Just one night

Just one night
Just one kiss
A night of bliss

Just to get a chance to kiss your tender lips

I wish I could touch your face softly with my finger tips
Slowly brush my finger tips across your lips

A lingering kiss

A warm embrace a...

He’s my peace

With him I’m free
He understands me
With him I can be me
He accepts me for who I am

He’s my friend
He’s my confidant
He knows what no one else knows

He’s kind
For me, He’s just right

In his eyes I’m like a piece of intricate art

MIND

I do not sleep because I do not care about dreaming. This life is an open book, and I am the writer and the painter of the pictures I care to read and see. Am I going mad? Is this a message of my reality

What path must I follow when my eyes...

Rising Above

In the face of the tempest's rage,
I stood firm, I did engage.
Though fierce winds sought to overwhelm,
I refused to let despair helm.

Gathering strength, I held my ground,
Against the storm, I stood unbound.
Pushing through the darkest...

I returned them to their mothers.

I returned them to their mothers.

On the way of my school
there was a marshy land.
When I returned from there,
I observed jelly dirts on the isolated pond.

On the banks of the wet land,
the hedges grew up.
On the surface of water,
water...

I get what I deserve

I get what I deserve
If I give respect
To others
I will get respect
From others
If i mistreat people
The people will leave you
And you will lose them also
They broke the friendship
I was not happy
Now slowly I am
Making some friends

The Love of a Mother

A few clouds rolled in,
dark on the horizon.
But I wasn’t scared,
because you light up my life.
You are my sun,
shining brightly.
You drive the clouds away
and bring joy and warmth
to the sadness and cold.
Even in darkness,
you...

The Love of a Grandmother

This little heart of mine loves you
more with each day passing.
I’m overflowing with joy;
I cannot possibly contain
the sheer amount of love
I have for you.
Your hugs are the best,
your smile is the brightest,
and your laugh is the...

Effective Listening

Effectively listening.
With undivided attention given.
Is effective for comprehending.
Understanding.
And communicating.
Sharing
Being understood.
Effectively.
Exchanging conversation.
Learning to listen.
Without distracting to interrupt.

Only If She Was Mine

time i see them im drowning in despise,
she makes me want to cry,
her eyes tell their own stories,
ones i know aren’t lies,
the way she looks at him,
will never be the same as mine,
i don’t understand...

I Burn For You

I was burning while you came blaming me for the smell of ashes,
blind to see you were holding the box of matches,
I was burning when you first laid your hands on me, tears filling my eyes,
as yours are unrecognizable,
I am struggling to break...

SALTY STONES

A balding lump on the top of his head - an intermediate figure that looks like Nobody's; he is still waiting for the blood-red dragon-Sunset, to see if he will send the welcoming silver stars to him. He got the Tooth of Time as artificial teeth,...
