Fateful

26 Apr 2021 1 minute read 0 comments emily2u

Lying awake this wintry night,Sleep eludes me.My heart feels light,Thinking of my trip out to sea.We were on a sailing boat,Was already late.I forgot to take along my coat,It was pure fate.Just the start of winter,Temperature was low.From the galley,...

Joy

Joy isn’t easily understood,For it’s indefinable.Not many have it this good,So, it’s excusable.You’re the one manWho gives me this sensation.Why is it that only you can,Requires no investigation.Never known joyBefore you existed,Filling me with delig...

Duck Race

At the park,People are watchingA swift brown duck,Which is set on winning.The hundred-meter duck race,Is in progress in the pond.Other partakers with the same faceLook bored, about to yawn.The first prize of a grand,Makes the owners full of eagerness...

New Generation

We’re the new generation,Men and women of the cyber age.Modern technology is no fiction,Internet presence, all the rage. With a click of the mouse,Our toughest questions are answered,In the comfort of our house ---Who knows we aren’t wearing a shirt?...

Homecoming

Stepping out from the elevator,Entered a door.Came into this apartment,On the 42nd floor.The cool interior,Immaculately furnished,Ornamented tastefully,Furniture just been polished.The setup is inviting,Curtains are expensive lace,Everything is spotl...

Love Unreciprocated

It’s time you realize we’re over,Useless to let affairs remain in cover.Today, this issue must be settled,Since the sleeping dog is rattled.I’ve had enough of your ways,Tired of stormy days.A dozen years we’ve been a pair,Your temper, had more than m...

If Only

If I were born thirty years earlier,I’d be the happiest person,For I’m certain our paths would cross,And we’d have the most amazing time.If only I could turn back time for you,You’d be about my age.There won’t be this generation gap,We’d not disagree...

Sorceress

You didn't know,I’m lodged onto you.Now read my lips,You’re mine for keeps. I’m unimportant,But my love potion is potent.I’m not a ball in soccer,Rather, a lady sorcerer.Your heart is in my palm,Though it’ll not be harmed.Follow my instruction,To be...

Tower of Strength

Your voice is music to my ears,Drives away all fears.Soothes me, seemingly tireless,When I am restless.Now and again I give trouble,Yet, you don’t grumble.Stand by me in all I do,When I’m sad, you’re here too.You lift me up from my falls,Help me over...

I appreciate such treatmentFrom true gentlemen,Though there’s no satisfaction,Through your utter devotion.You’re clever in puttingAll at ease with your chatting.You’re on stage, the main actor,While I’m only another character.I know what you’re after...
