THE CATHEDRAL OF YOUR INDIFFERENCE

You gave me nothing I could hold, yet I have held it anyway— the crumbs, the glances, the half-smiles tossed like pennies in my tray. I built a god from your neglect, I prayed to silences you kept, I knelt before the altar of the hours that you overslept. You never struck me down, my love, you simply let me kneel and stay, and that was crueler than a blow—you let me worship and decay. I know the weight of every door that closed behind you, soft and slow, I know the hollow in the room where your absence started to grow. I filled it with my desperate hope, I stuffed it full of fevered dreams, I painted over cracks with wishes, mended everything with seams of "maybe someday," "if," "perhaps"—a tapestry of things that never would be, could be, should be mine, but I wore it like a tether. You were the match and I the wood, you were the spark and I the flame, but you walked away before the fire could even learn to speak your name. You left me burning in the dark...

When Hearts Learn to Bend

People transform like seasons, sometimes tender, sometimes abrupt. Dreams that once blazed fiercely can flicker and fade, leaving embers where hope once lingered. Hearts fracture in ways they were never meant to, splintering quietly beneath the weight of unspoken words, of love unrequited, of trust betrayed. The ache stretches long, resonating in the hollow chambers of your soul, a reminder that life is fragile, and even the strongest can falter. And yet, today arrives, soft as a whispered prayer, bearing serenity that hovers just above your wounds. The sun leans through the clouds, casting gold along the edges of grief. And you remember: even shattered hearts can cradle beauty, even dimmed dreams can teach resilience, even the harshest transformations can unveil the tender power of truly being alive. So inhale deeply. Let the stillness wash over you. Let the lingering ache remind you that you endured, and that peace, patient and gentle, has always been waiti...

Breath, Walk

 In the whirlwind of life's chaotic race, We often forget to slow our pace. With each passing day, we strive to climb, But sometimes, we must take it one step at a time. A day at a time, we must embrace, The beauty hidden in life's simple grace. For in these moments of calm and peace, We find solace and a much-needed release. Let go of the burdens that weigh you down, The mistakes, the regrets, the constant frown. Embrace the power of a brand-new start, And mend the wounds that once tore you apart. Move on from the things that held you back, The toxic relationships, the dreams that lacked. Discover the strength that lies deep within, And let your journey of healing begin. It's not about rushing towards the end, But about savoring the joy life can send. Take each day as an opportunity to grow, And let your inner light continue to glow. Remember, life's a marathon, not a race, And finding balance is the key to embrace. So, slow down, breathe, and take it all in, For in th...

THE RETURN

I guess it's time to come back home, it's needless to sit here alone while nature ...nature has paved a way for me. i guess it's time,  dreams harbored as a teenager pursue, they seemed out of reach waiting, wailing, ailing, yearning ...not forthcoming One, two, three...twelve years to be precise a dream long abandoned Now I know why survive they could not it had to be you. Sweetheart, look yonder my eyes still twinkle at the sight of you No longer a teenager tested and scared by life, yet, my heart speeds and slows ... at the sight of you. See, baby... it never stopped you were my teenage dream ...that I wished on a star. I guess, it always comes to pass ...when you wish hard enough. Coming home, where laughter is our music, you, my entertainer, me, your audience...its how it's supposed to be listening, encouraging, supporting... you thought I was nice then... now, babe, am more refined and polished ... lif...

Reborn...

It's been a while, time, space, distance, They have all left me in a trance, I somehow lost my wit, My heart left me in a splint Am empty, poetry I don't wanna taint So I'll just be brief You see, It's all coming back to me, I was, yes, I used to be flawless in writing I had my inspiration, the best of me My sixth sense, but, with a name At whose sight my heart flattered ...and hummed to a stop if I forgot to breath. Everything was magnified then; the wit in me, the artist in me... My fingers always itched to pen As though I had swallowed Thesaurus then he left... and all came to a standstill till today... I think am finding myself again, ...or losing myself. Am back... my own inspiration

THE BRUTAL HEART

The pain, the anger, the frustration The bitterness that comes with betrayal Love that turns sour Robbing one of their dreams The anguish of losing one’s ground Falling and never rising again Some will call it madness I call it a power difficult to harness Love is pure wickedness A vice that accompanies weakness Turning joy to bitterness …and warped that which was flawless With a sharp sword engraved in my soul Avenge I must before I face Seoul You call me heartless I say, I just use my heart less Brutality mercilessly took my naivety Brutality assures me of my liberty An eye for an eye makes all of us blind However, a heart for a heart… alienates pain!

