Emoetry - Forever

His doing a 180 on the freeway,
Riding towards the igneous sunset,
Heading for the bridge near the bay,
To that spot where they first met,

He finds peace whenever his here,
The setting sun always relaxes him,
The sky orange with a tinge of azure,
His view of the sea starts to dim,

Other than the atmosphere and view,
Memories would soon fill his mind,
He wished to relive every one anew,
He wanted to leave the future behind,

This was where their paths crossed,
Broken hearts with a different story,
Lost souls sad, lonely and confused,
Both looking for a moment of revelry,

He decides to walk over to her slowly,
She looks at him and lets out a smile,
They just watched the sunset quietly,
Both longed for the silence for awhile,

As the sun let out its one final glow,
And the moon appears to take its place,
They finally turned and said "Hello",
Moonlight illuminating her angelic face,

They then spent hours together,
Hours eventually turning into days,
Days led to the promise of forever,
But forever is a word that never stays,

Forever broke and it became whenever,
Whenever ended and it became soon,
Soon stopped and it became never,
Never stayed on just like the moon,

It was like a fairy tale in the beginning,
With a sweet love story in the middle,
But there's always a twist in the ending,
A dreaded answer to an obvious riddle,

Listening to the soft crash of the waves,
And staring at the sky filled with stars,
He finally wipes his tears on his sleeves,
And moves away from the steel bars,

As he rides off into the velvet night,
She finally arrives but its a little too late,
He rides down the road devoid of light,
At that moment there's a twist of fate,

In the distance she hears a loud crash,
Driving towards that sickening noise,
In her mind unwanted images flash,
She starts hearing his sweet voice,

She finds him in a pool of blood motionless,
He wipes her tears and says "I'll be better",
She cries as she held him close in the mess,
With his last breath all he said was "Forever".

Emoetry - Gone

Pieces of me fall to the ground,
But I move on without a sound,
As I slowly stop and turn around,
The old me is nowhere to be found,

The memories that used to remain,
In the darkest corners of my brain,
Which caused all the hurt and pain,
Were never thought of ever again,

Deep down in me there was a secret,
It was a secret that filled me with fret,
Time spent with you was hard to forget,
Yet now I'm moving on without regret,

Losing you was what I really needed,
Just another chapter in life that ended,
The chapter that I would have avoided,
But its made me learn to be grounded,

I'm asking you to take a look at me now,
And see how time has made me grow,
Our ending a new beginning somehow,
Memories of us now just an afterglow,

You may have been the sweetest one,
Yet you left me afraid, frail and alone,
But after all that's been said and done,
I thank you because the old me is gone.

Emoetry - Easter Wonder

In the room with a closed door,
Only silence is heard in the hall,
Posters strewn across the floor,
Instead of staying put on the wall,

Sitting silently on a tatty mattress,
Brooding under a hooded sweater,
Breathing in dust from the mess,
Writing on a used piece of paper,

Determined to finish his last poem,
His greatest piece of work ever,
Writing the Lord's beautiful anthem,
And how God made his life better,

He thanks God for giving him life,
He thanks God for the people he loves,
He thanks God for keeping them safe,
He thanks God for the bread loaves,

He thanks God for Jesus,
He thanks Jesus for taking his place,
Forgiving his sins in a way so glorious,
That thoughts of it makes him rejoice,

The moment he finishes writing,
He throws open the curtains,
Gets on his knees and starts praying,
Thanking God for easing the pains,

He stands up and spreads his wings,
Stands on the window sill to the roof,
He looks up to the skies and sings,
That God is the one and only proof,

Dreaming of this glorious day,
Ever since he was just only seven,
He was ready to make his way,
To be by God's side in heaven.

I thank God for every moment I'm alive,
I thank God for forgiving all of my sins,
I thank God for teaching me how to love,
I thank God for breaking my chains,

God gives me strength,
God saves me from evil,
God is with me on Earth,
God hides me from the devil,

My lord God is indescribable,
My lord God is unchanging,
My lord God is a love miracle,
My lord God is alive and living.

Thank You for everything Father.
In Jesus's name I pray.
Amen.

