The Ungiven Rose

In the garden of our memories, there lies
A rose untouched its petals still closed tight
Its hue unseen by her adoring eyes
Yet it blooms forever in the soft twilight.

Each petal holds the whispers left unsaid
The love unspoken in its fragrant core
Though gifted not it thrives within my head
A symbol of the love I still adore.

Its thorns, a reminder of missed chances
The prick of longing a silent regret
For words unvoiced in fleeting romances
The rose embodies what I can't forget.

So here it rests, a beauty unbestowed
A token of love in my heart's abode
The rose I never gave her forever sowed
In verses of love an eternal ode.

Dream of a lover

In the realm of slumber, where dreams take flight
Lies the portrait of my lover's night.
A canvas spun with hues so bright
A vision woven in the veil of moon's light.

In dreams my lover's spirit soars
Amidst celestial realms it explores.
Whispers of stardust a cosmic choir
Guiding them higher and higher.

Through valleys of reverie they gracefully roam
In a world where fantasy finds its home.
Visions painted with love's tender gleam
As if their heart's deepest desires stream.

In sleep's embrace their soul takes flight
Chasing wishes in the velvet night.
Dreams unfurl a poetic cover
A testament to their passion an eternal lover.

Their dream a sanctuary a cherished place
Where fantasies dance with effortless grace.
In that hallowed space where dreams dont lie
My lover's heart takes flight soaring high.

Poets Returns

In quiet spaces where words once dwelled,
I’ve returned, my pen, no longer quelled.
Through whispers of the midnight’s breeze,
Verse and rhythm, my soul appease.

Upon this canvas of blankened sheet,
Ink spills forth, a waltz, complete.
Each syllable, a fleeting grace,
Crafted within this silent space.

Oh, muse, revive these dormant rhymes,
Let metaphors bloom like blossomed limes.
For time has passed, but essence lingers,
In poetic realms, where heartstrings finger.

Ink meadows bloom in azure hue,
Stanzas dance, revealing the true
depths of feelings, a tapestry spun,
Echoes of tales that are yet undone.

Let phrases flow, cascade like rain,
A sonnet’s kiss, an ode’s refrain.
In this rebirth, this poet’s flight,
Words paint the world in sheer delight.

So here I stand, at poetry’s door,
In this new chapter, yearning for more.
With each line penned, my spirit’s freed,
The poet returns, once lost, now heed.

Cut throat singing? Singing red, Just pouring my heart into it?
Quiet down my dear heart and let my woes call just after the tears have fallen
Sing a song of drunkenness
Dead will rise to life from their graves
Naked self, I stitch turning dust to clay with my tears
The solace that awaits
Countless gardens have withered to an unappealing brown
Enchant me with a thread of hope that only desire can bring
Or
Just remind me that it will soon be spring.

I am a hypocrite and a liar.

Your heart was broken
By my words of dismay
I contemplate the shattered
Soul behind your eyes each day
Wrapped up in unrequited love,
I’m sorry that I was never good enough
I know deeply. I know best, outside of it all. Trust me, it pains me every day.
From the sweet messages to our time together, there is an emptiness I can literally see
Your happiness radiates for a whole mile
The laughter in your eyes
The perfect disguise
I don't recognize this face in the mirror,
this didn't use to be me,
what am I?
How far away am I?
All the damage I've seen,
I’m just a wounded emptiness sometimes, maybe just worth trampling on. I should map out good intent values ​​on my own. When the day is over and the brain is still clicking and something in the heart is shaking
Surely, this message will wrinkle-
my painful words silently drifting away.
And all that'd be left was my starving soul,
craving to be found one day.

It is hard to separate the love from the lover.

Your blood does not swim in my veins.This smoke does not fill your lungs so your opinion does not matter at all.

It was an unseen nemesis
They had to stay inside 
It was everywhere Unseen
Siege
While it looked beautiful outside 
There were hidden dangers
At night we sit with our fears
Afraid to sleep
Not sure what the morning will bring
Siege
Wearing the rolled
prayers of wailing pain
scribed with bits of
dust from the
the broken walls of
demolished buildings
and desolate homes
beyond habitation,
I lose
with my heart and soul
Inflicting pain, sorrows
griefs -- endless remorse
On the rooftops of tragedies, my heart sink more
like an orphan, an abandoned child
my homeland bleeds
i scream within
i feel the abandonment
Once my homeland was pure
it was freed from blood
, insensitivity
our country was a flesh in body
now it is a dead body amongst many flesh
forgotten the promises
forgotten the true truths
in the name of revenge, we humiliate humanity
My homeland I feel your pain
in my heart I carry all with me.

I stand up, and this one of me turns into a hundred of me. They say I circle around you.
Nonsense.
I circle around me
In love i stay awake
And this one of me turns into a hundred of me
They say I'm mad in love
Both candle, and the moth crazy about this madness.

You are a summer night

I love the way you look at me when we are done
I love the way your body looks when your on top
Mind
Soul
Body
All colliding into one
Cool breath fanning over burning skin
your hot breath Consumes my ears my neck
Under those passionate eyes
My soul was devoured away
Trapped under a lustful spell
I'll see you again
Like soul mates
Mating with faith
You were never that sure about
Your feelings , always so insecure
Used me like a stepping stone
So let's pretend and remind ourselves
That our need for love has grown
I kept saying " If you go, please let me know "
