DREAMS OF PASSION

Vehement hunger stirs my mind to wake me from my conscious dreams
Incalescent waves of passion against which I am bound
Forsake me now, my gilded goddess. Whose heart like sapphire gleams

Lead me to your splendored touch, my senses yet confound

Your visage haunts my mortal blood, while palms remain alone
I mourn your touch. My heart’s dirge trumpets slowly for your caress

Memories bleeding through my soul without our dyad known
But hope still lingers ever forward while your heart I possess

Apathy


my apathy towards you is earned
ask me why and I'll explain that you have not learned
that my love is fragile not to be broken
once it is it will be as if we have never spoken
but still you hurt me as if it's a game
and expecting my love to be the same
how dare you try to seek
something in a life you created bleak

Your kisses
Are flowing
Through whining pebbles
And widening like river.
While the small
Fishes are splashing
In the blood-and
There is a kingfisher
On my vein.

Pain is only pain

Yes, Pain is only Pain,
And nothing ever stays the same.
So, let us play life's silly game,



Applaud the sun and curse the rain.
Our so-called 'goals' we'll strive to obtain,
Some ground we'll lose, some we'll gain.
Victory- so Sweet! Defeat- such Shame!
Life is only a Dream,
And Pain is only Pain!

Joy and Pleasure

Now, joy is born of parents poor,
And pleasure of our richer kind;
Though pleasure's free, she cannot sing
As sweet a song as joy confined.

Pleasure's a Moth, that sleeps by day
And dances by false glare at night;
But Joy's a Butterfly, that loves
To spread its wings in Nature's light.

Joy's like a Bee that gently sucks
Away on blossoms its sweet hour;
But pleasure's like a greedy Wasp,
That plums and cherries would devour.

Joy's like a Lark that lives alone,
Whose ties are very strong, though few;
But Pleasure like a Cuckoo roams,
Makes much acquaintance, no friends true.

Joy from her heart doth sing at home,
With little care if others hear;
But pleasure then is cold and dumb,
And sings and laughs with strangers near.


William Henry Davies

I’m Self Confident


With your self-confidence, you will succeed
No longer will your heart painfully bleed
As humans, we have our twists and turns
However, from these problems we always learn
Life has its own road and way
But you have your opinion, actions, and your say
Although life may bring you down
Don’t ever respond with a frown
Instead of giving up and letting go
Just cope with the problems and let them flow
In the end, a solution will be made
And no longer will fear and doubt be your shade
Perfection is a fictitious word you should never follow lead
If you seek perfection, you will never succeed
Just take a step at a time to regain your confidence again
However, along the path there will be pain
You will make mistakes along the way
But never let your faults forever stay
Wisdom will guide your every step
And will erase all the bad memoirs


that you have long kept
You will regain your self-confidence bit by bit
The worse may happen but you mustn’t quit…
Marria Attar

Are you fearful?
To tell me what you really feel?
On this warm summer’s night.
It’s seems so convoluted, in your mind.
Not knowing,
where you’ll take your next step.
I hear the whispers in the night…
Calling you…
Trying to take you away.
So unsettled you’ve become…
False hopes and promises…
You want to believe.
Is it all a dream?

Damn you for doing this…



Are you Fearful?

It’s going to cost you in the end.
Tell me what you are going to do?
Please don’t shut me out?
Really you might need me in the end…
When he decides to walk away?
You think you thought it all out…
Ways out you think to set you free.
You just trade one chain for another…
You’ll be more alone than ever.
All in the name of what?
Love you think is simple…
Love you think is the answer…
Sight of what is to come.
Blinded,
you’ve become to what really could be…
You move down your road,
full of misguided hope...
Every step you take,
leaving you to trip and fall...
Sooner or later you won’t be able to get up.
