with a bright smile,
I do not understand her words when she speaks.

In my dreams I see a girl with Angel wings.

She takes my hand,

Now I understand,
God sent an Angel down,
From Heaven to protect me with her Angel wings.

My Soul Is Finally Free
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
A promise not kept.
Why did I let you fall?

Miss you too,
But let me go!

I am so sorry my Love, so sorry as not saying goodbye.
You have waited so long for me,

If I knew, you loved me so,
I would have given your hand away,
Instead of holding on so tightly in the end!
To another who needed your strength.

Why I was so selfish? I did do not understand.

Why did I let you fall my friend?

I wish I lifted you back up to stand.

Now that you are coming to the end of the road of life,
Stop crying your tears for me,

We will soon be two souls let free!

Spend your last days,
enjoying life.

Stop crying for me,
There Is no true Love without jealousy.

Find someone to Love,
To set your soul free...

Tell Me Why
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
Why do I still remember you?

It's been some forty years since we said goodbye
On that stormy August night!
Why do I still dream of you every day and night?
Please Tell me, tell me why I still see your face around, around every corner?

It's been some forty years since we said goodbye
On that stormy August night!

Please tell, tell me why I see your face in a the long gone Korean
Empress Myeongseong?
Who I never knew existed until this time.

Tell me, please tell me why I see your face in a Romanian Angel?
A Romanian Angel who saved my soul and life.
She would have been our Granddaughter in another life.

Please tell me, tell me why do I still remember you?

It has been so very long since I held you in my arms.
It has been so long.
Since I told you, I loved you,
Since I asked you to be my wife.

Please tell me why?
Our Farther took you home.
Why did He take you away from me?

Please tell me why?
It's been some forty years since we said goodbye,
On that stormy August night!

A pink kimono
yukata
Adorned with velvet flowers

Standing there in the Springtime mist of Japan,
Guarded by Sakura trees.
Skies are blue,
Singing a beautiful song,

Pink lips like adorable flowers on a spring day,
A most beautiful, kind and loving princess to ever
walk Japan.

Your beautiful face,
Your kindest soul,
Your adorable lips,
You smiled at me.

You have the prettiest voice,
that calms my soul.

You're the most beautiful and loving princess,
ever to walk Japan...

Super Powers
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
I was asked, “Have I ever met someone with super powers?”

Yes. I have.

She has super powers;

She helps people whenever she can,
Without expecting anything in return,
She never says, "No." when someone asks for help,
Even at to the risk of her life and health,

She can make you smile with a single word,
She brings the sunshine on stormy days,
She sings songs with many languages,
To make the world a happier place,
She brings a party wherever she goes,

She is compassionate,
She has changed the world with her song.
She saves the lives of children with her love and music,
She takes away your pain with a wink and a smile,

I've even seen her fly above the ocean's waves.

Yes!  I have met a Super Hero.

How about you?

Each afternoon I look to the West
And try to see far to the East;

I am aware the day is dying,
I see the Sun bleeding red!
Sun is collapsing into death and darkness,

Into such a cold winter's blackness,
So lonely, I am missing you,

Impossible!

Suddenly I awake in a far away place,
So strange are my feelings for this place,
Feelings of love for a place I have never lived,

Impossible!

I see a tall spire reaching for the sky on a mountain,
I seem to recognize you, but you are not what I remember,
Now I see a Seoul Standing in front of the moon.

I bow to you.

You have grown into a beautiful place,

Impossible!

I still have memories of you from so long ago,

An Impossible dream or is it a dream come true?

Waking Dream
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
Looking at the cloudless sky, filled with stars
I feel so like I'm flying and strange sometimes,

We live in different times,
Different worlds,

Yet you and I meet,
Alone in our secret place
A mystical, magical, peaceful place,
Where, flowers smell so sweet,

Where we dance and, dance, all night long,
Until the misty morning daylight,

Looking at the cloudless sky, filled with stars,
I hear the roar! of a sports car,

Only a dream.

Crush
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
You always look past me,
I'm dancing right here,
Why can't you see me?

You never look at me!
Always, I'm dreaming of you.
Look just a little beyond your
Past.  She's gone.  You will see
Me standing here. Waiting for your smile.

I'm dreaming dreams of you and me,
Dancing, under a palm tree, on a moonlit night
Right before the dawn's bright light,
Here, holding me in your strong arms tonight.

