Thank you for the sounds

With earphones plugged in my ear. "Words can't bring me down." I walk home happily in my 6 inched heels. "Click clack Click clack." Passing by trees that gossiped with the wind. "Shhhhhh, shhhh." Cars made fun of the rate of my saunter. "Vrooom, beep beep." People demanded each other's attention. "Hey, the other day.." Dogs and cats glared at the foreign faces. "Meow, Grrr, RuffRuff." Winter embraced my naked features. "Whoooo, woooo." Bells of the lobby rung upon my arrival. "Drrinnggg." The radio informed me the weather. " to bring a jacket..." A playful scream escaped the second floor. "AhhhHHhH!" The air conditioner in my room whispered. "Mmm m mMm." Mother entered and turned off all the lights. "tik, tik, tik." My blanket breathes over me familiarly. "Huuuaite."                   "Thank you for the sounds."  To life I recite.

I dream a little room

I dream a cozy little room, With dim lights adjacent to the bed. Roses spilled around the sheets, A cloudy blue wall paint overhead. I dream a flat screen TV, Inside the little room of ours. Synthetic latex soft mattress, Where we lay for hours and hours. I dream your hand over my waist, Your eyes looking at mine, Warmth between two bodies, Heated by a bottle of red wine. I dream a safe little room, Somewhere they won't find you and me, There's no need to run or worry, In this room, we're trapped but free.

Valentines day 2012.

The other day I was hearing her spit rhymes, Since today is Valentines and I thought I'd take up this challenge, To see if I am ready for this climb -  I don't have a complex struggling life.  Not a life and death story to tell.  No one ever tried shooting a knife, at me. I got haters but they ain't messing if they shouldn't be.  Still I do think I have all the rights To wonder how everyone is celebrating, On this arbitrary day we wait or hate for - "My one and only" or "Forever alone."  They be telling me in continuous repetition. Over the phone or just in person. Love is optional and if you're lucky it's a bonus. "Sometimes it lasts in love sometimes it hurts instead." Listen carefully to what singer Adele said. Though love is like a fluctuating stock market, People keep investing as it's exciting and worth the risk- Like when you buy a new unheard CD disc. If one day you ask, "Is being in love stupid"  I'd s...

I am witness to the brokenhearted

I am witness to the brokenhearted, And I fail to understand why. Is it really so hard to resist? When other temptations walk by. I am witness to the brokenhearted, And I question love's endurance. Time doesn't help strengthen it, Roads turn steep and treacherous. I am witness to the brokenhearted, And I challenge love's trust. When things do come to an end, How long does it take to adjust?

Time, the merciless friend

Each time I'm back I see a different face. Her body is fading out with time, And it's a hard thing to embrace. She's seen me since the age of zero, Always there to hold my tiny hands. Just like any child would, I call her my 'hero.' There's not much time left ticking, Time is a merciless friend. She sleeps, and time keeps slipping- Away from her, and I know she knows, She accepts this cruel reality, She wouldn't mind to go. Old age- a heavy, monotonous burden Mother nature is beautiful yet cruel, She awaits the final curtain in silence, With nothing left uncertain.

Will you?

Will you quit? Will you not find this too tough? Will you eventually give us up? Will you say: 'I've had enough." Will you not find it too overwhelming? Will you not be too pressured? Will you still be on standby to fight for me? Will you see the value of us can't be measured? Will you really wait? Will you prove to love me? Will you promise to stay strong? Will you give me comfort and security? Will you do more than say "I love you."? Will you strive to save my sudden sad days? Will you be ready to stand there with open arms? Will you be willing to show me the way? Will you keep me as your precious? Will you cherish our memories? Will you read my letters over and over? Will you keep them as your treasuries? Will you?

Somewhere over the rainbow.

They say somewhere over the rainbow blue birds fly, But there is more unheard to that. Lurking somewhere over the rainbow, the black beauty gives life to the meadows. There's cotton candy made from clouds, and you may fly by the wings of a condor. Swings that attach to the rainbow sways 180 degrees, it's safe to fall off a place that defies all gravity. And there you find the wizard of Oz, Generously he instills you wisdom. You can ride on Aslan like Little Lucy did, Touring each corner of his kingdom. Suddenly sunsets lasts double the hour, Witness the beaches on high tide. The majesty's work on an eternal canvas, Paints each land and ocean's divides.
