I am nothing
If not human in
My own right

I am not an angel
I cannot save
Every lost
Person
Who stumbles
Drunk into
My
Path


Though I may try

I won't read minds
Or keep
Promises
Or
Accomplish
the impossible

I too am lost
And so
Afraid
Putting people together
Like shards of broken glass
Cutting
Myself
On all
Of their edges


I'm sorry that I am not
Eternal
Or smooth
And that I break too

*But I am human
Please remember
That I too
'Shatter'
My love fire of love has made me inferno
But it is your beauty which made me aglow
Cupid has made my heart injured with arrow
My sweetheart you are my heroine I am hero

Let me take from your beauty some dew drops
So seeds of love should grow up to real crops
Love with beauty dance hand in hand on hilltops
Allow your beauty to have with love swaps

What is love a fiery hell what beauty is to dwell
My sweetheart I am constantly under your spell
Being an iconoclast I am a reformer and a rebel
Please refine my state of love with beauty to excel

I Don't Want to Fight Anymore

I don't want to fight with you
anymore.

I am just projecting
the ugly tangled thoughts
that plague my mind.

It's easier to make you hurt
than to feel it myself.

It's easier to access the ugly
than embrace the beautiful.

Most of the time,
it's easier to just hate you
instead of give you the love
you so deserve.

On the bank of an endless river
There is no money to be saved
All the waste of life is washed and clean
Presented to the future still dripping
And you are waiting there for me
And I am waiting here for you
On the bank of an endless river
There is no change to be sought
All the days meld to nights sewn seamless and neat
Stretched taught over the space between birth and death
Where you are waiting for me
And I am waiting for you
On the bank of an endless river

It's a shame I don't drink,
I sit here and think,
As I'm here in the bar,
Love is like algebra,
Look, your ex is gone,
No need to rave on,
Who cares why they carry on?
That's why they're now gone,
Get over it and move on...
X looks at Y,
and wonders why,
Well, love was blind,
Old Shakespeare does pine,
You must get on with life,
We agree and sigh,
I'm here in this bar,
True love is like algebra!
Feedback welcome.

"While only death do us part.
I pray to the very God,
who put us together,
That you and I,
Should never part.
In this lifetime .........
Or the next."
death wedding love lifetime together vow

A new babe on the way,
Does she arrive today?
The stork is on standby,
Is she coming down the slide?
A star in heaven's berth,
Winging her way to Earth,
Now an atomic cluster,
Has she got a dust buster?
Her future unplanned,
Soon in Earthling's band,
When is she coming down the slide?
Right now, the stork is on standby!
Feedback welcome.
Kayotic Tragedy Feb 2016
Utinam hic quidem me solum relinquatis et caerulei oculi penetrare cogitabant mala mihi. Crudelibus modis agit , et intuitus est angeli.
English translation: If only did he produce me ye may leave alone , and blue eyes penetrate : they devised evils to me. Ways, cruel , and he beheld the angel.
The tangible presence of Jehovah,
is an overwhelming ease in my soul;
the wearisome cares of this World
slough off, reaffirming His control

over all of creation, time and space.
His sense of freedom from hardships,
constraints, embarrassments, pain,
and efforts dissipate as relationship

with Him, overpowers Life’s moments
in quick glimpses of divine intimacy.
The peace of Heaven calms my spirit,
whenever I give myself to Him and see

my identity, that’s found in Christ.
