While You Were Away

You crossed my mind the entire day
As I struggled to send you away
I let your thought, my love, to stay
How could I resist any way

I missed your smile however shy
That you offer without even a try
I would smile not knowing why
As your fantasy lead me astray

I missed the soft and tender giggle
Often in blankets and the night is middle
That made my heart feels so feeble
As I missed your goodnight tickle

I missed the misses and kisses
That shatters my heart to pieces
And our own private fantasies
The meaning in meaningless ellipsis

I missed the daily revelation
Of a heart full of admiration
The promise of continuation
Despite obvious separation

I missed the sweet hearts and honey
The salute that sooths my soul
The cares in the word dear
That makes me shed a tear

I missed you my dear ...
From my mind you did not depart
For no distance or wall can separate
That which is joined at heart

I missed you honey...

Better than a thousand...

Seeing you once
Is better than seeing a thousand photos

One touch, one hug
Is far much better than a thousand wishes...

Just one word from your lips
Surpasses a thousand messages or an hour on the phone...

Goodnight Sweetheart..

Goodnight sweetheart
I hope the angel of dreams favours us tonight
To gift us a date in our dream world...

This Distance is killing me...

Even without you knowing
Someone misses you

Even when it is not night
Someone dreams about you

Even when you are not around
Someone smiles because of you

And when you are silent
Someone still hears and hangs
On each and every word from your heart...

Distance and Time

It is amazing,
How I still hear your voice
Long after you stopped talking

How I still see you in your beauty
Long after you have disappeared

How I still feel your touch
Long after you have left my arm...

Truly, distance and time
Can never separate two hearts
That love has brought together...

Together Forever

I have kept you safe in my heart
For as long as I am,
It will never stop beating
And you will remain there forever

And I have kept the heart pure
So that when it stops beating
You and I will be safe
Together and forever in heaven...

Happy Birthday Corazon

Happy birthday Corazon
On this new and beautiful dawn
How fast time has flown
And how pretty you have grown

Don't let them say you are old
Smile and show them how bold
Time and events have turned
The once little and crying child

The now inner and stronger might
That knows when and how to fight
And dares not think of flight
Even in the dead of the night

Take on to the higher sky
Like an eagle dare to fly
Let the days not waste by
To later regret and cry

My wish is happiness and strength
Full life with every new breath
Until you hit that twenty forth
The year of the Lord, Twenty thirteenth

Happy birthday Cullen Corazon MJ

It allover

I saw a sparkle in your smile

As you held it a little while

The thought, a lovely dwell

And in the heart, a private swell

The eyes caught the flame

To the heart, a revealing frame

A magic nature cannot tame

And it will never be the same

A desire sent over text

And never expression of desire

The little things you admire

Like a fire that will never expire

A never ending conversation

Of two hearts in union

Separate only in location

Glued by affection

And the longest good bye ever

Like souls on a permanent tether

That long to hang on forever

But fate sets asunder

And how you break to a sigh

When the passion is so high

And you never struggle or try

Yet it is so pure

Is there another love this pure

With all signs so clear

Because of this I am sure

And will proclaim without fear

Where Art Thou

I get lonely and lost

My being feels like waste

I search for that one thought

Where my soul will find rest

But you never came to mind

I Peruse memories of the past

Glorious hours of the night

Words I will never forget

Or joy I will never again get

But none has your tag

I set my heart to wonder alone

And find a place to belong

A heart worthy of its throne

A Place to call a home

But it did return barren

I search for a well of no thirst

A shade when the sun is hot

In a green valley devoid of dust

That inspires my every quest

In none were you present

Future flashes years ahead

When all fantasies will be dead

I will be all weak nearing the end

And can’t see you beside my bed

Are you real or just a dream

A mirage or pure stream

How dare you lay claim

To a heart you cannot tame

Was it just a dream?

I thought I felt a touch

A tender and familiar trace

Surely headed for the right place

That brought my heart to a near pause

Wasn’t that your melodious voice

As calm as it always is

Singing the litany of our love

As sweet as it first was

What of that bliss of breath

Behind my ear in a soft sigh

An awe wrapped in emotion

And laden with pure passion

Wasn’t that the twinkle of your eye

Peeping through my midnight window

Hiding behind that crescent moon

And an army of night stars

May be it was just a dream!

Inside your eyes

# Sometimes I drown in the imaginations of our love, 

and deliberately choose not to call for help.

# Looking in to your eyes lets me see what is in your heart,

 it is the only moment I have the whole of you to myself.

If only for a minute

The joy of seeing you and being with you even for a minute

 overcomes all the pain of knowing that your heart does not belong to me.

Palace of love

Inside you is a heart the never struggles to shine, 

to be radiant or to smile. 

It is a palace that even kings would be jealous of. 

That is what calls me even in my dreams.

Unfair life..

# In my dreams you are mine, 

only that life has been too unfair to give you to me…

# You are worth all the pain love can inflict…

# A smile would mean more to me than my last breath…

# I smile at the thought of having you, even though it’s only in my imaginations…

# I only regret the fact that I came to your life too late, but never the fact that I loved you…

# Having you in my dreams or in reality feels like the only thing I will ever desire in life….

Giving up on love

I looked at you and saw a beauty I have never seen, 

a smile from the depth of your heart, joy so natural…

 then I realized, if that has to last,

 I have to let your heart go to where it belongs…

If i say i love you

If I say I love you, you will deny

If I say I don’t, you will cry,

So let me not try,

I will wait for time to pass by

And love to take us away…

Special

# You do not have to say it in words…

Ours is a special feeling that even love can never afford

# I sometimes hate myself for missing you this much 

and you for assuming that I don't…

# You are a rose that thrives even in wild bushes

 without the need for approval from anyone…

# Sleep my angel, sleep

 and let dreams take you away, 

you remain special to me

 in dreams and in reality.

