I saw her today.
She was in that park again.
Her innocent face drown me in inveterately of my thoughs.
It's been a while since i have beEn thinking about her.
My innocent love for her innocency...
My thoughts within me.
Today I made a mistake
Tomorrow I will learn a lesson
Yesterday I had a dream

My travelling tales
My smile lines
My tear stained cheeks

Failed to be fortunate
Fortunate to have failed
Fostering formidable foundations

Habitually I look out my window
I seek as always, a rainbow
For it’s the most beautiful of God’s creation
For the poet in me, it’s an insatiable temptation

But as I see the skies and I admire
More than I’ve ever seen or known
How can I miss dawn’s offer to my desire
To fall upon what for most is disdain, thence unknown

As sun hides behind the opaque skies
Only lights the clouds, a picturesque
The heavenly image drawn behind my eyes
Whispers “admirer of me, a poesy is due”

And my mind fills swiftly with your portraits
Covertly but leisurely, tastes like parfaits
In fantasy of my courteous ecstasy, and is cozy
I’m inspired, so I pen for you a fresh poesy

you must think i'm stupid, huh?
i saw you for what you were,
yet still i went for the ****.
but the joke was on me.
you were the gasoline and i was
the match.
the flames you emitted engulfed me.
i never had the chance of coming out alive,
and you knew that.
you devoured me whole.
i ignited you, but you burnt me.
if only you hadn't smoldered me with your deadly charm.

Father, father, please don't go
I have something to tell you that you don't know
I couldn't get past the wires and tubes between me and you
As your life slowly drains out of its colorful hue

Father, father, why did you go?
When all is unfinished and unresolved
I gave you my heart, but you never took it
You gave me life but now it's all crooked

Father, father, how can you leave?
How can we start over when our hearts are bleeding from the pain you weaved
I never told you I have always loved you, as you never did to me
I never told you I have forgiven you for everything you did to me

But father, father, please come back
Cradle me in your arms, mend my heart that you cracked
I want to be a child again, so we can all be fine
I love you, Father, because you were mine.

My father passed away last October.
