The Gift

The Gift

~ ~ ~

There is a gift, precious as can be
A present, for more than one
It brings happiness, I guarantee
A lot of smiles, love and fun

You can find this gift everywhere
Most of the times even for free
You might not even know it’s there
It’s always given suddenly

It’s not wrapped or boxed at all
But it’s something you will adore
This gift can be big or small
Once received, it lasts forevermore

No returns, for it’s one of a kind
Keep it in your heart, treasured endlessly
There’s no search needed, it’s easy to find
This gift is…
a shared memory

Poem for today: Let’s pretend…

Let’s pretend

–

Let’s pretend

That my tears stop falling

And you come when I’m calling

So my soul can stop bleeding

–

Let’s pretend

Just for a moment

That times are still pleasant

And I can feel your embracement

–

Let’s pretend

That my heart was never fractured

My calls didn’t stay unanswered

And my hope never got shattered

–

Let’s pretend

You are still with me

Living free and happily

Enjoying life in all its beauty

–

Let’s pretend

Just for a little while

That I am still able to smile

And the nights aren’t hostile

–

Let’s pretend

I never had to say goodbye

That it was all a nightmare and a lie

Let’s just pretend…

That you did not die

Poetry for today: Replaceable

Replaceable

~

I thought I needed you
Because I believed you cared
A bond unbreakable
Unshakable
Uncompromising loyalty
But in reality
All was untrue

~

It was all a charade
Masquerade
So disreputable
Acting like we were inseparable
Imperishable
But the truth is
You forsaking me was
inevitable

~

Words are easy to say
Promises made with confidence
A pact sustainable
Believable
Durable reliability
But in reality
You did betray

~

True intentions are displayed
Dissuade
So incapable
Acting like it’s all erasable
Dispensable
But the truth is
You are the one who is
replaceable

~

Resonate

–

Sometimes I wonder

How we got so close, so fast

And then I ponder

Will it last?

 

A rare connection formed instantly

What is it, I ruminate

That red line between you and me

Is it coincidence or fate?

 

Sometimes I reflect

How our bond got so strong

It’s just perfect

But… for how long?

 

Compatible minds relate immediately

What is it, I speculate

That made us attach so easily

 Is it luck or something we create?

 

Sometimes I think about

How you became my friend

And I try to figure out

Will it end?

 

Sometimes I wonder

How two hearts unite so suddenly…

But then I stop and just appreciate

That red line between you and me

And I realize how amazing it is;

We have souls that resonate

Stuck in a Loop

Stuck in a Loop

–

Don’t try to

Unravel

The thoughts

In my mind

You will get

Lost

It’s a twisted

Chaos

Of random trivialities

All stuck in a

Loop

A rough sea

Of memories

All entwined

There’s no beginning

No end

Stuck in a

Loop

Don’t try to

Find me

It’s too dark

Inside

A desert of

Melancholy

An illogical puzzle

That can’t be

Solved

A mysterious labyrinth

Of confusing

Feelings

Stuck in a

Loop

Don’t try to

Fix

My heart

It’s broken

Beyond repair

Love withered

All that’s left

Is an echo

An illusion

Just

Don’t come

Close

You will only

get stuck in a

Loop

Happy Valentine’s Day!

A Monorhyme for Valentine

Throwback Thursday: The Darkness Inside

Addicted to you

Addicted to you

—

You enchant me

Instantly

Can’t escape your

Fascinating mind

–

I am addicted to you

–

You attract me

Like gravity

I just need

Your existence

–

You’re an alluring light

–

You overwhelm me

Immediately

Powerless against your

Captivating soul

–

I am addicted to you

–

You lure me

Fatal beauty

I am craving

Your presence

–

You’re a bittersweet delight

–

You caught me

Unavoidably

Stole my heart

Until it stops

–

I am addicted to you…

Can you handle (all of me)

Can you handle (all of me)
–
Do you
Give up easily?
Or will you
Stand by me
As I drift away
Get lost inside
My mind
Can you
Cope with crazy?
Or will you
Just leave me
When I fight
My battle
To stay sane
Are you
Strong and trustworthy?
Or are you
Scared by obscurity
The darkness
That dwells inside
My soul
Do you
Understand genuinely?
Or did you
Just not see
The broken parts
Obscure melancholy
That is my heart
Do you
Really love me?
Or are you
Attracted to
Paradoxical mystery
Balancing on the edge
Of insanity
Can you
Handle me?
Or will you
Hide anxiously
When you eventually
get to know
All of me…

Come Closer

Come closer

–

Come close

Reach for my hand

Skin against skin

A connection unplanned

But only skin deep

–

Come closer

Touch my mind

Sharing dreams

Two of a kind

Falling deeper within

–

Come closer

Reach for my heart

Emotions set free

In a work of art

Nothing is as it seems

–

Come closest

Touch my soul

Melting together

Make me whole

I want you to know me
