Hidden from the naked eyes
A castaway in a no man's land
A beauty unfolded and untouched
This graceful flower in the desert storm
Crimson reddish colored in brilliant fervors
Through the entire empty space of deserted land
It had grown into full blossom, near spring water well

How could all these to have been hidden
Or would one could ever again hope to grasp
Such an enigma in unimaginable quantum phrase
To be embodied in the remoteness of hardened crust
In an unchartered oasis, the flower lives, under miracles
Escaping the seeing eyes and to be placed in the hidden land
The splendor shall forever remains, this beauty by the roses bed



I have searched beyond the seven seas for the likes of you
I would travel the far distance in that endless journey
Walking by in distraught into the hot flaming desert
Sleeping all alone in cold naked on winters night
Until I had finally sought onto your shadows
I have found the jewels placed within you
To be able to hold you close in my arms
Would have been such a treasure
Of anyone's granted lifetime
If only you know of these
And may you see me
Through all these
Thickened
Mists
Be



It has since been a while…
Since we had last talked to each other
To hear your voice as if they were musical notes

It has since been a while…
Since I had last gazed into your very eyes
To realize again that they would glow like satin pearls

It has since been a while…
Since we had last shared wishing thoughts
To hear your heart whispering in mellow shades of life

It has since been a while…
Since I had imagined that you were mine
To be able to hold you so closely deep within my thoughts

It has since…been a while



One should not force the other in love
For if it was so, then it was not love
It is that crossing path of two souls
Colliding blindly in mysteries ways
Set forth by God as His Blessings
To subjects chosen by His Wills
Love is lilted in rhythmic tunes
Echoed through the humps of life
Melodies jubilating harmoniously
Drum beats that warms cold nights
Comforting hut from the burning sun
And a prerequisite to the essence of love



those passing moments
of our colorful lives
a comet's crossing
shimmering lights
within instances
of given moments
drifting hazily by
until destiny calls

those passing minutes
of the extended hour
to have embraced
the graceful tone
of silvery clouds
entrapped within
the vicious circle
of violent storms

...............................................remember of us in vague
if......................................that every images lingered
time would so...................to those moments spend by us
untwist &unwind............happy thoughts and minutes
returning us back to the state where we use to be
recalling the time & moment of our first crossing
emotions deeply casketed in my heart & soul
the emphasis of glory until its fateful state..............dreams...
rudely awaken by realities and back onto solid grounds
aroused by your callings and crashing in darkened nights
you and me was of one and the world our magical carpet
and then came doubts and insecurities none of our doings
the earth was being split apart and divided it was to be
drifting away until the greens could no longer be seen
you and me would have made a very good us

me.......as i was before

when i think of you
i only think of all good things
when i would remember about us
+++++ i would only remember the cherished thoughts +++++
+++ when we had cried silently in sad times +++
++ moments when we laughed joyously ++

+ times we had gathered in hope +

to capture it
so clearly
that
no others could possibly have
yes, i was there to see all these
it is when i had wanted you by me
to embrace you close in my arms
to refurbish all the broken dreams
so that you may continue to live
back in the joyful state that you used to be
to provide that second chance of good times
that i would help another in ways that i could
that you would be the trophy of my achievement



i hesitated on that given time
she had waited for my reason
i could have spelt it out clearly
but i had mumbled it up in vein
my heart had wanted to say it aloud
but my mind said that i had better not
'why not?' my heart had asked my mind
while my face perspired with burning sweats
my body temperature rose to two hundred degree
i knew i had to give a very clear indication for her to see
my mouth almost at the verge of saying that magical word
but my mind quickly came into the picture and held me back
i could hear a whisper from deep within and it had then told me
“she is simply too good for you and you know yourself too well”
and after giving a deep thought, i had whispered back saying
'you are so true and i had better not say it for her sake'
and so i had only sniggered and said nothing
i had missed out that opportunity
to have said to her that
i had truly

all these happened
within splits of a second
and it may be for a long time
that i would be intoxicated by her
she had placed down the telephone
'no regrets' is what i had said to myself
that i had done the most courageous thing in my life
saving this beautiful and wonderful lady away from myself
that i would be content for the rest of the days that i should live
that it was not just a matter of having to conquer someone’s heart
i will 'Rest In Peace' as we can only love others in lights of giving
it is more complete when we are not asking for anything in return
i hope that in the coming days i will continue to love her as a friend



where can i go with...............these feet of mine?
where can i go, knowing.........myself and others don't?
where in due time they would find that i'll be a comfort zone
where i could stay in a quiet place i would call a pleasant home?
where men won't chase me with knives & guns despite of my air gun
where can i go where people would just accept me for what i really am?
where i can ink the sky and not seen as an alien in a planet that i am not
where i can speak out in peace without attracting much anger & hatreds
where i can spill my deep thoughts without harming any not intended at
where i can lay my hat & lie peacefully knowing my back is not stabbed
where can i find this Utopia in the cities of gruesome spitefulness?
where i can stay where the folks are kind & understanding
where i can lodge during the distance travel of mine
where is this place that i dream of to be at?
where can this place possibly be?
where i can finally be at
am i there yet?
Utopia?
?



In most places, I would hide,
Only to find you by my side...
In most surroundings, I blends with the light,
But you were still very close by within my sight...
You would write my name on stones and upon the old oak trees,
As I will write about your endless plights to set my heart free...