Pure love

Shed the tears if they come from the heart

Don’t even smile if it’s only on the lips

Let me love your heart, not your face…

Thought of you

# The thought of you lulls me to sleep in the night 

and taps me to wake up in the morning…

# I lie down with a smile in the night because of you,

 and still find it intact when in the morning…

# I would give you my life, 

never to be away from you, 

even for a minute…

Sincere love

Tell me when it hurts,

Tell me when you feel unloved,

Tell me when I ignore you

And seem to push you away…

Because that is the depth of our love.

A beautiful thought

You are such a beautiful thought…

Whenever you come around,

I helplessly hold on to it, if only you would stay, a minute longer…

Transformational fears…

When I first saw you, I was nervous to look at you,

When I had the chance, I was not sure whether to come near you,

When I did, I was afraid of talking to you

All that is behind us…

Now I am only afraid of losing you…

A goodnight…

Wishing you a good night only changes the venue of our date, as we relocate to our sacred dream world…

Unending love conversation…

Our conversations continue in our dreams

And they are as juicy as in reality…

Boundless love…

My heart can hear your silent whispers…

See the smile in total darkness…

Feel the warmth when it freezes

And the closeness despite the distance …

When he/she can read from your heart…

I take joy in reading what is in our heart,

Because yours and mine have learnt to live as one,

And to harbor no secrets…

Reassuring love…

It’s not all darkness, one star is shining just for you,

It’s not all silent, one soul is calling out for you,

It’s not all still, one heart is beating for you

It’s not all dreams, someone is thinking about you,

And when it is cold and lonely,

Some warm hands are waiting with a hug …

Sneaky Soul

You slipped into the cave I own

Like a lioness coming home

Didn’t even smell the beckon

If the palace had its queen

No question was raised

Or cautious suspicion aroused

Not a soul was displaced

And none was displeased

Effortlessly took over the chat

Like a continuation of the past

A perfect match for the part

A natural choice for the act

Fantasy started steaming

An act straight out of dreaming

Helpless roller costar no stopping

Both confusing and convincing

What stopped you on your tracks

Is it the heart faint with cracks

Or the echoing emptiness that croaks

Expired stocks off the racks

Are you flesh or just ideas

Do I listen or ignore my fears

If I let time turn to years

Will it dry or drain the tears

My Wish

My Wish
by bellpt



I wish you missed me
I wish in the dark recess of your guarded heart you felt me there
and in some small corner of your sedulous mind,
the thought of me tickled your memory and made you smile

I wish that somewhere in your soul you felt the longing
For the tender touch we once shared
I wish that in deep darkness of the night
You remembered my breath against your skin
and realized you longed for me next to you
I wish as the stars in the heavens twinkle over you

You saw in them the sparkle you put in my eyes
I wish the sound of my voice would invoke such a longing
You could no longer resist.
I wish the words from your lips that once kissed me
So sweetly
would express the tender passion that your kisses implied

I wish you could see into the abyss of my heart
Realizing the immeasurable depth of my love
For you
But I may as well wish for the man in the moon
For this yearning for you is about as attainable
As wishing for him…..

But, still I miss you
and my greatest wish is that you felt the same
and then all of my wishes would come true

Sons' Suns Now Done

The sons have had their run
Their wheels stopped to turn
Gone never to return
To the city old hymns sung
Old Njenga, Karume's son
N Michuki, Christined John

In age their stars still shone
And endeavors of youth shown
Gave to the last breath and bone
Off they rode days between
Its a pair paired in vein
Like one was the others' twin

Watch how they spread their throne
And masses their way drawn
Little by little empires grown
Pressing patience the balloons blown
Decoration medals their live tune

Never pretentious was his tongue
And ruthless his venomous fang
But every wall his portrait hung
His turns are in litany sung
The metal that was John
On Nairobi River almost swam

And he of Karumes' gene
With an eye for a charcoals shine
Ain't gold after all carbon?
Let's escape the prisons within
It's not really where we begin
Just gather the strength to win

The young got a boost to begin
To the old they are king
To be is all but brain
And to toil your hands train
The truth of pain in gain
Whose absence none would've been

My moan takes a new turn
For heroes with suns done
Torturous days bravely Bourne
A legacy self-cast on stone
Rest in Peace Njenga Karume
Rest in Peace John Michuki

WAKE ME UP

Cry Aloysius baby cry
Stir nights in calm in pretence
Call till to thy help I come
Loud enough to drown my dream

Wake when the hope’s dwindling
Of a tomorrow shinning and twinkly
Remind me of dreams fading
And others out of steam and halting

Wake me to love one and all
For what path did you follow?
Your tiny entire in my hand to hold
Your world behold and behold the world

Wake me to virtue of tongue
And of act no matter the turn
And in darkness if raid my weakness
Let your cry affirm my strength

Wake me up at night’s noon
The moon be full or all blue
That a better dawn I must present
When the sun shutters the horizon East

Loy, call me to dream
To fly high on jet stream
To always seek that cream
Should I falter, if you have to scream!

Wake the best before I rest
To lax living forever detest
I f only to keep that smile
For the time this earth you dwell

Amid the turmoil you lie so silent
No bang to loud your dream to cut
For Mom is there and so is daddy
They’ll hand it, thy soul is well

Cry Loy cry my Loy
Wake in me a father’s joy
Let my arms lock till you lie
Roar oh Loy, roar with joy
