The First Encounter

I am not Emily, and
Death is no longer a friend.
I saw his face,
And it left me riven.

He betrays life and
Rips love apart.
He cuts my eyes and
Bruises my heart.

His proudest eyes boast
Man's despair.
His soulless heart
Is all but fair.

His callous hands
do naught but scythe.
No man dares fight
Against his might.

I shut my eyes
trying to keep,
each strand of life
he did unweave.

Life

Life is a cage, a safe place, yet it confines you.

A Plane Ride

‘Brought a friend?’ I guessed

was your way of saying hi

I smiled and let you go inside.

20A was your seat,

20B was mine.

Your bright brown eyes

Invited me to talk.

Seated side by side

Our minds went

For a little walk.

You told me a secret about LA,

California. Laughing, I face-palmed

at what I did hear.

In turn, with you,

I shared my greatest fear.

Hours went by.

The lights were out.

Others slumbered uncomfortably

But we were kept awake

By our aesthetic chemistry.

Because of you,

I had the best flight.

I like how we connect artistically,

How you stole my unlit night

painting it, instead, bright.

I am glad that we at all met.

And together embarked on our

Imaginary private jet.

You owe me a CBR ride, Twin B.

Don’t you ever forget. :)

Reasons

You want to love me greatly,

but you failed

For it’s nothing of my desire

To have my heart

by your head prevailed.

I am, by that kind of love,

uninspired.

Your love is too smart,

carved out of your sharp reasoning

its too complicated for my

slow, stupid heart.

I find your kind of love,

boring.

I only know of love

beautified by ardent passion.

I want not a majestic ruler,

but a sweet life companion.

You possess not what

my soul aspires.

Fold up your logical love, and leave

for my heart nor my soul

will you ever receive.

Why I Write

No words could utter the feeling i feel,
I'm happier in my dreams
It feels right. It feels real.
Reality dims my days.
I work mechanically,
I cry my nights away.

The presence of you lies in my memory,
outshone by this merciless reality.
Alone here, I am frozen
Waiting to be melted by
Your warm embrace,
Wanting this pain forgotten.

I write because that's all I can do,
When waiting hurts too much,
When I need nothing,
But you.

Apart

What is worse than two loves
being apart ?
Some say a lonely heart.
I'm not quite sure if that is true,
Because the pain tortures me
More cruelly than before I met you.

Good memories are now cut in half
The look from your eyes,
Your sweet smile, your laugh.
They make me cry, beg and pray
That time will run and stop
Taking you away.

My presence fades
My heart,weary
Tears streaming
Down the screen, kissing
My Baby.

"I miss you too," your voice comes
Through the speaker.
"and I wish also this wait will be
Soon over" I know I can
And I'll be stronger.
Because you're worth the wait
And for you nothing will ever be
Too late.

Falling Autumn

Autumn.
Ash gray sky
Birds crying.
Trees lost love
to live, trying.

I am an autumn tree
losing parts of me
fading them, bleaching them
trying to stay healthy.

Some think its stunning
i change my own color
or let go of my selves
building romantic scenes
for new lovers.

So little did they know
the true story of Fall
they never care enough to listen
oh no,
not at all.
