hindi pala ikaw

hindi pala ikaw
ang itinadhana ng langit...
wala ka sa disenyo ng kosmos
na nagtatahi sa akin sa malaking
lambat ng buhay

ngunit dadaan ka na parang bulalakaw
na mainit at lalamig...
isang pangarap na matatapos
sa isang iglap
ngunit nagbigay ningning na panandalian

hindi ikaw ang naghihintay sa dulo ng daan
pero kailangan kong likuan…
gusto kong huminto at masilayan
ang nakakapukaw na misteryo
ng iyong pagpapakita

malinaw na hindi ikaw...
pero mananatiling ikaw hanggang sa
hayaan ng panahon na limutin kita…

A Dream for Noone.

Shared to me by Iceman

That calmness,

Your shoulder.

That solace,

Your lips.

Begins and ends.

Shades of rogue,

Follow my slumber.

Awakens.

Disrupts.

Beguiles.

Gentle kisses of a faint

Breeze,

Feel my face.

And

Embrace the fibers beneath.

Transcendence

Leaps beyond itself,

Finding nothingness

In your arms.

Memories of fancy

Like a gentle drizzle,

Caress the scalp,

Beneath the waves.

Circumscribe me.

Envelop me.

Possess me.

Then go.

The ambiguity

Of ashes fluttering

Near the embers

And the stars.

Leap!

My love

Let go.

Surrender.

Purple clouds,

Hazy, misty.

Erupts.

Disappears.

Sometimes I see

Window panes

With faces.

Sometimes.

Everywhere,

Autumn recedes,

And I seek it,

Tomorrow.

Love.

Then leave.

Your trace I seek

No more.
