Something has been lost
We didn’t have time to fully enjoy
Not that is actually ever belonged
Even as brief as a glint in your eye
A sly smile on your cheek
I felt your heart slow down
And all of that time stands still
All the flashes from the many
Raindrops like silvery dots
Soaking us in purist delight
Your blue eyes looking out
Under your gaze of deep darkness
Dazzle and fills my naked heart

The shadow of your past lingers on
Like a soft petal of a rose
Frozen in your memory
Alas she found you, called out
And those frozen moments of time come alive
Unfurled, like a dream that shook you
In the wake of dawn
And like a dew that moistened the ground, her lips aching for you to drench,
Harvest it's glorious sweetness only you can, ,,trigger that pleasure she sorely miss in your absence.
Oblivion took reign of your existence
For a while nothing exists between you and her
And why not, she only left you temporarily
She told you, once her wings are full of silver and gold,
Like an eagle she will fly back to you
She promised
Now her future filled with the security of
What money can buy, alas she's back
If only to taste you one more time.
Perhaps even for a lifetime.
Don't worry about me, I surely understand.
I just knew it is just a matter of moments.
And so it is. I'm free and that's all that matters.
Good luck.
And yes, I have no regrets.
I can only thank you for the memories.

A delicate balance held under
one cool breeze warmed by the sun
Frailty in love fragrantly echoes
deeply carried on birds song
Peace and serenity holds the air
on a vapor trailing thought
Looking around at heather blossoms
withering caught in a web
Silent blowing warm brushing whispers
rustling through the trees golden
Baby blue dressed with mother of pearl
clouds scatter the sky sparsely
Star of the sea beautiful vessel
sails upon salted remains
Your music plays the sweetest strings tug
swims to the heart in each beat

The highest wave hence seven syllables beginning
soaring into cloud nine syllables creating waves warmly peak
couplets join as two in one dream
sailing into paradise i call it

never lose sight of light
even as pearls of tears falling off your face
painted walls of torture and pain
silk and honey rubbed on your skin
to be scraped off by the tongue of the gods
enthralled as your master
if only to spare your agony
but you know
nothing exist between you and your dreams
promised of a gold filled tomorrow
now rest on your skills
blow and suck and let them lick your petals
ah if only you know you've been fooled
used and worn like those linens
now crumpled on your feet
how long will it be, when you realize
they will get away with these crimes
while you lay rotten, shamed and beaten
and no one heard of your screams
because their weapon and defense
is encrypted in our silence
the never ending game
afforded by money and fame
and as you lay weak and dying
you have become nothing
just a piece of a** bought and paid for
by these masters of evil
we call: the guardians of our lost souls.
if only you knew.

About this poem:
I was touched by the sad plights of our young souls caught in the abyss of prostitution.
I was reading Jeffrey Epstein and the many victims of his evil deeds.
It breaks my heart.
I titled it to signify the lies they promise to the victims and families when their first approach them.
I've seen a grim documentary presented by Demi Moore about their recruiting strategy in Asia especially Nepal, Philippines, etc.
Very sad.
Thanks all for your reads and comments if any.

Rivers of tears running
On the faded wool
Clutched on my shivering
Pale body, weakening
Ingrained with a malady
With no cure
Yet the reassuring hope
And lovely thought
Of my serene childhood
While's yet refuses to part
On the body that turns to dust
Like twisted limbs of my memories
Trying to reach and remold
The foundation of my youth
And as the counsel is cast
Upon the shores of eternity
While the fortress of my will
Is fading into oblivion
The anguish of DEATH escapes
One more time as I
Witness the birth of a new morn
If only to breath one more day..

My dearest love
When I'm in your arms
My hearts at home
When I look into your eyes
My heart melts
When were hand and hand
It's only you and me
You're a man who can bring me to my knees
I haven't felt a love like yours
I feel so safe
No other man could take your place
My sweetest skip
Know your in my blood
Your in my soul
Let this love story continue to unfold
All my love
Xx

Fear lies low,
As Love sighs upon us, as we gaze from atop the deep cliff,
"The water doesn't look that shallow",
For Darkness gave us wings as we soar for the sweet taste,
Inviting us down below,-
Such a sad thought condemned us to dream,
Punishing us to carry on,
Only left to ponder and dwell,
And to tell such a tale,--
Mischief Rules!,
Until one day Mischief met Compassion,
Yet, hard to understand each other,
Love stepped in, and decided to show the way,-
"What is now, here we both must understand",
"You're the ground that stays put",
I'm the sun, begins, shines, then starts to fade!".--
Love cries,
Watching the army led by Sorrow,
Face to face to meet Happiness,
On a once tropical, now wasted desert ground,-
Fear swept high,
Without knowing the knowledge that is kept secretly by Tomorrow,
Tomorrow steps to the side,
While it all goes down,--
During the battle of wits to win the war of emotions,
Sorrow and Happiness met at the war table,
"For the total of what we've lost",
"We must unite, and learn to rebuild again",-
Today said, "I think I know the answer?"
"What Yesterday lost, I know now!"-
"Tomorrow only keeps it a secret, leaving it up to you to decide",
"Is this a new beginning; or, will this be the end?"--
Life watches this through its mind's eye,
As the coldness of night falls upon us,
And we all know that the night is a gift from Darkness and Fear who walk hand and hand,
Only the reflection of the moon guides us by light,-
And just to glide quietly by shadow,
The orb quickly creeps away,
Of what Yesterday learned then, was given Today, yet still, kept a secret by Tomorrow,
And Love just smiled,--

About this poem:
This one was written 11-27-2021, just a few minutes before I wrote I Am No One. I'd consider this abstract freestyle writing. An introduction out of nothing and a conclusion into something, perhaps? Just to start off with some words and see where I can go with them! Although this is nothing but a rough draft, I hope you enjoy the meaningless, off the wall storyline! lol

Your wit and brilliance
Your sense of humor unhinged
You made us all laughed, cried
And even dance
Now you're gone
This place mourning in your absence
Could it be that there's a chance
You'll be back
Even just for a glance?
I know you knew we loved you
Adored and even venerated you
As a friend, brother, and perhaps
Even as a lover
Please remember you'll always be
In our hearts
You're not far away
Your writes, your lines
Will forever grace this place
We will always be near you.
We love you Cafe.
May you forever rest in peace.
