WAR OF THE CLOUDS
=================
The clouds make war on all below
As they let loose with liquid ammo
To stir the rivers, gullies, streams
To action, war, against the beams
That rise from the soil, blocking the sun,
Natural, man-made, it matters none.
The waters hear, and give reply
By rushing hard and rising high,
Crashing like unstoppable forces
Testing their strength against the voices
That cry Stand firm, foundation's safe,
Until it goes to an early grave.
The soil stands fast, but not for long,
As it runs down its path ere long.
The rocks remain, though shifting fast,
The trees stripped bare, their strength now past;
Till ruin marks
HOLLOW DREAMS
=============
My hopes and dreams for life and living
Turned out to be hollow fantasies.
Now, I only fulfill the hopes others have,
Yet I will never fulfill my own.
My past romances have turned to dust
And future romances are uncertain.
Past friendships included treacherous ones
For me to suffer and disown.
True friends disappear, never to return,
And enemies remain like a pestilence;
Booing and mocking, berating and beating
Until in dead dreams I finally drown.
UNKNOWN
=======
My family sees me as "the young one."
My friends see me as "the studious one."
My superiors see me as "the ambitious one."
But who am I?
In my country, I am a citizen.
In this world, I am a human.
In God's eyes, I am His child.
But who am I?
Am I a lost soul begging to be found?
A wanderer searching for a faraway goal?
Just another cloud up in the sky?
Who am I?
I am a person, an individual.
I am everything I choose to be.
Strong-willed, I strive toward my goal.
That is who I am.
A friend, a comforter, a lover,
Compassionate, understanding, true.
In my hands, I hold the gift of comfort...
...that is who I am.

LOVE
====
What is love?
Love is when you give me a hug
Without needing a reason.
Love is when I give you a bouquet
For every season.
Love is the beauty of oncoming dawn;
It does not treat you like a pawn.
It's when we treat our fellow man
With trust and courtesy so grand.
With love between us, you and me,
What a better place our world could be!
EYES OF THE HEART
=================
The eyes of the heart are upon you.
They sense your anguish, your deep longing.
They can tell your deep desire
For comfort, companionship and truth.
The eyes of the heart can see you.
As sweet incense, they guide your soul;
Until your heart's journey ends at last
And the seeds of your love take root.
