I am nature
The earth/crowd
A natural phenomenon
The difference (I)
The difference (II)
Don't be afraid
Falling in love
The Insatiable
My thoughts
The solitary queen

I AM NATURE.

The cloud is blue today
the day looks so gay
children are frowning
some thing will soon happen.

I am nature.

I look not man on the face.
The children love me dearly
yet they are afraid of me
I am touturing and burning.

I am nature.

My appearance is glimmy.
My flames are burning.
Water canot cool me down.
I am everlasting flame.

I am the SUN.

THE EARTH/CROWD

The earth is where light follow
and dark follow light.
But this earth is inhuman.
It did not care about people.
But people care about the earth.
This big earthlike a ball
kept on its own way.
People died and it kept on.
People feel heart broken and it still get on.
The earth behaves like the crowd.

Always it was so,
people will be hurt,
some will go to jail,
yet the crowd will be there.
The same crowd of nameless people.
May be the crowd never died.
Because it so, from the beginning of the earth.
The earth did not seems to know if human exist or not.
Its that nothing really affect the crowd?
The crowd and earth have no feelings for human,
yet one cannot do without living on earth.

A NATURAL PHENOMENON

Love is a natural thing
this love made one a natural being.
A natural being has been crazy
about this phenomenon.

There is a great involvement.
In this phenomenon.
Another disease
a name given so correctly
love as a sickness eat into ones heart
and it affect deeply when one is hurt.
And the feelings affected.
Yet one is not careful
when this love is concern.
Another madness
one did not realize unless treated.
Love, another blindness................
it blinds the mine eyes
one don’t reason correctly.

Love...... why not reveal your self
are you a mystery?
If one should question love
then you have to question nature
because its a natural phenomenon.

THE DIFFERENCE (I)

The difference is love,
love always love, when you are loved and its returned.
Your world turned a better place.
Because you are loved.

The difference is when she saw warmth and love in her love's eyes,
she felt happy, every thing else was forgotten
because he was close to her,
it dose not matter if she had hurt her in the past,
the presence was all that mattered.
Not yesterday and the things of yesterday.

The difference is life seems good,
when he tell her how beautifully she looks.
Words was needless.
Silence and peace around them was welcome.
Because only that which was real
and the two people in love.
When he smile to her, there is gaiety and lightness in her voice,
and there is joy every where because she is loved.

THE DIFFERENCE (II)

The difference is when you realized
that your love is gone
she tried to think but it is impossible.
All that is in her mind is that, her love is gone.
Her love is gone, is the only thing that is real
she walked without knowing where she went
only to walk, like a million brainless soulless woman
only she want to be lost in the rhythm of motion.
The difference is to love a man who loves another.
Time stop moving and its painful,
more painful than to love some one who loves you and leaves you.
You look at him and see the light in his eyes for the other woman.

AND YOU YOUR HEART BLEEDS.

You lie down to sleep and you are alone,
and it seems no one wants you.
And think, they are together
This hurts so much that sleeps will not come,
Day after day, its pains all the time.

DON'T BE AFRAID.

Fears pulls,
What ever you fear the most.

Winds up getting you.

Don't be scared,
if you are, don't show it.

To your opinion,
other wise it will be use against you,
because it make your opinion strong.

If you are scared,
don't allow it make you loose any sleep.

Put the thought of pains right out of your mind.

Because into a soul absolutely free from thoughts and emotion/fears

Even a tiger finds no room to insert its fierce claws.

So don't give room for FEARS.

FALLING IN LOVE.

Fall in love and fine out the Experience,
it's like making Love
with some one you had known
all your Life.

It's like some one who complemented you perfectly
In every way.
And you feel like been with some one who knew
All your wants and needs and
Understood, because you are in love.

When you fall in love,
It's like lovers who have been together
For a length of Time and share
Direct communication and intimacy
Can often read in each other.

Most of all,
when in love you are not afraid of FEARS.

THE INSATIABLE.

The inevitable end of man. Its so from the beginning.
Its visits any house without a notice nor an apology,
Its sang as man's enemy.

When it comes... it does not question ones age,
It take both YOUNG and OLD,
It dose not beg nor promise any duplicate,
Even in pains and sickness it takes,
Its the INSATIABLE.

The mighty fight victoriously. the rich oppress the poor
Thy assume power, but when the inevitable comes,
It conquer.

The Christian tries to be righteous,
The pagan please their gods,
People keeps rules, numbers .
But when the insatiable comes
it takes without question.

MY THOUGHTS

YOU are my thought.
When I am away.
You are what make me happy.
Your thought demands my whole heart.

Mind and attention.
think about you in many ways.
And the day I love you.
And where our love will lead us to.
In my thought I sing for you,
you're the song of my heart.

In my thought,

I think of you as my daily sunshine.
And my evening star,
you are my dream when I'm asleep.

The only one I ever love truly.
Even things around me is moving and changing.
My thought for you remain the same.
Forever you will be my THOUGHT.

THE SOLITARY QUEEN

I'm so lonely.
So lonely is my heart
But my castle is filled with million
Yet a vacancy.

Before Morning comes
I walk in my sleep
And walked with and every eye
Because even the eye is bored to sleep.

Some days look gay
I ate and work through the garden watching
all the beauties of God's creature.
My ears filled with a melodious song
Of the friendly bird.

Yet I'm so lonely in my paradise.
In my Castle gate
I sing like a gypsy
Waiting yet another dreadful night
When no body seems to understand
Yet I'm a queen.

But my beautiful grown
Could not make me happy.
