Deep Poetry By Me

~Volume 2: Beyond Empty~
YOU *I struggle with my inner self* *You resurrect me with your revelations* I listen to your revelations You speak to me in metaphors I question such and such metaphors You answer in my rhetoric I surrender to my rhetoric You benedict me with your wisdom I search for you in your wisdom And at last you reveal my existence
RED WINE Rich red glass of wine So bitter sweet and warm How it soothes the empty heart And rekindles our friendship's charm Rich red glass of wine Un-yet consummate by your drink Glass so close to your faraway lips And so my heavy heart does sink Rich red glass of wine The bottle is drawing near Rich red glass of wine Still I await; year after year......
WE ARE LOST TOGETHER I struggled, I bled, I burned But I succeeded, I'm here at last If only you could see me now Upon the summit, high and vast But you are not here anymore To share this triumph with me Only your kind soul remains On the other side of the sea I remember our cherished old times How you taught me to persevere To strive always for excellence And boldly confront my fears You, the one who watched me Face defeat with self dignity And diligently live my life With grace, courage and humility How I remember those summer days Of endless talk and seamless thoughts On life, truth and discovery It was meaning beyond living we sought Yes, we once did search for the key And found our souls to connect But now that you are gone It will take much time to perfect Perhaps you will never really return From your far, far away home But in my heart you are the one I write and dedicate this poem
I WANT TO KNOW YOU I want to know you What you think, how you feel I want to know you *Your mindful soul and how it heals* *I want to know you* How you listen, what you reflect *I want to know you* *Your hidden truths, and secrets neglect* *I want to know you* *How you judge, how you speak* *I want to know you* *Your noble deeds and care for the weak* *I want to know you* *How you live, what you believe* *I want to know you* *Your affirmations and what you've achieved* *I want to know you* *Each step that you take* I want to know you How you give to humanity's sake *I want to know you* *I want to understand* I want to know you *And reach and touch your hand* *I want to know you* *Your sorrows and your fears* *I want to know you* *And tell you I am always here*
INEBRIATE ME *Inebriate me, inebriate me* With your softest whisper *And un*spoken sorrows A sip of warm spirits Let's share this drink *Taste the sweet tingle* Lie here by the undulating waves And set our spirits adrift to the sea *Inebriate me, inebriate me* Surrender to the dawn of loneliness *Stare into the vast endlessness* Sink into sorrow slumber *One more glass of this magic* To bury the shattered soul *A tender heart wounded* By the attack of winter's neglect Inebriate me, inebriate me *Let me die...please, let me die* But see the day nature's doubts dissipate Inhale the fresh spring air of ocean tears Bathe in open arms of forgiveness Fill my empty glass with life My wounded arms tremble and raise To say goodbye to the sadness of yesterday And may our revelation meet again
