Remember You

Remember you

Remember me

Seems like an ongoing thing

Waking up

never forgetting

Love pounding

Within my soul 

No slavery, no chains

till it explodes

Love climbing

Never reaching

Seems like a burden

then I think its of love

Love is indefinite

Like God's love 

or so I think

unfathomable

omnipresent

all encompassing

unconditional

ever persistent

never let you down

always uplifting

always empathetic

always showing

indestructible

forgiving

Remember you

Forget me not

A touch of love

goes far

I have lost my soul

I deserve the feeling of loss daily........

Without love

Where would I go

Where should I sit

What should I drink

What should I wear today.

Remember You

Remember Me

Suns coming down

All this days

but a memory.

Things Got A Little Complicated

it was the storm
that took us off guard
all things we couldn't  handle
we just lit the candle
when things got a little dark

it was the violence
that took me straight to you
knowing that under your wings
I find refuge
the stars twisted and shout
the mountains trembled
in fear of what may come
universe unfolded then expanded
but it had nothing to do with us

Ugh

Lost my thought...

Always

Always

You are always on my mind

Even before I met you

As our generations passes by

I find my soul searching for you,

Here we are in love today

Though I have been in love before

It was a time another face

We have met sometime before

The light shines upon my heart

It feels pure and unconditional

The Divine has left me loose

In the wilderness to find you

You are always on my mind

Over and over finding you

When you fall I will rise

and run to capture you

You are always on my mind

Lives without love is not how I do

Years and Seasons falling in love

everyday by the sound of your voice.

I thought of myself having a disease

At times hearts so heavy

Just thinking a life without you

Where can I go, what can I do?

When the earth spins in reverse

out into oblivion among the stars

You will always be in my heart

I will always find you.

Love you, Babe

The Stronger Weapon Is

so its easier to love yourself
difficult to love someone else
the stronger weapon
is forgiveness

so its easier to fall in love
and tear it apart like a good bacon
the stronger weapon
is patience

hold out to know the truth
hold out and believe in you
take in and swallow my pride
everyday trampled and hide

so its easier to walk away in silence
to let go good memories
the stronger weapon
is steadfastness

in the same room
sharing the same air
thousands of miles away
sharing the same couch
watching you, fingers fidgeting
looking away, as I find myself.

i am a poet without rhyme and reason
seeing a season tipping his hat
once again... I am born again.
a better person walking away
waiting for love.

the stronger weapon
is love.

i loved you more than words can describe

my perception of the world had changed.
the mountains were higher and more magnificent
the ocean seemed boundless
the sky seemed limitless
time seemed endless

the stronger weapon
is...

it was easier for me to let go, despite how deep is my love.
it was easier for me to hang on, despite how deep my pain.

for all the things I so loved, I also hated.
sorry for being so complicated........

No Walls

day by day
moment by moment
my walls become no walls at all.
sky blue and white clouds
tall buildings and lamp posts
big problems are not so big at all.

what seems big is so small
I can finally skip over
like we skip over a puddle of water.
could it be because of love?

found myself fighting a little longer
walking farther
climbing higher
drawing much more
editing photos better
becoming smarter
feeling wiser
I feel unlimited.

could this be love?

I think I am trusting again.
at this moment healing
even when I don't feel well.
at this moment healing
a dishonest answer from anyone
and an evil eye can't stop the flow.

I drew a red brick wall and I tore the sheet apart....

Thank you God, Robert, Friends, Family.

The Woman and The Bear

I had a dream...

I was walking in a corridor of high walls and ceilings
A voice led me to a wall, which opened and revealed
A woman with long red flowing hair
and she had an unrecognizable crystal face.

I was amazed at her beauty
purple robe,
chestnut wood panel walls
and ceilings

She lifted her hand and pointed
her finger behind me.
There stood a tall female bear
twice the height of me
gold and jewels over her head
Teeth glowing white
in her royal attire
full of power and strength....

I was lost with words
also trembling in fear
She was not friendly to me.

I was subconsciously self reflecting.

Who are you?

God of symbols and dreams?
A Friend from the past?
The Sun or The Moon?

Does it matter?

I am sharing my darkness to
anyone who listens..

Where do I go from here?

Who Are You?

Seems like its raining everyday
in every way
good intentions
and voices in my head
so I asked...
Who are you?

Seems like the clouds
rule the skies
because I am waiting
because I am undecided.

Voices from the edge of my bed
and from the stars
and in my dreams
and in the words of friends
and from strangers
and from the fallen leaves
in a summer's day.

No one knew I was listening
to keys and strokes
to signs and visions

so I asked...
Who are you?

Oh' God
My friend..

Who are you?

I came here to live
and I am not leaving here
so I can die.

Heavy rain on my skin
sun scorched
peel back and away
tear and bleed

I pray facing the sun
on the cloudiest and rainy days
some how, its rays penetrate
through the clouds and into my soul.

Who are you?

Why do you love me?

I am not worthy.
