Poem 1
Upon touching the surface-
All I see is a beautiful piece of a rose flower
Not minding how low I have moved or even lower
I still see you as clear as the mirror
It’s still not as clear as crystal in water
That I will get to see you maybe like a potter
All I do is to see the stars even in my locker
Wondering where to get you from you my owner
I sit down and ask, why do I have to suffer
My heart anguishing in pain
Sitting and meditating in a mask,
I still have hope that one day at dusk; will have to see you if not at dawn
Love is sometimes quite mysterious, but we need to remain as tough
Though sometimes so tedious, in our hears like unwanted puff
Yes I try to stay so calm in wake of tough heart conditions
I will try to always be so dear, even when exactly you can’t hear
It’s all encouraging to see, that you are so alive and kicking
Despite that you are far at the sea, yet am at the land all alone
Scary as it may seem without you, at the palm of my lonely hands
Just pose and think too, if I am making sense in my thinking and missing you
It’s a bitter sweet at this moment a feeling
Like someone resting yet undergoing drilling
Perhaps am doing some self grilling
Not to fathom how and when I got it wrong to you.
