IT LINGERS

-
It won't leave,
because. . . it lingers:

Like the smell of good perfume
long into a hot humid sweaty day...

Like the scent of a gone lover
teasing nostrils, sketching thoughts yonder...

Like the first scene in sight
when a blind man receives sight...

Like that one whose face you spot in a crowd
and swear to search for the world around...

Like the last words of a loved one
echoing, resounding, never to be done...

Like mist on a chilly cold morning
stinging, like a thorny spirit hoovering...

Like memories etched in one's mind
replayed yet nobody else can hear it nor find...

Like the magic touch of a friend
impacting one's life knowing no end...

It won't leave
because...it still lingers.

SILENT PAIN

-
I ache to share the truth, That am not as strong as i seem, That my soul radiates no beem, That my heart is tattered and torn, That my days are filled with silent scorn, That my night are sad and sleepless, That my hands that held are weary and worn out, That my my back bleeds out, That my mind knows no peace, That my life is bleek with no bliss, That something is  going a miss, That you're gone without even a kiss.
