For You...

Some nights when I'm all alone,

I wish you were here with me.

Honey, just hearing your voice on the phone,

Lets me know everything is as fine as can be.

If I could give you the world today,

Or climb over mountains just to hear you say,

"All I want is you, come what may";

Verily, even if the sun doesn't shine, you'll still be my ray.

Never will I regret loving you.

Even if the road gets rough,

You'll always be the one for me, it's true.

Oh, if I can make you laugh

Until you forget your pain or past, there's nothing I wouldn't do...

Hidden...

Seems like a few years ago,

Everything around me changed forever.

All I can remember was seeing you and just know,

You are all I'll need in my life, ever.

I have made mistakes along the way,

So let me just say,

How sorry I am to you,

I am also afraid of losing you too.

And let me just say as God is my witness above,

Never will I let you go or not feel my love...

WIth Love...

I have not said much

Nor will I say more.

For words can't describe as such,

Aunt Meng, the aunt I adore.

Where do I start, where do we start?

No words can describe, nor say,

The love she held in her heart

Or the emptiness felt today.

Lovable, fair, huggable and hungry

Are some words that come to mind.

But, mostly, I remember her vividly

By her joie de vivre and a soul so kind.

Rain shall mask my tears

And wash with it, fears.

Knowing a new angel is born above

And is watching over us with love...

Life's Nostalgia...

Not wanting to wake,

But still opening my eyes.

Greeting me were chirping, tweeting birds and a lake,

Greeting back were my yawns and sighs.

All around me, brown leaves are dancing

Their last waltz, tango; their last pirouette.

Alas, how cruel, fate and time are ever advancing,

Stopping abruptly when the number's up, like a game of roulette.

Now, as I look around, older and humble,

Consternation shall be mine companion and friend.

For it was this foolish boy who thought life was a rumble,

And if not for you, that would have been his thought to the very end.

Yes, you have shown me a side untold.

Who knew a love from a schoolboy could be so bold?

You took a world so blisteringly cold,

You made me happy and warm in your loving hold.

Now, I'm old and wrinkled;

Like aged paper, worn, torn and crinkled.

I look around from my old oak tree once more,

To the world I knew so well before,

Before closing my eyes forevermore...

My Words...

Take my hand,

I'll hold you tight.

Let's go to a distant land,

Everything'll be alright.

We'll walk by the beach

On a starry night.

We'll cuddle in each other's reach

While your beauty glows in the moon's innocent light.

Thank you, for loving me.

Before this I was afraid, you see.

Because of wounds, so deep,

I could barely sleep.

Now, you've come along

Like the sweet chorus to a cynical song.

You've brought a life, once forlorn,

From a man once dead, now reborn.

"Thank you" can never be words enough,

To describe my feelings for you though.

I know it may seem all too sudden and what not

For others to see us talking about tying the knot.

But I really can't picture my life,

Without you,

Without you as my wife

I really can't live, it's true.

So, I guess what I want to say is,

I love you,

And I never want to be without you.

Because, from now on, you're my only bliss.

Princess and the Toad...

Have you ever had a dream about your future,

About the perfect girl you'd ask to be your wife,

To raise a family and cuddle with on the furniture,

To grow old and live with the rest of your life?

There's this girl that I just met.

It's crazy but she makes me forget

The choking sadness I've hid all this time

And makes me wanna paint her beauty in every rhyme.

She doesn't think she's hot

Nor does she know the hook she's got

On my heart and I pray not,

That she leaves me to rot.

Her eyes sing to me a song

Of love, once denied.

Though it may be long

I hope, from our love, she won't hide.

We share a common goal

Of one day having our own shoal.

Boys in the backyard playing ball

She'll teach our daughter to bake and all.

She's shown me that God has his plans,

And while I ain't one of his bigger fans,

I'm so grateful he's shown me this road.

For, in this fairytale, she my princess and I'm the toad.

A Poem Of Dismay...

Rise, my fallen
Your vengence shall be gotten
For the vicissitudes of fate
Has crippled democracy on this date.

Voice your displeasure,
Vacate their premise,
Validate your anger at this censure
And we shall march on to their demise.

Come, my friends,
Come, my people,
Come, my countrymen, to the ends
And let's see their reign cripple.

From the shores we shall sing,
From the valleys we shall ring,
From the hills we shall bring,
Change to a country thus deserving.

Let not the vox populi be vanquished,
Let this betrayal be our votive for revolution,
To end the venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and
vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition.

Let not our suffering be in vain
Let not our strength wane,
Let not our passions tame
But, most importantly, let us not be oppressed like a lame.
