White Umbrella Poem


We met at a park bench
The wind had started blowing
Filling up my nostrils with cool currents
I could feel it caressing my cheeks
Making the hairs at the back of my neck
To stand like they were ready for battle
The park was slowly being abandoned
Leaves of autumn slithering away
Clearing the cabro pavement
The songs of the birds had stopped

Autumn Leaves are Falling Poem


It is already December
I have memories of our times together
You have been on my mind
My thoughts have wondered around our time
lingering on sunny days
Moonless nights to behold
Sandy shores of laughter
I have known happiness
I have felt gladness
In your arms

Secrets Of An Umbrella Poem


I have been your secret love
Sharing stolen kisses with you
Moments that I kept private
Loving all the moments together
The adventure too mind blowing
I wanted to tell the whole world
Scream at the top of my lungs
Embrace you whenever I wanted
I knew you were not free to love
I wanted to believe you were mine

I Remember Poem


We were delicately laced up in each other’s heart
The aroma of pleasant memories lingers on
Seasons together were deliciously wonderful
A timeless love song kept us together
Our future was embedded in an hour glass
How did our love simply melt away?
Who let go of the other’s soul?
I could see the tears in your eyes
Reflected in the glare of the moon
Never wanted to say goodbye

I Ask Poem


Would you
Kiss away the soreness
Could I be your tomorrow?
Can you see my love?
Through every heartache
Inside every sorrow in my life
Will you be able to feel my loneliness?
Should I wait for you?
Would you give me another chance?
Hold me again in your arms

Goodbye To My First Love Poem


To my first love
For making me feel all kinds of emotions
In one heart
All the memories we share
Like a lush green garden
Sparkling deep blue oceans
The vibrant tone of exotic fragrances
Ochre of perfect beaches
Breaking into dunes of the Sahara desert
You were total luxury
Eternal black of an endless night sky
Described your secret sentiments
Always seen in your eyes
A kind passion that I needed
You made our time
A Christmas to remember
A Valentine to cherish
Easter holiday to treasure
Your love gave me serene days
Guiding like a beam of light
In your arms I felt safe
Memories of our love stay forever

Forget Your Past Dear Poem


Searching through the archives of your soul
I found a lost love
One that had been forgotten
Filled with chunks of memories
Pieces of scattered feelings
Sliced to become regrets
It was enough to let go
A heart fragmented and broken
All you knew were droplets of tears
Chunks of loneliness
Lumps that choke your dreams
Now a collection of your history
I now plead with you
Give me a portion of your being
To gather you with both hands
Show you a different love
Pleasantly deep and strong
One that will not ache
I give you every speck of my heart
Strengthening my arms to ask
What will you do for our love?

Endless Road Poem


Missing you is like a death trap
Where I wail into the night
Like a wolf howling at the full moon
At night looking for its mate
This cold season
I do not want to hibernate alone
I don’t want to feel
The warmth of summer alone
Or shield myself under a shed
From the scorching sun
You are the best part of me
These tears for you are ever so golden
Without your misty laugh Iam no one
At least the galaxies say so
I do not want to say goodbye
I cannot say it
It is simply not part of who you are
Or who we will be
Finding you again
Should release this fatal ensnare

Eternal Flame Poem


Your love kept me alive
If I could see you one more moment in time
I would tell you I still I love you
Was scared to love you before
Afraid to reveal my feelings
Hid myself in excuses
Run away from you
No, we cannot say goodbye
You defined the meaning of love
Recollected the thoughts I had forgotten
Reminded me how it felt to be with you
Your goal was to be there for me
The gentleness of your expressions
Gave me life
Ignited a long forgotten flame
Rekindled all the joy
Your kindness made me cry
Times spent together with you
Are my life’s happiest hours
You carefully tended to my heart
Your love kept me safe

Jungle Acapella Poem


I want a memory that lives beneath the skin
Explodes on the lips that are in love
Listening to the sound of the night
Waiting for your love to be alive
I want to hold you close under the rain
And kiss your smile, and to never let go of you
For forgiveness sake
Sing a song for me at the waterfall
I don’t deserve any tears that come from your eyes
Yet I wait amidst this jungle for my groom
Because the pieces of my heart that remain
Are too fragile to be broken again
One day I know my heart will cease from crying
Like native tribes inside deep seated moss filled thick jungles
Beating their drums
Dancing their local songs, chanting in their masks
Ripping the silent air with their ululations and cries
My heart has not yet settled quietly
Acapella music is what made me understand your sense of loving
Sleepless nights caused me to have continuous thoughts of loneliness
I did not see the good in the beauty of a sunrise
Or the magnificence of a sunset
I avoided distractions as I tried to decongest my spirit man that was restless
I needed a prayer for the breakthrough night
When I had to provoke happiness that eluded me
I could still hear the plants breath
The dew granting me access into its immortal beauty
Like time in a split second stand still
The wind brushing past my cold cheeks
Causing my eyes to blink more than once
I feel the jungle Acapella making the hairs on my skin to stand

I Won’t Forget Poem


Sitting in the middle of nowhere
Thinking that
Nothing else matters in life
My life boat is my feelings for you
Feelings so great I shudder
Not being able to hold them alone
Your sweet smile
The wonderful kisses you alone can give
In a desert and in a storm
Thoughts of you give me strength
The will to face everything
I am only sure about our love
A love that tickles my heart
We live for each other

