143. THE RED BENCH IN THE PARK


You told me over the phone 
That you’d come and meet me 
Somewhere in the park 
Beneath that special tree 

I went there and I waited 
From seven in the morning until three 
Sitting on the red bench in the park
With an umbrella as my company 

Braving the cold winter wind
I kept waiting oh so patiently 
Your words kept ringing in my mind 
“Baby please be there for me” 

My tears then started falling 
And rolling down my cheeks 
My world came down crushing 
And everything seemed so bleak 

Everything seemed to fade 
Far away from my sight 
Maybe hidden by my tears 
Or enveloped by the night 

It was then I realised 
Something must have gone wrong 
You would never have made me 
Waited for you so long 

Now years had passed by 
But you're never forgotten 
You left without goodbye 
To be with God in heaven 

I just want you to know 
That the love you've given me
I will always treasure 
For eternity

142. MUST I DIE? (A Foetus' Lament)


Must I die 
for your wanton behaviour 
and loose moral 
to cover your shame 
and false dignity? 
What have I done 
to become the sacrifice 
of a world going nuts 
where moral standard 
is a thing of the past? 
Where wanton sex 
are just for pleasures? 
Why have you given 
me such brief life 
only to vanquish 
the tiny spark of what 
could be the greatest 
man Earth ever known? 
Who gave you the right 
to bring me from nothingness 
yet only to yank me away 
from what could have been
 my LIFE!

141. MY LOVE, WHEN YOU LOVE ME



I felt you slowly lay me down
Upon the couch our love nest be
With patience and wonder in silent count
you stripped me of all my dignity
But I didn't care if it's just that
For you I'd do whatever I could
I wanted you to make me complete
To possess me and put me in your mood

I felt your touch upon my skin
as I lay my head down to sleep
Like butterfly wings fluttering in the wind
I felt my heart skipped a beat
I felt your breath upon my cheeks
Your warm lips brushing mine
I felt my knees getting so weak
I was drifting into sublime

I felt your fingers through my hair
Your kisses trailing down my throat
I just wanted you to always be there
To go on loving me till I drop
I felt your hands caressing my back
Sending tingles right to my heart
Your arms imprisoned me Oh...so strong
Like we've never ever been apart

I felt your body so close to mine
crushing my bones till I couldn't move
I felt your lips exploring mine
searching my mouth looking for love
I felt your heart beating strong
against my own racing so fast
I knew that you're where I belong
I knew then you're my future my past

The moment could only be likened
To the cosmic birth of a star
To the music in crescendo
To the waves crushing afar
Peaking up until the heaven
Soaring high like an eagle fly
You were me and I was you
We were one beneath the sky

The world, the universe was ours
When you loved me......

140. THE RESPONSE (TO ForeVer's POEM)



Dearest,
I feel every pain that surges within you
I live every loneliness that lingers over you
I feel you're lost and out of place
Feel like an angel fallen out of grace
I feel your world stop spinning
I hear your heart stop beating
I feel your lips devoid of warmth
Your breath no longer coming
But your Sun didn't stop shining
It's only hidden by the clouds
Kneel no more my Sweetest Love
Come, fly away with me to our destiny
Listen carefully for the angels' harps
For Pan's flute and the singing dove
Let me feel your weakening pulse
For I shall not let you go
Nor shall I let you die
For in you I place my destiny
With you I place my life
Wake up My Love, feel my kiss
This is me you've waited for
From the universe I've come
To love you now and forever more
Live My Love, Live again
I'll plead to God to bring thee rain
And I shall flow over you, inside you
Breathe life into you
For I am your Sun as you are my Day
I will warm you till all the stars burn away
