October 12, 2001- The day my heart took a hit


I could tell you
I hate you,
but it will not 
change a thing.
I could ask you
what made you
betray me,
but I'll never know.

I wonder
with reckless abandon
and the brew
of immeasurable pain
why you
had to steal
the ray of sunshine
that lit our lives
with happiness.

How I wish
you knew
the essence
of the beautiful smile
that will never be seen.

How i wish you knew
the beautiful
sons and daughters
that you cut their dreams
before it could take shape.

How I wish you knew
the loving husband
that you denied the privilege
to feel the love
and warmth
of a beautiful wife.

I wonder why
you didn't
delay her
and make her
miss her appointment
on the flight
that will make
her fragile heart
take flight.

You fed her
to the wolves
of a reckless driver
who knew not
how privileged
he was
to have


royalty in his bus.


He toyed with you
and your gentle spirit
could not bare it.
I don't blame you
but I blame
the world
for denying herself
the rarity of an angel.

Just so you know,
my heart
weeps no more.
sixteen years later,
I refuse
to wallow in tears
for you imprinted
in our minds
the image of a smile
which lasts a lifetime.
I can't believe it
that you have
lived forever
in my heart
for 192 months
and 140,160 minutes.

Keep living 
beautiful angel
in all the space
you can fill
in our hearts
for you are a treasure
long gone
but forever remembered.

Poetry:The Altar of Matrimony

I have waited,  I have really waited For many days and nights Through many sunrise and sunsets  That I have lost pace with. I have always wondered And found myself lost In the world of my thoughts I have been shamed I have been mocked I have been chided All because I chose To wait for you And dance to the rhythm That we have been instructed. This day Seemed never to arrive Out of impatience People have broken themselves Into different souls And meshed with different bodies. I am so proud I waited for you I am so proud I am not a coward For pinning values on you That I refuse myself. This night We will teach ourselves The rhythm of love And move at our own pace Tonight I see not used good But a beautiful treasure. I see not an art in a hurry to act but an art whose beauty ages  like a fine wine. Ton...
