POETRY THAT COMES FROM THE HEART AND SOUL: 2015

Thursday 31 December 2015

I STAND AND WAIT

Upon this shores gate

This wide expanse that is filled with waste

It stretches beyond the lands and hands

Those have laid their hands upon

Looked upon

Walked upon these sands

Whilst I am here standing and waiting

I look out to the distance

The waves rising and falling

Just like our love

Never knowing whether we are

Coming and going

Just like two passing ships in the night

For a short while you are here

Oh such bliss I can hear

This heart has been touched

So very, very much

It is so hard when we depart

It tears this heart

So wide apart

Oh this aching, aching heart!

The absolute sheer ecstasy

The thrill so bliss

The excitement with your kiss

The passion in your touch

Oh the love I feel so much

The happiness that we feel

A happiness that feels surreal

The pleasure and the pain!

What more can we gain?

You have me in a trance

With just one glance

Come back my lover!

LOST AND FOUND

There was a time that I’d lost you

Lost you in time and space

It was a time that you erased

Erased, eradicated me from your life

You captured this heart then tore it apart

My heart felt so battered and bruised

And all you ever wanted was to be my muse

I sure as hell was not amused

How did I not see the being used?

How did I lose myself with you?

How much did I lose?

One hell of a lot

So here I am in the lost and found

There is no sound

Just an empty, empty silence

The wind howling

I’m trying not to scowl

Picture perfect face

With not a trace

Yet there is a trace

Right here, right here

So very, very near

My eyes so sore with crying

Inside feels like I am dying

The log fire is burning away here

But not bringing any cheer

The sun outside shining so clear

Yet within me it is so, so dull

The light and the life

That was so evidently here

Has gone, gone

And here I sit alone

Tempting it might be

Tempting it could be

To go outside

There are too many memories

Out there!

Where we both used to care

You made me believe

That we were so, so true

Through and through

So how can it be so wrong?

Wrong, wrong

To feel so blue

Through and through

I fell for you like a stone

Now I feel like a cold, cold stone

The whole world seems so cold

There is no warmth out there

And here also

Every room empty

Filled with emptiness

Your memories, your ghost

Still exists

I’m so lost and yet to be found

Given time and space

It will happen!

All that is needed, required

Is to find myself

And get off the shelf

Get off the floor

Out of this solitary existence

But not just yet

This bird will fly

As time passes by

From this subsistence

BLOWING HEAVENLY BLISS

BLOWING HEAVENLY BLISS

With an open hand from heaven

I blow you this kiss

With loads of happiness

The pleasure I get to give you

For each and every one of you

It comes with much blessedness

For the whole day through

I see you below

Watching the sky, moon and stars

And all the planets too

Ribbons of light and colours

Purples, blues, oranges, green

All wrapped and snuggled for you

The flowers billowing, fluttering their petals

Oh look they are waving too

The birds in the sky, flying high

Flapping their wings in tune with the breeze

So for now I must say bye, bye

And wish you all a merry day

MESSAGES FROM AFAR

MESSAGES FROM AFAR

On golden wings spread so wide

The dove and messenger flies by

It brings forth peace, love and happiness

Its graceful wings flapping without ease

The dove flies to the fair maiden

He has a message for her from lands far away

She holds out her hand so gracefully

So gently

And there before her eyes she sees

A boat afloat there in the distant seas

In the wings of the dove

The sun a glowing, shining brightly

The sea glimmering, shimmering so beautifully

The mountains as the background scenery

Tall and standing so strong

White snow peaks

All around in the sky are shooting stars

Stars to make a wish upon

Twinkling, blinking, shimmering

Every one of them flickering a message from the heavens above

Puffy white clouds scudding by

Oh why?

This is a starry, starry night!

But here anything can happen in a wondrous world like this

So full of happiness and bliss

A place of mystery, mysteries

Fairy tales and mystical stories

SO CRAZY ABOUT YOU!

There is nowhere to hide

I cannot disguise or be disguised

I am open and revealed

Baring all

My heart like and open book

Crazy with passion

Crazy with hope

Insane, insanity

Washes over me

You make me shine in the dark

Where there was once so much bleakness

A woman who was so meek and mild

She is still here!