Why can't you turn your head a little?
Can't you say hello to me?
You are always looking beyond me. Who do you
See instead of
Me?

Love Lasts
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
Some people,
Love only things. This love never
Lasts. Things break!

A true love can last a
Lifetime,
True love is patient,

Love means more than saying, “I love you.” Love
Lasts even as our souls pass into Heaven,
Forever love. I will stand by your side.

Only In My Dreams
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
You exist only in my dreams;

You surprised me last night,
As the morning came,
You quietly disappeared without a word,
Leaving behind;
My memories,
My thoughts of you,

You only live;
In my dreams,
In my heart,
And in my memories,

You only exist,
Deep in my dreams,

Still, I remember,
We walked side by side
Together, in the ancient city of Seoul;
A city so far away from here,
So very long ago,

It only took;
One look,
One smile,
One wink,
For our souls to touch,
And say, “You are very precious to me.”  

Although, you only live;
Deep in my dreams,
In my heart,
And in my memories,

My beautiful Korean princess,
I write these,
Poems for you,

Why do we only meet in dreams?
Are we destined,
To meet in this world some day?

Although, you only live;
In my dreams,
In my heart,
And in my memories,
My beautiful Korean princess,
I write these poems for you,

Still, you only live;
In my dreams,
In my heart and,
In my memories,

Why do we only,
Meet in dreams,
Of the past?

Broken Promises
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
At one time, you would always be part of my world,
At one time, you would always be part of my life,
At one time, you would always be part of my heart!

These were promises made,
That, would not be broken!

These were only empty spoken words. Words that
Were never true;
Promises only to deceive,
Made only to receive
That gift of love.  I
Would only give to my only real love
Not to anyone but you. How could I,
Be such a fool? I have fallen for you and
Broken my heart.

Blue Eyes
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
As I look into your eyes;

Your eyes look,
Just like the blue color of a cloudless sky,
Without raindrops of tears,

Your eyes look,
Just like the shinning deep blue sea,
I can get lost in them,

I am like a lonely cloud,
Lost in your sky,
With my lonely tears of rain falling,
On to sparkling ocean waves of blue.

Pain
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
We relive our pain so many times,
Like the pain of a cold knife sticking into our hearts,
We are separating once again,
There are no excuses to give,

Our yesterday was too long,
We can not remain together,
Our tomorrow is too far away,

This pain can not bring us back to happiness,
You carry my dreams with you,

No matter how we say goodbye,
We relive our pain,

Our tomorrow is too far away.

What Should I do?
Ronald J Chapman Dec 2014
I suddenly realized!
I've been standing still
Here for a long time,

I don't know what to do?
I don't know where to go?

I miss you,
I miss you more each day,

Have you thought about me?
It was so long ago
Since I've seen you,

Do you still care for me?

My heart is so heavy now, as heavy as a rain storm,
How can I carry it back to you?

Do you still think of me today?

What should I do?

Looking At You
Ronald J Chapman Nov 2014
Looking At You

When I look at you,

I'm looking at a dream;

I look at your stunning beauty,
Your beauty,
Is like a bright sunrise on a summer seaside beach,

I look at your gorgeous brown eyes,
Looking into your eyes,
Is like falling into a deep thick chocolate milkshake,

I look at you smiling at me,
Your smile,
Is like looking at thousands
Of budding pink Sakura flowers,

I look into your heart,
I see a warm, kind, pure, angelic soul,

But you are in a place I can never reach,

From thousands, of miles away, I am looking at a dream,
With a smile and eyes full of laughter.

I Don't Want To Wake Up
Ronald J Chapman Nov 2014
Are my dreams of you,
Blessings or curses?

I don't want to wake up,
Not now!

It's you,
The girl who makes me believe in love,

Are we destined to meet?
You, the girl in my dreams,

This love is,
Only in a dream,

I don't want to wake up,
Not now!

But, do you truly exist?

A dream that I never want to let go of,

This love is,
Only in a dream,

You have no name,

But, do you truly exist?

I never want to let you go,

I want to spend eternity with you,

I don't want to wake up,
Not now!

Torn Apart
Ronald J Chapman Nov 2014
I only see me in the photograph;

You left without a goodbye!

Have I torn our dreams apart?
Leaving me! With a lonely future,

I only see me in the photograph;

Have I torn our hearts apart?
Leaving, a pain in my heart,

I only see me in the photograph;

I have to forget the past,
Toss this torn photo in the trash and,
Move on at last.
