Strum the strings and spill my soul
Little things; they make me whole
Lovely line,
She said I’m fine,
Never thought of what she stole
Click the keys and tell my tale
Wring my hands and grip the rail
Too tight, not right,
Don’t speak tonight,
Just freeze and hold your crook and flail
Turn it up and make a scene
Steal the crown and say you’re Queen
Can’t erase
Your perfect face
Project your image to the screen
So I grasp my charm like it’s an ax
Used to fend off their attacks
Slashed with words
Still unheard
Now it’s time to face the facts...
A pocket of my heart,
...it holds a special charm.

Token, an image, the gift,
...of you on my arm.

My heart is weak,
my soul is deep with words I can’t speak
But, will you understand?
I prefer to be in close proximity to your charming eyes
when words  aren't enough to communicate this love
I’m in an endless race to catch your heart
Because my heart is weak,
and my soul is deep with words I can’t speak.
Do you love me
LIKE MY EMOLLIENT HEART DOES ?
this poem is written back then when I was at high school, to our dearest teacher..

The silent moon
over the old pond
perhaps lost for words.
If only it could
describe the charm
mirroring a mirror
of ancient calm!

Tell me that you love me,
Until my heart is full,
And my soul is happy.

Tell me that I made sense of your world,
For we both
Shed tears at the midnight hour.

Kiss me with your wine stained lips,
Smother me with your charm
Ressurect me,
When the sun rises over the horizon,
And brings the same warmth as you brought me.

That is when we remember how much passion was in this wine glass.

Have you ever lost someone whom you cared for?

The third string of the guitar
hummed the last of sounds
Into a fading tune of memory
that I tightly held upon
Bruised and tattered hands
as I hoped to make it last

But I would be the happiest
to see you in your charm

In the silence of the piano keys,
I saw you pass me by
For you have shown me the laughter
that is far long gone
I will miss you in my loneliness,
but you won't make me sad

For I will be the happiest
to see you in your charm.
Have you ever lost someone whom you cared for?

The clashing waves whispered into my ears.
Standing in front of the Sapphire blue,
The warmth from the pale softness under my feet wrapped away my fears.
The calmness of the never ending ceiling left no clue.
The time passed slower than the emerald jewel departing into the foam.
The whiteness cast a shadow over me as it sang freely,
If only I could be like them and carelessly roam.
The clashing tides seduced me into it’s embrace, warmly yet eerily.
Will I be able to sink into the royal blue darkness?
Or will I be drifted off into the cold and empty waters
As the I closed my eyes and left myself to the painful sweetness,
“Nothing really matters”
The words she said flashed before my eyes.
The mesmerising yet deadly ocean,
resembled her under all her disguise.
It was the hidden side of her that she kept for so long, all the beauty and the emotion.
Her soul was the ocean and I was drowning in her charm

A lily given and adorns my hair;
my lucky charm.
Short and sweet! ^-^
