Retreat

Days had passed

Regrets took its chance

Tears are in my eyes

But there’s no second chance

I’d stop for a while

There’s no reason to cry

I know I’ve failed

Now, I’d be brave

I’m through with mistakes

It’s not too late –

To change for the better

In the end I’m not a loser

I will go on

I’d take whatever season

I’d hold on tight

Keep right in all might

God, I know, is there

To give His love and care

And I’ll walk in the light

Forever in His sight.

The Beauty of Love

I see myself dancing and twisting and turning

Like a ballerina in a magical box

In the colors of the rainbow, I see myself playing

And in a mirror of pure roses and scents

Then I’ve waited what would happen-

Because in your eyes I see  the beauty of love.

 

I hear myself singing and shouting and cheering

The joys of heart could be this close

In a melody of a song, I hear myself humming

And the notes and the chords altogether have knotted

Then again I’ve waited what would happen-

Because in your laughter I hear the beauty of love.

Imagination

When our eyes met

Chill got through my neck

He smiled at me

My friends didn’t see

I smiled back

No walls to block

When he came near

I felt so thrilled

He’s simply gorgeous

My heart’s amused

He asked my name

Oh, I’m still sane

We’ve got acquainted

I almost fainted

Rats double-flocked

In my heart, rub-a-dub

He holds my hand

Shame with my cold palm

He suddenly whispered

“Could you be mine, dear?”

Sounds so sincere

A song to my ear

Speechless at the moment

I just nod my head

Just right after

He came much nearer

He enclosed me in his arms

I totally fell in his charms!

'Ninety-Five.. Bang!

I messed the exams

I’ve never been serious

Everything’s done

And I’m delirious… Bang!

 

Lost times  with friends

I got to make-up

Still time don’t let me

And I’m all cracked up… Bang!

 

It’s me and you

Halfway being friends

Halfway being foes

Worse, I fell-in-love with you… Bang!

This Goes To.. Peter Pan!

Another night has come

And I got the  same old wish:

That you’d drop by our house

And be my friend, please!

 

I’ll leave my window open

So when you thought of dropping by

You’ll feel the warmth and welcome-

Of a sincere heart, no lies!

 

When you arrived and you invited me-

To come home with you

With just one happy thought

I’d be flying, too!

 

I won’t  be afraid of Captain Hook

Nor get jealous with Tink

‘coz with you I feel secured

And I won’t take a wink!

 

I’m ready for the pirates

I’m ready for the life

Though it’s different from the real one-

Just take me to your world!

20

A couple of decade had passed

And I’m standing here at  last

But I need second chances back

Back there when mistakes seemed much!

 

I’m standing before the future

I’m standing after the past

I’m caught between the middle

Now, I believed, life’s a riddle!

 

There’s a dozen of tasks ahead

My feasibility’s still undone

Nothing’s running thru my head

All good ideas were gone!

 

A double of ten one’s

A number greater than before

It’s better to just wait for the sun

Than worry ‘bout this even  more!

 

My crossroad’s still yet to come

And there’s a lot for me to be done

But acceptance need not rest upon a shelf:

“I’m twenty,” I whispered to myself.

 

 

October ’95

Goodbye

A touch of love that seemed to last forever

But destined to end in a glimpse of time

In thy lover’s eyes, there is doubt and confusion

Looking towards a tomorrow that would never come.

 

Hearts are grieving, souls weeping loud

Through the silhouettes of darkness, light cannot be found

Time to loosen both clasped hands

Time to let go, time to say goodbye.

 

Promises said have been broken now

Forever doesn’t even start, then it’s time to part

The love within could be so right

But time along speaks of all wrongs.

 

I love you, you love me

Words are not enough to tell where we will be

Pangs of love would be there not just once

We must both let go and say the word goodbye.
