The Raging Deep~~~

I stand, facing the roaring deep
I stand, and get jolted from my petrified sleep
A most wonderful sight
A most phenomenal sight

Waves, unleashing their fury
Waves, battling, wild and free
Waves, tainted with all the shades of blue
Beautiful, accompanied by their foamy tattoo

It is almost as if those waves are angry
Angry, simply to be
Angry, for they know not why do they roar
Angry, wanting to be soothing, but having to move the seafloor

I stand, facing them,
And feel in their rage, my own mayhem
Yes, there, in front of me, does be a violent pandemonium
And there, inside of me, does be a similar fiery abysm

Waves, surrounding on all sides, my birthright
Waves, reminding me of the power of fate
Why, however rich and historical does be the past
Nothing, nothing about it does ever last

Such a powerful havoc
Wanting it seems, to give the shores a shock
Or, wanting to reach them, to die in their cliffs
Out of love, or just acting blindly, lost in its own grief

Pray, majestic are the waves as they keep crashing with determination
Here, in this world, we all do act out our duties
Even if we find no meaning in these docilities
For only in doing such, we shall all get our redemption

I stand, facing the roaring deep
Jolted, startled from my petrified sleep
Waves, tumultuous and fulminating
Waves, facing me, waves, in me, waves, all soul inspiring!

The Rule of Ego~~~

How pitiful
How sad
Desperate
Agonizing
To see the rule of Ego over human nature

Why, ego can break relationships
Ego can destroy lives
Ego can bring about regret
Causing one to cry in between closed walls
Causing one to wear a fake smile
While feeling one's heart break in millions of pieces

Ego, I say, is humanity's worst enemy
Pray, the human being does be filled with goodness
The human being does be made of virtue
After all, the human being has been made in God's image

But then, do you wonder why do parents end up all alone
Why do lovers forgive not each other
Why do siblings keep from each other, a cold distance
Why do friends suddenly turn into enemies
Why do neighbors misunderstand each other

Should you also wonder why has Love lost its merit
Why Hatred has won the final round
Why negativity abounds
Why values do be mocked
Why Ego smiles at its own reflection
Even if it does sit, all alone, in its room,
Faced with a twisted and lie weaving mirror


Pray, I am sure the Divine does look at us all with low spirits
After all, this world was made to be perfect
After all, Man was made to be its ruling God
But then, Ego stepped in
And established its rule!

How sad, indeed
To see the rule of Ego over human nature

Celebrating Love~~~

My Beloved laughed at me
Upon seeing my face, so lacking in glee
Why, to our love did we both not agree
Said He with a touch of loving mockery

Why do you put on such an angry face
Why do you be sorrow laden
It all does make you look pretty
But pray, remember that your heart do I hold in my embrace

Yes, I do know about that, it had been for me, an act worth a million
Worth more than Earth's gathered treasures
Worth more than Earth's delusional pleasures
It had been for me, an act which gave my life a reason

Which removed from my soul, all traces of affliction
Which was for me, more than a benediction
It had been for me, a show of love, love of the highest order
Love of such a kind that can never falter

Then, laughed my Beloved at me
Why put on a pout on your face, so pretty
Remember our secret love story
And do celebrate it, as long as you do breathe!

Of course, said I to the silent skies
Of course, love does be so beautiful
Love does be even more so when it is mystical
Love, indeed, my savior, the only thing being in world, so real!
