"oversteps" poems
You with your bedroom eyes Soulful, piercing and wise Raw emotion And total devotion Your Hemingway jawline And your bottle half full of wine Substance overcomes shyness But it never oversteps your kindness A smile that can break millions Unfortunately you've captured the heart of a civilian There is a distance That makes me lean towards the path of least resistance Since Baby, we're living on borrowed time Waiting on that day where you can finally be mine.

I Left My Heart in Oceanside
A piece of Africa in Asia. Thirst, hunger and hysteria. I am Gaza, 'Mother of all Prisons'. Expanse of unexplored sea. Here each child is born unfree. I am Gaza, 'Mother of all Prisons' Walls of steel and concrete. Freedom confined to streets. I am Gaza, 'Mother of all Prisons'. They're born and will die here. Must live in shadows of fear. I am Gaza, 'Mother of all Prisons'. Bulldozed houses in ruins. Within them the playful urchins. I am Gaza, 'Mother of all Prisons'. Fire rains from time to time. Asking for freedom is crime. I am Gaza, 'Mother of all Prisons'. Stop screaming, O mother! Here lay dead your brother. I am Gaza, 'Mother of all Prisons'. Like ****** Jailers are strong. Much above right and wrong. I am Gaza, 'Mother of all Prisons'. Hitler's foes walk in his steps. Each day cruelty oversteps. I am Gaza, 'Mother of all Prisons'. Inside calvary and martyrdom. Outside cowardice is dumb. I am Gaza, 'Mother of all Prisons'. On world map I am just a dot. But still era's big black spot. I am Gaza, 'Mother of all Prisons'. I am Gaza, 'Mother of all Prisons'.

I am Gaza, 'Mother of all Prisons'
The divinity in your nature, Reflects comfort, when you nurture. Words fall short when I define, As you gleam through the shadows of mine. The soul of mine embraces you from the depths Even when my mistake oversteps Your smile turns my nightmares joyful, And makes my world meaningful. I marvel through your mystic puzzles, Till this mortality reaches the fizzle. The playful words and impish looks, You pull me closer with these hooks. The isolation of the past, Is just a phase at last. The warmth you give me with trust, Keeps my mind away from the rust. You glow in me like the sun in the winter, And makes my life and soul to glitter. The nocturnal presence of you, Keeps me away from feeling blue. Shimmering hair and brown-painted eyes, Makes me insane and the heart complies. Times with you during the skies of ember, I couldn’t forget, to remember.