Emoetry - Sing

I sing; While she falls asleep,
It helps casts her worries away,
Peaceful; In a dream so deep,
I sing because she promised to stay,

I sing; While she's sick,
Songs are a miracle medication,
Better; As she recovers quick,
I sing because she's my addiction,

I sing; While she's fuming mad,
Just to calm and soothe her soul,
Calm; Things no longer seem bad,
I sing because she made me whole,

I sing; While she's on bed crying,
Hoping to stop her falling tears,
Happy; Its great to see her smiling,
I sing because she killed my fears,

I sing; While she's feeling euphoric,
The songs just adds to the memories,
Free; Life with her is always idyllic,
I sing because she stifled my cries,

I sing; As she wakes in the morning,
While she's bathed in sunshine,
Alive; She's the reason I'm living,
I sing because she's mine.

Emoetry - Burning

Sitting quietly in the dark,
Searching for an inspiration,
Waiting for a poetic spark,
Finding a needed revelation,

The room is lit by candle light,
I watched the flames flicker,
Something doesn't feel right,
I pause and start to wonder,

Everything was quite a blur,
Like the line between the smoke,
And flame which lost its fervour,
When my chain of thought broke,

Something struck me in the face,
It was quick; I never saw it coming,
And it was gone without a trace,
It felt like my head was burning,

I smelled the ashes of my skin,
Watching embers fall to the ground,
The burning continues deep within,
The flames searing and soul bound,

It consumed my soul in a fiery blaze,
It made my heart pound furiously,
Leaving me in confused and in a daze,
Yet it left me euphoric surprisingly,

Like a torrent of unsurpassed passion,
A much needed surge of emotion,
A welcomed poetic blood transfusion,
Poetry was finally back in motion,

Thanks to that burning candle,
Which has melted into my heart,
Making every complication bearable,
Making my life into a work of art.

Emoetry - Leaving Me, Loving You

Standing on the summit,
Watching another sunrise,
On the soft green grass I sit,
With a calm; stoic disguise,

The flow of the cool breeze,
Sets my trapped soul free,
I wish this scene could freeze,
Stopping the sway of every tree,

The warmth of the rising sun,
Heats up my cold empty soul,
Sitting up here used to be fun,
When you and I were a whole,

This is where we shared our bliss,
Where we confessed our feelings,
Where we shared our first kiss,
Where we had our secret meetings,

Every single moment here felt right,
When you let out your sweet charm,
When you were silhouetted by sunlight,
When you hung on tightly to my arm,

You made my world more than fine,
With your beautifully angelic smile,
With your sweet cherry lips on mine,
You made living seem worthwhile,

The moment you left my soul died,
Your absence has torn me to pieces,
The moment you left I was denied,
Your absence is now a sufferances,

My ice cold facade falls apart,
Eyes filled with sickening tears,
I feel a sharp pain in my heart,
I'm living in a nightmare of fears,

Lifting my head to the heavens,
I pray for an angel to take me away,
I start hearing the caws of ravens,
But God says "No my child; not today",

That is when I feel the cool air,
With the sweet scent of roses,
I feel fingers run through my hair,
And taste lips from sweet kisses,

I open my eyes ever so slowly,
Afraid of the blinding light,
I now see your outline so clearly,
You held me in your arms so tight,

You whispersed "I'm sorry I left you",
"Its something I'll never do again",
"Please forgive me for all the pain",
All I said was "I love you too".

Emoetry - Sweet Addiction

I have an addiction,
To poetry in motion,
Its a spicy temptation,
Life and every creation,

But my greatest addiction,
Is my greatest possession,
Or my greatest affliction,
It leads me on a mission,

What do I choose to abuse?
What lights my poetic fuse?
Who is this so called muse?
What is it that I choose?

To put it very simply,
Its how you love me,
To put it very sweetly,
Its how we're meant to be,

Its your hugs and kisses,
That keeps me living,
You've fulfilled all my wishes,
But I still keep on wishing,

For us to be this way forever,
To you I'll never say never,
You're the greatest drug ever,
Yes you; my sweet lover.

Emoetry - She Stands There

She stands there waiting,
In a beautiful flowing gown,
She stands there crying,
With a very cute frown,

She stands there wiping,
Her tears that flow slowly,
She stands there staring,
As I walk over to her calmly,

She stands there stoically,
As I wipe her tears gently,
She stands there confused,
As I smile like I'm amused,

She stands there steadily,
As I hugged her tightly,
She stands there smiling,
As we slowly start kissing,

She stands there waiting,
Still with a smile on her face,
Its not me she's missing,
As it wasn't my time or place.

