Oma

Oma.
Do not be surprised
When I put flowers
On each strand of your hair.
To let you know how special
You've been to me.

Oma
Don't be surprised when
I burn my laughter in your eyes.
For that's how you make me feel

Like a Phoenix I rise
From the ashes of your smile
Shining with splendour
Like a demi-god dwelling
In the midst of men.

Because life is a field
Designed with storms.
I gain strength in the courage
You concoct with precision.
Giving me the correct doses
To keep me spurring on.

You are beauty designed
On the shores of dreams.
You make me see reasons
To keep on loving my scars

You are the diamond cherished
Among stars.
The feline inspiration I draw
On the board of my imaginations.
And with your fluffy smile.
You've dusted many sadness away.

Oma
Don't be surprised when I kiss
Your heart and say to it.
You are the most beautiful being I know
Because it's the truth.
And Lord knows it too.

So, to your beauty, grace and poise.
I would hinge my blessings upon
Their tenderness.
And keep on walking within the embers
Of their glory.

Muted Conversation IX

Tonight i would stay awake and think about how we eloped into mysteries. You came in and stuffed my mind with effervescent chemistry. I couldn't breathe. All i knew was, i wanted to strip you naked and disvirgin your imagination with words borne from a heart yearning for intimacy. But i was dumb... silence gagged me like a prisoner tortured by the snares of grief. All i could see was temptation staring at me in stern disbelief. "Do something" my alter ego would say. But all i could do was take my mind on a erotic spree to love's garden. I would take your hands and slowly caress them light and thin. Hypnotizing my senses into the pores of your skin. I wanted you to feel what i feel. I wanted to dissolve into your memories and hack them with images of me. I wanted to wet the appetite between your thighs with testimonies of godliness and raw passion. I wanted to perform the ceremony of consummation. I would look at you and break into a smile governed by naughty ideas and...

Sunbeams

The sun beams its rays of light Into an eerie fog of darkness. Paving way for joy to dance its way Into the shadows of night. Surreal silence then decides to prey On this joy, transforming it to fear. The fog then morphs into faces of demons. Dining in a feast of fright. The sun beams again to disrupt the darkness And chaos sets in. The mind of joy enlivens into straws of hope. Standing in a congregation singing. "Rays of joy...rays of spoil. Shine with colors that destroy. Rays of joy, come restore. Beams of hope and faith employ To a heart so frail and thin And a mind, timid and weak Shine with grace so strong and heal Open wounds and age long scars" The sun beams now rays of hope. Forming a rainbow in a desert of whispers. Reality becomes a dream. Blistering fantasies into the winds. Then suddenly i wake into shards of loneliness Beaten by the fray of a long lost bond. The sun beams onto my face As i look out to the window Staring at nothing. H...

DREAMS

I Dreams flutter around my head.. As i sit down, eating beans and bread.. Dancing in my mind are mangled hopes. Entwined like a labyrinth of many ropes.. Fighting against the wiles of profanity.. The mind wanders through the plains of Sagacity.. Trained like a monk, to show no pain.. The soul becomes undaunted, in the midst of rain.. Zeal becomes the madman who, In his quest for knowledge, becomes the fool.. Who acts irrational, hated by them.. Who lack discipline, and courage to stand firm.. But through it all, dreams will live on.. Even in the shadows of a dying sun.. For by it, memories still will remain.. In the remnants of time, for they, who lived not in vain.. II There is a garden in the city of the mind.. Where dreams were sown, nurtured and grown.. The farmer was a different unique kind.. With the wisdom to discern the seeming unknown.. With an understanding of the times and seasons.. He made sure no crop withered or died.. He lived in the hut of logical rea...
