Ten Depressions

Been through ten depressions,
Overcame with One,
You!

You,
Picked me up,
Soothed the pain,
Stood by me,
Through thick and thin.

Backed me up,
Said i was right,
Gave me strength,
To walk on by.

Made me laugh,
Made me cry,
Made me long,
Made me high!

A glow in the dark,
A shadow with me,
A glimmer of hope,
A wind within me.

All came crashing,
One fine dawn,
Tone was the problem,
Couldn’t convince you at all.

Am back to square one,
Ten depressions,
Now, you Add,
One to All.

Flowers For You

Each day,
I sent A Flower,
In memory of a friendship that was bliss,
Not once I missed.

But they never go through,
Thus you never received,
The flowers that represent,
A Friendship Bliss.

Am I A Friend

Do you Know Me?
Am I A Friend?
I daren’t say,
Lest it may offend.


You inspire,
Precious are your words,
Though you may not know,
How I thirst.


I sought after you,
I had nothing to offer,
Just humble friendship,
Which’s all I hunger.


A brief stay,
Is all that you offer,
Too brief,
A shock for a loner


I shall miss you,
Trust you’ll change your mind,
May not today,
But someday I’ll find.

The Course of Life

Time or fate may separate friends, lovers,
But friendship or love that's true will ever
Thenceforth continue to live forever,
True love conquers the odd with its power.
As time passes by, things change with the time,
Every moment, hour, day, month, and year,
All things have their turn to change with the time,
Life, time, and events change with the years.
Everyone, everything, have a time and day,
A time to change, end, begin a new day,
Change is life, the course of life everyday,
All things change, and we change with them all days.
Only the Eternal one is constant,
All things in the universe, inconstant,
But despite it all, love is important,
The world may change, but true love is constant.

I wish to share this poem written by Merlin Archivilla with all readers. This poem touched my heart when one of my friends in this website decided to block me as she presumed that it was the best course of action she should come up with for my sake.

Let Live the Animals

They have life,
They are flesh and blood,
They have families,
They are just like you and me.

They feel pain,
They get hurt,
Though they can't say it,
The way we blurt.

Animals just look different,
They aren’t other,
Created by the same Creator,
We just are crueller.

We conquer,
We give them no space,
We do not compliment them,
As how our Creator said.

Know you people,
Creations of God,
Love other creatures,
Do not get them gnawed.

Your Calls

I got you a line,
Cause I need to know,
What happened today?
For I not know.

My legs don't take me,
To places, to go,
So you ought to tell me,
What I need to know.

That funny feeling,
When I know you're going to ring,
That funny feeling,
Yes! And you called.

Lonely, waiting,
Patiently staying,
Anticipating,
Hoping you would call.

Once on line,
We chat nonstop,
Time flies,
No cares, no stop.

Gossip some say,
Perhaps it is!
But when our two minds work,
In-depth it is.

Analyse we,
Happenings of the day,
Amuse at times,
Puzzled are we.

Sadness we share,
Joy we receive,
Goodness we give,
Glad to be friends.

At times you switch off,
A break is needed,
To rest the mind,
The soul and all.

If we should stop,
We know we would miss,
A never ending conversation,
That's forever bliss.

Fugitive

Run lady run,
Run for your life,
They're chasing you,
With spears and knives.

I saw you through,
The pain you endure,
Silently; too proud to show.

Educated are you,
Rational left you,
Emotions caught you,
For the sake of two.

Woman of culture,
Society is pain,
What others think matter,
You feel shame.

You hung on to a marriage,
That you knew wouldn't survive,
But tried so hard to keep it,
To be a good wife.

He was not worth it,
The world knew,
But . . .
You gave him chances,
He threw.

Now you're standing on the ledge,
Leap no,
Stay no,
Sleep no,
Rest no,
Work no,
There is nothing left, Oh No!

Family in ruin,
Friends in vain,
Children in longing,
Wishing you came.

No freedom art thou,
Conceal thy face,
Lest anyone lurk around,
Would recognize thy pace.

Run lady, run lady,
Flee for your life,
For someone's sin,
You sacrifice!

About this poem:
This poem is about my colleague who is now a fugitive. She has two toddlers. Her worthless husband who is too lazy to work had forged her signature and taken many loans from individuals. He had fled as he is unable to pay and left his wife as a ransom for his blood suckers.

Little Serena

Born 15 years ago,
Premature - palm sized,
You struggled to grow.

God gave you great parents,
Who never abandoned you,
They fed you tirelessly,
Although you could not swallow.

Now you watch in silence,
No words are said,
You just make sounds,
Unintelligible to the human head.

Not that you are stupid,
Not that you have no feelings,
Just you, Serena, watching,
Watching everyone, some wicked.

I suppose God sent you here for a purpose,
You must be a lesson we should all learn,
You persevere no matter what,
When we all give up so soon here.

Serena, Baby Serena,
You shall remain a baby forever.

About this poem:
This poem is dedicated to my niece who has down syndrome. When I heard of the premature delivery, I lost my way to the hospital. I was obviously upset. And now, just plain sad.