Emoetry - It Started With A Blink

I see something blink,
In the dark night sky,
It makes me think,
What if I could fly,

Where would I go?
Could I be with you?
Even if it were so,
Are these feelings true?

I ask myself silly questions,
Which make me hesitate,
And break into little fractions,
These are the feelings I hate,

Not being able to tell you how I feel,
Not being able to be by your side,
Feeling your breath so real,
I want to know why do I run & hide?

Emoetry - More Than Bloodline

We met four years back,
In a place that felt like hell,
Where skies were pitch black,
And leaves constantly fell,

The moment we clicked,
Situations drastically changed,
It was a friendship that worked,
No longer were we estranged,

We spent endless hours at night,
At the point of pointlessness,
Till the arrival of the bright sun light,
With unending topics of madness,

We've shared moments of bliss,
And also shared moments of pain,
Good times; moments I miss,
Bad times; never again,

I've found the greatest of friends,
Who've been there for me always,
I pray our friendship never ends,
We'll be friends till the end of days.

To my blood brothers,
I'd take a bullet for you,
To my beloved sisters,
I'll always watch out for you,

I write and dedicate,
This poem to my "family",
Amazing how we met by fate,
I love all of you sincerely.

Emoetry - Answering Dreams

It was passed midnight,
I was close to sleeping,
Under the moonlight,
With crickets chirping,

The silence is broken,
By a "handy" cellphone,
Immediately I awaken,
To silence the ring tone,

I answered the call,
I mumbled a "hello",
One of my pillows fall,
I stop felling mellow,

After a minute or two,
There was still no reply,
I had no idea what to do,
I waited as time passed by,

I started to count sheep,
And I said "hello" again,
I was ready to fall asleep,
"Rest now" said my brain,

I did my best to stay awake,
To the monotonous silence,
I said "Oh for God's sake!",
Thinking of a next sentence,

I hear an unfamiliar voice,
It captured my attention,
Even through the noise,
Awaiting a connection,

I heard it again once more,
A voice strangely missed,
My ear was getting sore,
But I wasn't even pissed,

The line started to clear,
I heard her voice perfectly,
Her sweet voice so dear,
The one I missed so badly,

We both had loads to say,
We spoke till daybreak,
A start of another day,
The end of heartache,

I could hear her sighs,
I didn't want this to end,
It was time for goodbyes,
Time wasn't being a friend,

We both hit the "red" button,
That's when my eyes opened,
Head still on very soft cotton,
It was only a dream that ended,

She was by my side all this while,
Dreaming calmly without a care,
Asleep with a beautiful smile,
Radiant like a flower so rare,

I kissed her whilst holding her,
Feeling her warmth was all I need,
I prayed we'll be this way forever,
Forever living in a dream indeed.

Emoetry - Distant Thoughts

Its hard to forget,
Someone like you,
When our eyes met,
A dream came true,

In an unfamiliar place,
At an unexpected scene,
The smile on your face,
Made it all feel serene,

Your presence was ample,
To drown out the noise,
You made it seem simple,
All I heard was your voice,

You smiled and said "Hi",
I paused and stuttered,
What sounded like "Bye",
You stared and laughed,

Life paused for a moment,
As I gazed into your eyes,
I wanted it to be permanent,
I hate it when time flies,

As days turned into months,
Time spent with you fade,
Memories; moth eaten cloths,
Fragments left in a dark shade,

I still think of you now and again,
Wondering if you remember me,
The distance is driving me insane,
Its your smile I'm wishing to see,

I still hear you but its not easy,
Because the sound of your voice,
Its now just a distant memory,
Result of a poorly made choice,

If I had made a different move,
Would things be any different?
Would we be here and in love?
Or would I have left a dent?

You're still a distant thought,
But someday I'll draw you close,
You're the angel I sought,
The one I wouldn't want to lose.

