Dark Night Mystery Bright

2004-09-10T09:49:00.000-07:00

Does it scare you, what you don't see?
Do you think about what lingers out there away from your view?
You only hear the sounds but darkness blocks everything,
It scares you a little not knowing, doesn't it?

It's mysterious, dark, with an aura,
You don't really know what to expect from it.
You think you know but you fear to question,
What lies out ahead overwhelms your being.

It's been associated with endless evil,
With witches, wth vampires, with werewolves and more.
It's said to be sinister, an envelop against security,
As many evil deeds have been done in its wake.

Honestly though it isn't all that fearful,
In fact it does hold great beauty if you take time to look.
It can bowl you over if you give it a chance,
To look right at it and accept it for it.

Will You Be?

2004-08-07T06:44:00.000-07:00

Will you be who you say,
And love me all the way;
Or would you simply be
Like all the others who came my way?

Will you tell me what's on your mind
And share every ups and downs;
Or will you share for a while
And then drift on by?

Will you treat me right,
As how I'm treating you right;
Or will you do only for a while
And leave me hanging in sight?

Will you be the one
Who'll finally stay;
Or be the one
To hurt me today?

Lost

2004-08-07T06:14:00.000-07:00

Whirling inside, emotions confused,
Staggering through to find some answers.
All I need is one simple answer,
One that unfortunately seems to ride away.

The mind refuses to let up,
The heart's heavy beyond words;
Meaning of ways seem to move on lost,
Nothing presents, nothing forth.

Try to keep mind at sane,
Wanes the truth, all a lie.
Fingers grasp thinning fog,
Deep within a silent crack.

Living Hell

2004-06-23T06:45:00.000-07:00

Satan reigns high, humanity lost,
Fiery flames engulf the soul.
They lick, they sting, they tear you apart,
Gutting you of your being within.

Screams fill the air, bodies thrash,
Satan laughs all the more.
Is this what it has all become?
Sadly, the truth is what it is at hand.

Skin Deep

2004-06-15T07:22:00.000-07:00

A flash past the eyes and all is gone,
Did you catch it in time or was it lost in time?
Does it sink in your memory and stay right in there
Or does it fade somewhat away and get replaced by something greater?

What we see might not be what it seem,
Always check what's inside, not what's on the top
A heart within speaks more than a million words,
Even far more than what the eyes can see.
Look deep with the heart and you would find,
Greater things beyond you can ever imagine.

Daddy E

2004-05-28T08:25:00.000-07:00

Daddy E, how are things with you?
I hope you’ve been happy all this while.
I don’t know if you know me from up there
But I do know you, cause you’re my Daddy E.

I remember the first time we “met”,
I was four and you were singing “Can’t Help Falling In Love”.
From that day, you’ve constantly brought me sweet memories,
I never felt that you were far from me.

Daddy E, it has been so long
But I’m glad my love for you is ever so strong.
It makes me sad whenever I know,
That you’re by me, so close yet so far.

It’s great that your voice has been captured in a never-aging cycle,
For your richness knows no bounds.
I’ll never tire hearing from you,
Those words and laughter means magic to me.

Daddy E, many times I feel you close by,
And that always bring tears to my eyes.
You’ve changed my life in a way you never knew you could,
And I’m so glad for the joy and love I’ve found through you.

Though years have passed, one after another,
Your memory will forever, remain strong in my heart.
Thank you for all the happiness you’ve given to me,
You can never know how much you mean to me.

Every night as I pray, before I go to sleep,
I ask God to keep my Daddy E in peace.
I’m sure you’ve been happy knowing we still love you so,
And I love you more so, my Daddy E.

I first heard you at age four,
And what I heard had me floored.
You sang with such warmth, love and emotion,
Capturing my attention the way it has never been captured before.
I soon came to know how to pronounce your name,
And that was one name that rang beautifully in my ears.
Daddy E was what you became known to me,
'Cos it was in you that I found much solace.
My life was a beaten track, a constant downslide,
But never once did I not feel your fatherly embrace.
Just listening to you sing brought many comforts,
To a young girl, that was so very lost.

Daddy E, you gave me so much joy,
So much that you never could realise.
Though you had passed on way before I was born,
I somehow still felt that little connection with you.
I’ve always wanted someone like you for a dad,
Someone to love me, not judge and sing to me.
Though you were never around in person,
I still felt your warm loving embrace.
Daddy E, I've been missing you so much,
After since I knew who you were and where you'd gone.
Watching you on TV brought great joy,
As I felt you all the same, maybe even more.

Even though you came into my life merely as a voice,
You still came to me with so much more.
Those times I was lost, I sought refuge with you,
Knowing that somehow you could hear my cries.
Daddy E, so many years have passed and now I'm 22,
But my love for you still remains, it's never changed and never will.
All it has become over these many years,
Is to grow stronger my love for you.
Daddy E, you gave me love that I never thought I'd have,
And I will always love you, my Daddy E.

Eyes are tools to see the beauty of life,
But all mine show is blackness, no life.
Ears are to hear the joys of this world,
But with my ears, nothing I hear.
A mouth is there to produce the sounds of love,
But with mine, nothing comes forth.

Lost and trapped in a lifeless world,
I struggle on to find life’s worth,
But all this is just too grave,
And I find myself helpless and in pain.
How I long to see, hear and speak
But all remains but a dream.

Black Beauty

2004-05-28T08:22:00.000-07:00

Darkness falls and light is snuffed,
Tiny sparks fill the sky.
Sleep is bliss and dreams come in mist,
Greeting the lovely, who rests his head.

Moonlight streams by in his way,
The warm embrace feels so gay.
Looking out into the vast of black,
Beauty seems to shine its best.

Comfort beckons the soul to bed,
Opening forth a world to seek.
Night salutes the day’s end,
Waiting to greet a new begin.

Death Peace

2004-05-28T08:21:00.000-07:00

Warmth at the heart, a glowing feel,
Maybe regret, maybe not.
Scenes pass by as the moment nears,
Finally a place away from all our fears.
The time has come, one last breath,
An end to an end, life at its last.

Deep Within

2004-05-28T08:20:00.000-07:00

Words alone aren’t always enough,
To fill those instances of loneliness;
Those times I’m on my own.
Looking through those little surprises,
Do more magic than just mere words.

Drops of surprises give warmth,
To keep the spirit burning brighter.
I do need an extra touch to feel secure,
As hurt has befallen many a more.
Magic lies beyond just words,
And I need to feel that magic revert.

Devil’s Curse

2004-05-28T08:18:00.000-07:00

A wound cut deep, it hurts so much,
A glint of silver come and gone.
Time and again, the pain bares in deep,
I’ve never bled so much.

Betrayal, hurt, distrust and tears,
A bitter alcoholic mix of lost.
I did no wrong but was never spared,
Pain bites down with merciless care.

Did I deserve your blinding stabs,
Did I deserve to swallow such pill.
You wronged me time and again,
The devil’s heart beats again.