DIARY OF THE POET

It’s a drizzly overcast day, gloomy befits it, Yet, my heart glows, Reasons’ distraught at this unfathomable delight For in its divine knowledge… Caution is rendered inapt, For heart finds reason in love Reason with which reason cannot reason Heart assumes the conductors baton All uncertainties dissolve to passion, It defies reason, The earth painting green, where flora exists not It becomes our dance floor, you take my hand And the dance commences, sashay with me love You my symphony, I assume your tempo Deeply staring into your eyes Seeking for any sign of mendacity, love … Know what I see? Leaping arcs of desire… like a log in the sea We sail with the current, we cruise over the edge To the far periphery of paradise In dance, you’re a marvel of efficiency… Inexcusably gauche it shall be, if I fail to mention… The exquisiteness of your brown eyes… Them that display the color of a sea storm, They carry the weight of words l...

I said it then, I say it Now

Once said we live to love But if say, I live loved; I look into your eyes every single day Distant, yet so near Like a spark of light A twink in the sky A ray of delight Accustomed to enlight Or maybe mesmerize My mind’s become captive of your thought but if freedom is to be away, I don’ wanna be free If life is to be away I’ll fly away with you; When I hold mine heart in prayer A blessing to the best I request God will do the rest Time bound, life abound ....... Down you lay, prostrate in night I’ll be the dream that takes you away The light at dawn The wall above, the roof beyond Protect thee from the storm Your heart lay’s safe in mine I know mine’s safe in yours

Gateway to your Heart

Maybe i aint got the feet to run first enough Nor wings to fly Maybe i aint got the courage of a lion Or the wit of the eagle but i do know one thing i could borrow the wings of the bird, move my words in the whispers of the wind rise with the morning Dawn with the moon give me give me a gateway to your heart I have a pen to scribble A mind to riddle A heart to ripple but i aint stoppin' aint givin' up till U give me a gateway to your heart It aint all 'bout wit aint 'bout speed it'z about life this life this we live one we'll once leave but before that happens Give me Give me a gate-pass to your heart

Set Me Free!

What is all this struggle about, It is all a round about, Am finally convinced, I don belong here I have shed so many tears, Tears that I wanted you to wipe, Tears of the fear that you also don understand, When did I lose my right to love, When did love become vanity? Am losing my mind cant you see, Cant you realize that it is weighing me down, I never bargained for this, All I ever wanted was to love you, And maybe, you to love me in return, It was not my intention to be a prisoner, To walk with invisible chains all my life, And to experience such immense pain, It wasn't in my expectations! Too much pain is weighing me down, My love is turning to a sour feel, Am ashamed of what I have become, My heart, a prisoner in it's own shell, Free me, or, love me, That is all am asking for... I will lose my mind, my heart return to me, When you value it, return it to you I will! Free me, Let me walk my path, Yo take your own, Maybe, maybe someday... Our pa...

Please Understand Me

Sometimes I wonder if I say what you want to hear, Sometimes my efforts tend to wear, Afraid that I have lost you and you are not near, Sometimes I wonder if I instill fear, Sometimes I wonder which answer is appropriate, Considering that I should be considerate, Sometimes the pain in your eyes shutters my efforts, Considering that I fail your trust in me, Sometimes I wonder which actions are right, Considering our difference by nature, I watch you disappointed unable to understand, I know you expect me to be right, Your expectations increase by day, I do understand you want me to grow everyday, I fear to mention that our capacities differ, The energy in me tends to weaver, However, one thing remains certain, I love your sincerity, I love you trust in me, I love your being there, Everyday, Every hour and, Every moment, I will be here for you!

