remove the chains
that bind me
unmask the truth
that suffocates me
reveal the slivers
that penetrates me
like the sunset
i bade farewell
to you
and found beauty
in the stillness
of dawn

if i was with you . .
i would have surprised you with a gift
i might have sang a special song
then danced and pranced like crazy
till i hear that hearty laugh from you
if i was with you . .
i would have planted kisses
in your soft lips
and traced my fingers
in your warm body
that comforts me
if i was with you . .
you may have heard me speak
that i am so much in love with you . .

as
loneliness
creeps in
succumbing
in darkness
i cling
on thorny
branches
that forces its way
to my skin
a reminiscence
of buried
memories
that haunts me . . .
by Rob
let go . .
i beg you
stop haunting me
and tell
your ghost
no more
for
i want
to trust and be trusted
to love and be loved
to be able to see beauty
to believe that there is
tomorrow
and the sun will rise
i want to experience ecstacy
and there is life
after
and inspite of
all this . .
i would want to
exist
as a human again . .
allow me
by Anonymous
warmth
that creeps
in my naked
skin
i quiver
as i ask
once more
for this
feeling
that calms
my spirit
and touches
my soul . .
by Rob
is it fated
like an inevitable occurence
i found you
unaware of your existence
i felt a rush
a surge of emotion
that enveloped my soul
ecstatic,
in a state of nirvana
i drifted
gently in the air
you liquefy me
overflowing . .
i desire to possess you
embrace me with your warmth
i am yearning . .
but if time sets still
if destiny decides
that this is just a mirage
i will shed my tears
willfully accept the pain
and quietly return
in my undone
shallow grave . .
