Emotions
Are but peepholes,
For people
To explore,
Turmoil
In their souls…
Should you ask
Me to explain
I’d beg to abstain,
As to further elaborate
Would only discombobulate!

Time abandons
Who I am,
As so will yesterday
Find fade away,
While I compose
Thus but to hold,
Each ebbing day
To last beyond
A memory pared,
Of musings layered
In distant yesteryears!
Held a first kiss
None like before,
Reminds me now
Be joy of bliss,
Meant ever more
Time fashioned life,
For days like this!
I nigh recall
When but a tot,
Days mostly all
Be without end,
Thus no part plot
Then to be fed,
But chosen dishes
Hence composed
Held daily doze
Of youthful wishes…
Yet growing up
Had not foretold,
Days made face
Life want remould,
As child burns
To aging bold,
That soon exacts
Its weighty toll,
For growing old
Bids less recall,
Of days we’d tasted all!
The road to reach
A place alleged freedom,
And alas may cause miss
This yet moot hypothesis!
I’ve known smiles
That go the mile,
Others borrowed
But for the while,
In veiled disguise
To cover sorrow
Hid in dim mazes,
Till one morrow
In all its fazes
The sadness dies,
And you can feel
A smile appease
Akin to a caress,
Behind a smile
Reaching to please!
Another road
Wants but persuade
Leads to paradise,
But not till there
You’d realize,
It falsely bades
To road disguised,
That serves to hide
Its likely path be hell,
While ataraxia you seek
Is where you now reside,
Thus so implies
Need not a road to bide!
In my intent,
And high purpose
Of objectives,
Tho often I fail reach
Dedication I so seek,
That which heighten
My pursuits
To avoid mediocrity,
Ever poised to posture
Over looming insufficiency…
Words of import
Meritorious as I must,
Apposed in a fashion
To inspire interaction,
Being perfect my resolve,
Like a more inspired fellow
May find in imperfection!
Cross my heart
And hope to live,
Long enough
That I may give,
Recognition
To those known
For helpful deeds,
Who give far more
Than they have sown,
Cross my heart
And hope to share,
All I possess
The while I’m there!
Buried neath
A sad façade,
Cloaked in layers,
Of ambiguity…
Masked in aura
Of mystique,
Who would see
Sorrow so bleak,
Wouldst by design
