TIME CAPSULE

(just another table-napkin poetry)

Breathless kisses, burning touches

Sitting side-by-side with you

 The second’s ticking faster

I could hear our hearts beat loudly too

You saw what I was feeling

I know you felt it too

We wanted time to just stand still

Then forever there’d be me and you…

Why can’t we freeze this moment?

 And return to it in time

Stay together for another day

Proclaim I’m yours and you are mine

I hope to freeze this precious time

Store it safely in a way

So when we leave this moment

We’ll sure come back to it someday….

Wonder Woman Thinking Aloud

It must be nice to see you rise
each mornin’ by my bed side..

To see you smile, and wink your eyes
as you ask for one more snooze time..

I wonder if you’re ticklish?
Coz your wake up call comes free with this.

Do you want your morning shower
a little cold, or lukewarm’s better?

Do you like cream or plain black coffee?
or how strong yah want it, baby?

Am I overdoin’ it tell me…
Just love so much to please you honey.

I wish to hear your little stories
the glitches & successful journeys

I’ll never tire to listen surely
We’ve come quite far, maybe?!

But still.. a lot to laugh and live for
So many yet to do…

It seemed almost impossible
because, you know, it’s you!

If I could have a chance to say
how much you mean today…

I’d start by showing how i miss you,
no words can ever say…

And when your day begins without me
It’s not that we’re apart

For each time that you think of me
I’m right HERE in your heart.

Man on the Moon

You’re a picture of that very man; I dare not wish to fall for

Controlling, confrontational, and louder than my mother

Your nasty look, aggressive hook, offensive jokes, they matter

And honey let me tell you straight your character does bother  

 

You said it’s just a front, okay, I believe you man, but hey,

I caught you just the other day, still flirting all the way…

You feel as if, you’re just as hip, to score from all those chicks

But hearing all your pick-up lines, it made me sick for weeks

 

You stare like you can eat me whole, like peanut butter in a roll

And when you’re near, I sense some fear, all weirdness then unfold

Your eyes don’t lie, I realize, your confidence can falter…

When situation calls for it, you’re suddenly a goner

 

I hate how charming you can get, it worked for me, you bet

But more than that, hey, you know what? The ‘gentleman’ I met…

Quite surprised of that softy side, it left me thinking too

The why’s, and what’s, and where to start… or how to deal with you?

 

We had such fun, I miss that one.  You think it’s worth the trouble?

My dear, I’m more than what you think, I wouldn’t let you gamble!

For if I do, I swear, I too, will sure freak-out my father.

We wouldn’t want that, now, do we? Let’s not get any further.

 

I hope it’s clear, what I meant here… Not that my idea’s better.

Everything else was such a bore, unless you’re any closer.

Be and let be… it’s my last plea… just don’t get weird on me.

My man on the moon, one look at me FOREVER you shall see.

 

 

[Man on the moon* is the author’s idiomatic expression for a person beyond her reach, PERIOD!]

My Unfinished Business

Tormenting…
The urge of wanting to confront it
Afraid it would be embarrassing?
Hurting… and demeaning…
Keeping things hangin’ on
Like a hot tamale… you dropped it
And then all the hope is gone

What can’t I handle I ask?
Cowardice… is all I guess

Obviously haunting me.
Persistently…
It’s never plain to see
Does it have to be this upsetting?
TELL ME…
What didn’t I see coming?

Clueless, as it seems
I was all right then… I deem.

Until you came along.
We agreed on a ‘no’ I know
But it kept bugging me so
Evidently, undeniably.
Unceasingly inflicting me
Way beyond my expectations
You are…
Scarin’ the hell out of me by far

Blame me, insult me, face me…
Go ask me ANYTHING…
Anything at all from YOU
Trust me, that would do…
Spare me from that cold cold
Unfamiliar treatment…
Killin’ me… your silence is
LIKE an impediment…
Blocking my airways
If only I can read what your mind says…

Let’s not leave this in vain…
Hoping TO see a rainbow after the rain.
I appreciate you even more today…
Just hated how selfishly you had it your way
Spell it cause I’m sometimes slow…
CONFESS…that’s the only way to go!

my sweet karma

denial. the worst of all feelings. strikes like a spear in the bull’s eye. a superficial smile. a cry in the rain. a lonely masquerade. screaming out loud. within. better not exist. 

love found. in the most unexpected place. but something gets in the way. always something. it took control. suddenly lost perspective. defying reasons. neglecting rational behaviors. the kiss that burned the bridge.

my lifeline. why does it hurt so much? irregularly beating. selfishly consuming. my all.

a love too strong to deny

In dreams I search for a timeless love
Without boundaries bestowed below or above.

Our eyes meet… our souls embrace again and again,
No words ever spoken from beginning to end.

I feel you as if we’re two halves of one whole
In the company of peace, you feed my soul.

I awaken from sleep with you in my heart
Disguising all truths until daylight departs.

In this life we may never completely reside
In a home with children at each of our sides.

Still, I feel a love so fully divine
That I know we’ll continue through space, age and time…

WITHOUT ME

jen1.jpg

When tomorrow starts without me
And I’m not there to see
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
all filled with tears for me
I wish so much you wouldn’t cry
the way you did today
While thinking of the many things
we didn’t get to say…
I know how much you love me,
as much as I love you
And each time that I think of you
I know you miss me too…
But when tomorrow starts without me
I hope you somehow knew
For all my life, I’d never thought
this love would see us through…
Our two souls met, without regret
We rushed with endless joy
Ignoring every social norm
like little carefree girl & boy
So much to laugh and live for
So many yet to do…
But it seemd almost impossible
because, you know, it’s you!
I thank God for our trying days
the good ones and the bad
I thank you for all the things we shared,
and all the fun we had
I thank you for your little ways
of expressing “I love you”
And I hope that through this poem
you’d feel how much I do…
If I could have a chance today
just even for awhile…
I’d say I love you and I’d kiss you,
and simply watch you smile
And when tomorrow starts without me
Don’t think we’re far apart
For every time you think of me
I’m right here in your heart.