Sitting Behind A Baobab Tree Poem


 
I wait to open a love note that I received from him
A thought crosses my mind
Should I doubt the words written so eloquently?
Speaking in a silent mode with no regrets
Revealing the real longing to see you again
My back resting on the brown bark of this baobab tree
Every curve felt through cotton apparels
Seeping through the heart of a very disturbed psyche
Here and now is where I want to be
Loving faithfully
Your letter reads into my thoughts
The very heart that I know belong to me alone
There in your eyes I see you more than I can tell you
Each day means one day with you as I wait
As deep as the roots of this tree are so are mine in your being
I crave to be one with you as your love creates music
I promise never to let another sit under the shade of this tree
Or touch the green leaves that bring a new day
Dusk will find me here waiting for arms that become strong for me
Asleep on my bed I will wait for dawn when it is darkest
I want to see your beaming face near mine
Is it everything you wanted? Our love? Our smile?
I will not wave goodbye until I meet you again under our tree

Do Not Forget Poem


I remember
When our arms never left each other
Our lips never stopped touching
Our hearts could not stop beating
When nights by the fireside
Were filled with romance
When the love songs tickled us
Each whisper trickled with honesty
Dripping with a sense of longing
Do you remember?
The times we laughed uncontrollably
Loved like there was no tomorrow
Forgave without a second glance
When we played in the rain
Holding onto each other
Because there was nowhere else to be
Or nothing else to do
Except in each other’s arms
We both remember
Every loving moment we shared
Being inspired to greatness by our affections
Dancing to our own kind of music
Remind me never to forget

Distant Whisper Poem


Whatever love is
It only got better when I was with you
Knowing you will be there
Made all the difference
I only thought of you as breaking my heart
Learning to love you I did
Every part of you is still in my heart
When there is nobody else
You remain till the sun comes up
Whatever affection you give
Keeps drowning me deeper in your love
I once almost tripped and fell
Fell in love with you
So I let myself fall and trip into you
Being with you is a habit I cannot break
Don’t want to break it
I know when I do...
I lose you for good
You become a distant whisper

Aware Of Your Absence Poem


You do things to my heart
My mind cannot explain
Nor the soul comprehend
I look into your eyes and see love
Without you
Nothing in the world makes sense
Incompleteness spells out my loneliness
There are simply no peaceful nights
Days become silent, filled with misery
Know your passion keeps me alive
A desire to hold you keeps my feelings intact
Clutching at your presence
Until I cannot breathe again
I do not know if what I am feeling is love
All I know is I cannot forget you
Your sweetness makes me yours
Because you are everything in my life
I cannot start over again
I am feeling all this because of love
Defining the truth about us is easy
It is the beginning of a beautiful story

Alone Once Again Poem


Dreaming about you
Not the same as holding you
My arms wrapped around the pillow
In tears for your loss
Strong enough to let you go
Weak enough to give you another chance
Thinking about you
Missing your powerful essence
All the reservoirs of love
Squeezed out of life
Left out in the scorching sun
Wishing to see you
Until it hurts
Lost in the dark without you
Burning the duvet with pain
Head buried deep in the covers
Could I fall asleep without you?
Should I dare close my eyes?
Surrounded by loneliness?

Memories Of You Poem



As the rain drops down my window
So do my tears for you
Remembering the times I was with you
Never worried about anything
Safe in your arms
Your graceful smile so sweet it could kill
Together we overcame anything
One time I was in your tender embrace
Not knowing it would not last
Now that you are gone
Who will hold me?
I do not want to be the unwanted one
I realise I cannot forget you
Each bubble of air reminds me of your closeness
When I am lonely it feels okay to cry
You were never to leave my heart
Around you I knew bliss
Now it is a forgotten grip of reality
You were everything I ever wanted
Now the memories in my heart are fading away

Missing Your Presence Poem



The days end in a blur as I try to leave the memories behind
Your arms pulling me back to you, blaming the age old fault of the heart
Knowing only lies try to convince me
We know who won in this fight called love
Trying to keep all the jealousy away I can’t help but twinge with pain
Swallow myself with what I know is so right
Crying within myself under your shadow
I do not understand whether we chose to break the vows we made at the stream
“I promise I will try not to break your heart”
The words now so shallow
Yet still resounding in my ears that cannot lock away the hurt
Like crystal clear waves in the open ocean
My heart thunders away all night long
Storms of misfortunes tell the tales of loneliness
When will it be over to calm the rage? A deep solitude can only make me forget
The few hours I try not to fall asleep, dreams of you always keep me awake
Sleeplessness crown the glory of midnight
3am I glimpse at the early morning signs
A sunrise without your strong presence, the days, longer than the centuries
Musky smells of a long forgotten love that turns the world into a deep gloom
I knew what it was no other person could give you
Life never was treacherous to you and me
Wearing the soul of a wounded love
In my arms that seem to fall apart on their own
A soft kiss of the morning dew, a lovely smell of the lavender magic
Creeps up the hairs on the back of my hand
Making all my senses cry out for your embrace
Your absence is not enough for me to let you go
Now that the words have said my heart’s truth
A smile spreads across my face as I lie down
Knowing my heart, soul and body are to be fine

Please Dance With Me Poem



I implore you
Dance with me tonight
I need to feel your rhythm flow through me
The swaying of emotions
Movement of my feelings towards you
Holding onto the beats of your heart
To breathe you again
As my head rests on your neck
Arms around your shoulder
Surrounding me protectively
Close your eyes and re-live your memories
Surrender into this Heavenly kiss
Remember how wonderful
This love feels when together
If I were to thank you with a kiss and a hug
You know I would make it perfect
Linger in the music we sing together
Touching on every feathery feeling
Soaring like birds over the ocean
Do not give up our love