But you have changed her

It is so much greener now

The colours accentuated

I’ll give you the best

I’ll give you the future

You’ve untangled this web of distrust

You’ve untangled this web of loathing into love

You’ve changed me into loving you and myself

You’ve changed me totally

This is the time to say you are my sun

My moon

My stars

My eyes up to the heavens

Happy, happily

Not a cloud in sight

Just an undescrible

Aura of light

So bright

That I cannot fight

And all because of you!

I’m in so, so deep with you

And never want to come out

Without doubts

You make me want to dance in the rain

You make me want to sing in the rain

Oh my love sent from above

The one and only that has freed me

I’m never letting you go!

Like I know you’ll never let me go

I’m so much in love

That it hurts deep inside

Where you’ll always reside

You never critically critic

You edge me to the rightfulness

Lead me to fearlessness

A brand new woman

Looking at herself

In all her nakedness

Recklessness

Oh my guy this is heaven

Heaven

Wanting to dance to the rhythm

To the beat

To the rhythms heat

Naked, naked

Naked truth

Truth

Let’s keep to this beat

And never, ever stop

Sway to the rhythms beat

Feeling our bodies heat

Heat, heat

I’m so, so crazy about you!

You, you!

I don’t want to be alone

Alone, alone

For ever more

WHAT DO YOU SEE IN ME?

A woman that won’t conform

A woman that won’t give a damn

A woman that’ll do what she wants

A woman that’ll jump ship when all goes wrong

A woman that’ll beat her own drum

Drum, drum

Bang, bang

Slam, slam

A woman that’ll blow her own trumpet

Oh yeah

A woman that’ll strut her stuff

Pout her mouth

At you, at you

Guess what?

She’s a woman born free

Free, free

Spirited, spirited

Hoist her sails

Whether you like it or not

I’m not proud

But boy oh boy I can be loud!

If you want to sail this ship

Right from your hip

Then come on by

And say hi

And maybe, just maybe

We’ll get on just fine

Will we wine and dine?

Then hopefully be mine?

Maybe over time

Year after year

There has been manier tear

I’ve sailed the many oceans

North and south

East and west

But every sail billowed

With emptiness

Emptiness

Unhappiness

The decks sparse

Oh come on babe lets sail away

Escape, escape

Escapade

I miss you

Miss you much

Miss your touch

I’m out of control

Out of control

Come and take this helm

Steer me in the right direction

Can we dive into each other’s oceans?

Sail off into those wide blue oceans

Where we’ll never come back

We’ll give each other some slack

We’ll pout

We’ll shout

We’ll see who we are

Sail so far

I’ll see who you are!

We’ll see what we are made of

We’ll watch the birds above

We’ll cling to each other

Through the rocking, rolling waves

So come on over

And tame this bird

THIS LOVE SCARES ME SO

I’m in too deep

But I want to keep you

Never leave you

Yet I want to walk away

Away, away

I was once a silhouette

Walking in the shadows

The dark, dark shadows

Nothing real

Nothing surreal

I used to turn away

At lovers walking by

Hand in hand

Looking at each other lovingly

A woman and a man

Oh how I coveted

Wanting, needing

Needing, wanting

A man of my own

Walking hand in hand

I listened to love songs

Sobbing, weeping

Wishing, dreaming

That was me with my man

Just you and I

Me and you

Then you came

Out of nowhere

Like a maelstrom

Wondering, pondering

Why did you take so long!

Believing it would never happen

And here you are!

My dream, my wish

Yet I am so, so scared

It’s a pure love is ours

A love untainted

I cannot resist

I’m listening to reasons

The logical, the feelings

I’m closing my eyes

Then I open them

And you are still here by my side

Where I always want you to reside

This new love is bliss

Oh yeah, oh yeah

Singing, singing

Shouting out loud

That I must listen to love

My open heart

I must listen to love

This sweet, sweet love

This deep, deep love

This gentle, gentle love

Turning my world around

This heart goes out to you

Pounding, beating

Softly, gently

And my tears keep pouring

Pouring in happiness

And here we are

Crossing this bridge

A new bridge

A new beginning

In the lashing rain

Forgetting all my pain

Where there was nothing to gain

And this where I keep your heart

Where I’ll never let you go

Listening to my intuition

Singing a happy song

Yet this love scares me so

Yet I love you in the here and now

Whatever the weather

Your love is brighter than the shining stars

Whatever the future holds

I’m holding onto the here and now

This love scares me so

But I’ll never let you go