Emoetry - Bliss In The Abyss

Staring into the abyss,
Wishing to find peace,
Hoping to find bliss,
Praying for a release,

I find things unexpected,
Thoughts I wished were dead,
Situations that I hated,
Still locked in my aching head,

Memories long forgotten,
Dates and days I've hidden,
Feelings that have rotten,
Like the apples of Eden,

Why are they still here?
All these things that I fear,
In my visions they adhere,
All disgustingly crystal clear,

Yet all of them are precious,
Each one as darling as the other,
Each one marvellousy wondrous,
In my mind they will always linger,

Once more I stare into the abyss,
Knowing it is you that I miss,
Remembering every kiss,
You definitely are my abysmal bliss.

Emoetry - Lovely Skies

Have you noticed from afar,
How a star looks like a crystal jar,
But it'll still never been on par,
As the sparkle in your lover's eyes,
Or the gleam as you say goodbye,
Or how a glance makes you fly,

Have you ever clearly seen,
A blue moon where you've been,
And how it makes you feel serene,
Just like when your lover smiles,
The whole world just freezes awhile,
It stays with you for a million miles,

Have you ever wanted to feel,
Clouds that were so soft so real,
Yet looking at them feels so surreal,
Its like feeling your lover's skin,
Their touch makes your head spin,
Its a dream you've wished to be in,

Have you ever silently listened,
To the raindrops as it poured,
Leaving your soul relaxed,
Its as if your lover is laughing,
They show us the purpose of living,
To find our way and stop wondering,

Have you ever tried tasting,
Snowflakes when it was snowing,
You still do it even when its freezing,
Will it remind you of your lover's lips,
And do you remember every kiss,
I'm sure its something you truly miss,

Have you ever wondered,
How the dark clouds disappeared,
And a rainbow magically appeared,
Its because they do it out of love,
Our lovers sent from up above,
In our lives they are wove.

Emoetry - Fine & Breathing Letdown

There is a singer,
Whom I admire,
His songs make me unwind,
His words tend to linger,
Like an ever burning fire,
In the depths of my mind,

So here are a few lines,
From albums new and old,
Each one brilliant as the other,
That I've changed to rhymes,
With it my story will unfold,
And keep you entertained forever,

When I wake in the morning,
I thank God that I'm living,
I want to blow into pieces,
And conquer new places,
I want more than just okay,
Why can't it be like this everyday?

When I’m up with the sunrise,
Your beauty is always a surprise,
I want more than just blue skies,
I need to stare into your hazel eyes,
I want more than just okay,
It is; as beside you I get to lay,

When I'm lit with the sunshine,
I know I'm more than fine,
I want more than just a good time,
And I will chronicle them in a rhyme,
I want more than just okay,
Because to you I get to say,

That I'm learning to breathe,
You've pulled me out of my sheathe,
I'm learning to crawl,
You've healed me after every brawl,
I'm finding that You,
With everything you do,

And You alone can break my fall,
You've been with me through it all,
I'm living again, awake and alive,
Into your beautiful soul I wish to dive,
I'm dying to breathe in these abundant skies,
You presence tends to ease my sighs,

It was a beautiful letdown,
Into the gutter I was thrown,
When I crashed and burned,
To stop my cries you returned,
When I found myself alone; unknown and hurt,
You found ways to mend my heart,

The day I knew,
The day I truly grew,
That all the riches this world had to offer me,
As rich as I may tend to be,
Would never do,
As all I ever needed was you,

When You found me here,
I was constantly leaving in fear,
Yeah, for once in a rare blue moon,
I've received my boon,
I see everything clear,
As you've wiped away my tears,

I'll be a beautiful letdown,
No longer will I frown,
That's what I'll forever be,
As you've given life back to me,
And though it may cost my soul,
Which no longer has a gaping hole,
I'll sing for free,
Your beauty the world has to see.

Emoetry - Anything For Everything

If I could do anything,
Just anything at all,
It would be this li'l something,
That you couldn't buy at a mall,

This something is from the heart,
That you'll keep in your soul,
Forever; even when we're apart,
Even when I'm not there to hold,

Its something that you can find,
Even when life keeps you down,
And when you need to unwind,
When in a troubled sea you drown,

What would I be able to do?
To keep you out of the blue,
I need you to be true,
No wait; I don't want a clue,

Whenever we're together,
It feels as time slows to halt,
I wish it'll stay this way forever,
While we dance an endless waltz,

Whenever I catch a glimpse,
Of your magnificent beauty,
Its like watching a lunar eclipse,
My heart tends to stop its duty,

But its no longer about me,
Or how I want things to be,
I just want you to see,
That I want you to be free,

So keep that angelic smile,
And that shine in your eyes,
Even when we say our goodbyes,
And not see each other for awhile,

Just smile everyday,
As I'm watching over you faraway,
For as on this green grass I lay,
My feelings for you will never sway,

But please keep this promise,
After seeing all you need to see,
And being who you need to be,
Please come back to me.

