Crosses

Eyes bloodshot red

from crying intensely of pain.

Too many storms have passed,

and still a heavy heart is existent.

The crosses are like a boulder 

on my back, increasing weight,

as I climb up the mountain top. 

The pain is so much to bear,

but silence comes with patience

to withstand it all.

Should a rainbow appear,

will I find my inner peace

with that pot of gold in the end?

Death of Friendship

There is that hole

piercing through my heart,

with pain from over a year ago.

A pain that has made me incomplete,

like a puzzle missing waiting to be complete.

At times, weakness strikes with no warning,

making me fall to my knees.

My hands clasping my head so tight,

that I no longer feel the same,

rather a stranger walking around 

some foreign place.

My heart is as cold as death,

numb with lidocaine.

Unable to feel the beauty, 

joys, laughter, and love.

All that is there, sorrow.

Sorrow for the pain inflicted upon me, 

like a knife stabbing me from behind.

Pronouncing death over many memories
of a genuine friendship that is no longer existent.

Bare

I want you to come a little closer

Listen to my heart and soul

Open another side of me to

Bare myself and who I am

Underneath it all.

Watch me move mountains.

To the skies I dance,

with the wind moving my body

gracefully, as I twirl happily 

to the music surrounding me.

Listen to my voice,

for they will speak from the depths of my soul.

My words will fill you up,

with what goes on underneath my skin. 

It comes running through my veins,

my silence, 

I hid from the world

waiting to bare it all from my heart.

Young Love

There was a time I could recall, a time I recall that I was in love.

In love like seeing sparks flying in the moonlit night,

that I could vanish many moons away into the still of the night.

Then there were those days when I would be playful

playing hide-and-seek after class because I wanted you to chase me

to chase me in between classes.

Although I knew, the sole purpose was to hide from you,

and to duck away from your big hugs that engulfed my body, every time I saw you.

Then there were those times on the phone,

on the phone I would be talking about my day.

Then suddenly bursting into some song whatever comes my way.

Singing songs to you straight from the heart,

hoping to brighten your day with the sound of my voice.

Then ending it, with who hangs up first with a million times of I LOVE YOU.

Until one of us hung up bidding the world adieu.

The Name

What's in a name?

A name that rings, softly in my ears.

Like bells chiming when the wind blows.

A name that only reminds me of you.

The individual that makes my heart smile inside

At one simgle glimpse of you.

Seeing you,

my heart skips a beat when you are around.

Making me feel so conscious,

Of everything I do second by second.

Your precious smile, that you wear daily.

With those jeans and tee, you rock so simply.  

Reflecting your simplicity and individuality.

Your genuine personality,

God-fearing with authenticity for Him.

Filled with passion, setting hearts on fire

with your love for Him.

The Candle

Life is short.

One never knows when the time is burnt.

The flames that were once aglow,

now ends, wax melting low.

The fire lit for the duration of life,

ablaze creating memories daily with love,

withers away when flames are blown.

Like a wind, 

blowing the flames instantly without being warned.

Another flame of the candles vanishes into thin air.

At times, creating a sudden shock within familiar faces.

Creating a somber mood,

filled with indescribable thoughts of such untimely occurrence.

That death is never predictable,

rather it can be untimely or within it's own reasonable time frame.

Idealism

Many say friends come and go.

I think, we all grow apart and let go.

Every individual wants to feel loved.

I think, everyone is loved by God.

Others feel alone, searching for the one.

I think, God is still molding the one in heaven.

Some fall apart, when humps of life spring up along the way.

I think, others find the strength to jump it along the way.

Most rise up from falling on their knees.

I think most rise up because of faith from the heavens,

Glorifying His name during the toughest obstacle encounters in life.