Remorseful

How often we wish for another chance To make a fresh beginning. A change to blot out our mistakes And change failure into winning. It does not take a special time To make a brand-new start, It only takes the deep desire   To try with all our heart. To live a little better,   To always be forgiving. To add a little sunshine, In a world for which we're living.   Never give up in despair Nor think you are through, For there's always a tomorrow, "A chance to start a new."

You are to me What Darkness is to the Star

I watch the stars scintillate, another day gone by, my thoughts I articulate, from them to create a lullaby, to lull him that I treasure, to the land of fairies. I watch the moon glow, and the breeze of the night blow, today, my heart you gave an adventure, I am happy in the joy of loving, the joy of believing, that forever, you will walk by me, that you won't tire loving me. I took the picture of your face, forever I will keep it in my heart, if destiny parts our paths, you will forever be in me, i will carry the good memories, 'coz you are a good memory too, you just need to whisper my name, and you will forever experience my presence. Keep my promises with you, those that I solemnly swore to you, like a good song, memorize the lyrics, remind me of them when I err for those, I live for, i will guard what we have, with my last breath, and with it, your name will escape my lips. I will solely rely on your word, that which puts a smile on my fac...

You are to me Worth the Universe

can i call You to tell of it To tell of these fragile heart of mine Can i call you to tell you To whisper of my secret longings Can i call you to tell it To tell of my hearts desire You a star The magic voice in the wind Your eyes Your eyes spark like the moon ray It aint no love story but please let me say Let me say of your grace One that makes nature tickle let me say of your art God's must've taken hours Distance is metaphoric But your love is symphonic My dear You've colored your speech let me, give me One dance with you You're here ...always in my heart A friend, confidant, What more'd i add

You drowned Me

I tightly held to what I called mine, The thought of love was unwelcome, the door to my heart was not passable, I watched the tears roll, yet my heart wasn't ready the past had a lesson deeply engraved in me, i was not ready to let go yet... You captivated my barren heart, you stole those keys from my safe that gentle gaze convinced me confident that I would not lose again I let go! the peace you instilled in me unfathomable the stars unleashed brightness that I can't contemplate... You stole my secrets, those that were deeply engraved within, i opened for you doors only I had access to, all my cherished treasures I gave you access to, bonded and blinded by love, my live ceased to be mine, in my little ways, I nurtured our you, i watched you blossom like a rose bud... I totally drowned in what you offered me, i ignored all possibilities laid before me i believed your every word to me, you were incapable of lying truth was your second name you prom...

My promise I still keep

I ain't far from you Your heart is mine, mine your I'll keep my word for you Fight storms if i have to walk past the barricaded walls to reach where U you If i have to be the wind i will Don't give up on me; mine ain't broken promises You say you're cold My arms are stretched Look past 'n' you'll see My dearest love ain't no crime Maybe, but maybe am a criminal to love to admire you smile your agility, fragility, lovability for i can not move from you though divided by distance my love for you, ain't deeming Watch the sky tonight the moon will have us holding hands, feeling a warm embrace of time, pace each day am praying time'd skip a beat that we be together again Like you my dear am lost lost if i ain't got you if i ain't got your smile I look at these picture i hold Walking down memory lane With no pain arcane Hoping my dear Hoping to hold you again make you secure Am a captive, a ca...

Broken promise

Image
Another year goes to record, Why has it taken you too long, If only you could feel my heart, Realize the amount of pain, that that you subject it too, maybe you would realize and hurry, fulfil that which you swore to me, that you would love me forever... Now I sit on this cold floor, Counting yet another year, It feels like a lifetime, the pain in my heart excruciating, i hold on to my heart, that shell of a heart that I still keep, it all feels like yesterday... Where did I make a mistake, when did this portion, this terror that it is over, that it has been over for a while, when did it become entirely mine, someone answer me, Is it a crime to love now... In darkness, I see silhoutte figures, I find myself lost in time, I wait to feel you gently blow on my neck, its unfortunate, It never will be, it is a dream, a dream long buried in time, I can only keep the memories, the only thing that I can call mine... Maybe you will be back so...