Emoetry - Song Of My Soul

If a song could describe how I feel,
Its got to be John Morrison's "You Give Me Something",
Because these feelings could be nothing,
But I'm willing to try and make them real,

I'm sitting where we were yesterday,
Where I had to keep my feelings at bay,
I miss your laughter and smile,
Just thinking of you makes my heart run wild,

As Jon Foreman sings "On Fire",
Thats exactly how I feel when I'm with you,
I hope you're feeling the same way too,
In me I'm hiding a deeply burning desire,

I'm still sitting where we were yesterday,
Where we shared a drink,
There are a million things I wish I could say,
But for now I'll just do it in ink,

David Cook now does his rendition of "Music of the Night",
What he sings is so true; you do make my soul take flight,
If only you could read this poem that I write,
About this feeling thats eating me for the inside like a termite,

The train comes to a screeching stop,
As I sip on my diluted fizzy pop,
Wishing to see you stepping down on the platform,
But the truth is you're still back in your dorm,

Finally Toryn Green starts in his husky voice,
"Leave The Memories Alone" drowns out the noise,
Thats exactly how I want things to be,
In my mind; nothing but the memories of you and me,

I left that place with a heavy heart,
Wishing to relive everything that transpired,
To me; You are God's greatest work of art,
Its you that'll keep me forever inspired.

Emoetry - Short & Sweet

Here's a question,
Given a chance,
Given a solution,
What would you change?

If I were you,
I wouldn't change a thing,
Or everything I had to do,
You'd find the answer surprising,

Why? As I'm glad I met you,
Yes, you; the girl who took a nap,
(While you were a bit drunk)on my lap,
This may seem funny but its true,

I've enjoyed the time we spent,
Albeit its been only talking,
You are heaven sent,
Its hard when you're not smiling,

So whatever it is; don't frown,
Just remember this foolish clown,
I'll make your sorrows drown,
Turning your frown upside down.

Emoetry - Rainy Days

I love it when it rains,
The sound calms my mind,
The drops cleanses my sins,
And I leave my fears behind,

I love how it refreshes life,
How it makes everything new,
It helps when troubles are rife,
And when pleasures are few,

I love how it quenches thirst,
When my throat is dry,
It never makes things worst,
It just makes troubles slip by,

I love it when its raining,
Because it reminds me of you,
And how you keep me living,
With every little thing you do,

When its a drizzle,
Its like your calm demeanor,
Each drop like a gem that dazzles,
Which is why I make you smile more,

When it gets heavier,
Its like our every argument,
Yet I'll wipe away your every tear,
I try to make your smile permanent,

What I really love about a storm,
Its how I can keep you warm,
To embrace you in my arms,
To keep you from being forlorn,

That's why I pray,
For the rain to never go away,
Because I get to lay,
Next to you and say,

Thank you for being here,
To take away my fears,
Stay with me my dear,
In my ever raining sphere.

Emoetry - 4 A.M.

Its 4 in the morning,
I should be sleeping,
Awake in the dreaming,
But something's lacking,

The sandman has visited,
More than a bag he wasted,
A sandcastle was created,
He left utterly frustrated,

As my eyes were still bright,
Like the stars and the moon,
Which lit the sky at night,
But the sun would come soon,

I tossed and turned in bed,
Pillows moved; blanket flew,
I felt sweat from my head,
It certainly wasn't morning dew,

I lay back once more,
Trying to finally slumber,
I left my mind to wonder,
Through every thought I tore,

That's when I finally saw,
You; Oh graceful angel,
A beauty without any flaws,
Magnificent in every angle,

I remember your pretty smile,
It sent shivers down my spine,
It was you I needed all this while,
To make me feel fine,

You were all I saw in my dreams,
That night in my sleep so deep,
Your silhouette will always gleam,
In my thoughts when I sleep.
