They tell me
Be wise
Choose wealth
Lest you lose
The diamonds
That lie in wait
I choose HIM
Who has a bounty
Of love
That is beyond gems
They tell me
Be wise
Choose intellect
Lest you lose
The lessons
That minds store
I choose HIM
Who has wisdom
Of life
That is beyond libraries
They tell me
Be wise
Choose sturdy
Lest you lose
The shield
That fortresses hold
I choose HIM
Who has steel
In his blood stream
That is beyond concrete
I choose HIM
Not for riches
Of the mortals
I choose HIM
For love
For a life
Whose glimpse
I got
Through HIS eyes
I choose HIM
For love
For a life
I understand not
The riches and the shields
I knows only the love that has nurtured and healed

Locks falling over her shoulder
Could shame the night
Unrestrained she would smile
To startle even the Balsams
Unspoken words through those eyes
Could flatter her admirers
That was the true her
Hiding behind the crazy mess
That the world saw of her
She cared not
For what they thought
She was a free spirit
That lived to love

The seat besides is left for you
For you to fill in the space
The guitar too lies in wait
For you to make some rhythm
The window is kept open
For your glimpse
The tea cup lies where you left it last
For you to sip the fresh brew
The sleeves are not folded
For you to come and roll them up
Just as you always did
Come and sit by me
Pick up the guitar and play the music
Show me a glimpse of yourself as I wait by the window
And have some tea to raise a toast
Come and fill the space....

The bricks are in place
To raise the wall
All eyes gazing
To lay bare our love
The bushes have been trimmed
To clear off the haven
The roads have been widened
To create distances
They drag us in opposites
To tear us apart
Yet I worry not
We had scaled inhibitions
To make our love fearless
To be together
Why should the walls or the gaze
Scare me or Scare you
I worry not
I worry not
I smile at the world
The futility
That drives it to rip our souls
I worry not
I worry not
But smile

"I would like to talk with you, laugh with you, argue with you, debate with you, eat with you, and I would like to be separate from you, and do my things, and I would like you to be separate from me, and like oxygen is to fire, space is to our hunger for one another.
I would like it to work, or not to work—if it works, that is love. If it runs out, it is not. For love is not a thing, it is not merely the present moment—love is a string of a thousand present moments—love is an un-ending string of Christmas lights, powered by the Sun itself.
If our love runs out, you shall find another, I am sure of it. If our love runs out, I shall love again. There is love and there is love, so perhaps love is not the question. Perhaps the question is time."

Where all do I erase you from
From the memories that keep haunting
From the songs that you hum in my soul
From the strings of guitar that you played
From the park bench where you held my hand
From the branches which brought us close
From the riverside where we love struck us first
From the road where I would run to you
From the sketches which you filled in with colors
From the flowers inside the pages that still smell of you
From the walls where we etched our love
From the rainbow that smiled at soaked us after the rain
From the telephone which would whisper you to me
Where all do I erase you from
Where all do I erase you from....
