To the Jealous Girlfriends

I love your man as my own brother
You have a chance to be my dear sister
All my deeds are in the light without shadows
My only scheme is to love you both as one

I am sad
But I am happy to disappear
It pains me to watch little trust you two share
I am standing on the hilltop
watching you slowly burn in jealousy

Do and Be

Life is fragile when we think it will go on.
Do things you always want to do and you don’t need to be ready.
Go places you always want to be without planning.
See people you want to see just because.
Say I love you to someone special and not worry if you hear it back.
Life is fragile and you live it as intended.

 

Another Fairy Tale Ends

The Living Poetry prompt – bench, rain

Continents apart day after day, “When you come back, I’ll be here.” I remember you said.

I am standing here foolishly holding onto a distant promise soaked in the winter rain.

The bench is painted red.

Is it a sign for good luck or just man made passion to hide the worn-out memory?

We need to be sure there is nothing left to say, to explain, to retain.

Pain, I finally ready to let go.

It shivers out of my heart into the cold.

Darkness

My heart is heavy
in mourning
suffocating
begging for air

He let satan deceive him
played God to murder
with his bare hands

His own will
took an innocent man’s life
in the name of justice

My soul is saturated
with despair
Father!
Have mercy on us!
Forgive us
as we sinned against
You!

Reasons of me not following your blogs include but not limited to:

Your blog does not fall into my reading interest areas.

I am not offended if you do not follow me, or follow me then unfollow me. To me, writer-reader relationship is like any other relationships, not every one is meant to last. I value the time when we share one.

Thank you wholeheartedly for following me or stopping by. Thank you for your encouraging comments or asking for clarification at times.

You are the rain for my poetry garden!

Gemini

The man in a suit, you are, so composed and strong

She trusts her life with you

The beast on the other hand, you too, untamed and utterly wild

She scratches and tastes coppery delight

This poem is inspired by The Fragrance Writer Jay Bleu’s original post Reflection Man

The Living Poetry prompt – Name

Sweet citrus floats on woody pine
Ageless wisdom abundant and fine
Golden dreams rest in your smile
Elegant green rope dresses up your crown
