His companion of the moment…
©copyright2013owpp
He sat very still… as still as the lizard on its
Branch melting in the landscape, adopting the tones
Of the scorched earth surrounding him.
Lost in a desert of thoughts, his emotions adrift…
He wished he could stay in that same position forever.
Lose all notion of his past, future, live as motionless
And inert as his companion of the moment.
distances…
This poem was inspired by the disadvantages of distances separating us from…
Our most prized
——————–
The need, the warmth
Living so far apart
Precious time wasted
Each preoccupied
With their lives
Working day in
Day out, slipping
Into the bed of
A satisfying day
Yet nostalgia
Seeping…
———
Stealing eventually
Into a few suitcases
Memories and laughter
Till it bursts so we
Will not go missing…
Wait, count the months,
Days… To cozen distance (1)
Bargain again
And pack a rod
Of love from
Our most prized…

A present
A memory
Tears, laughter
So much
So little
You say.
So strong
The fear
Of abandonment
Yours, my own
Emotions
Taking us
To a point
Of no return
Of ridicule
Contempt
So, I write.
My quill
My intermediate,
Unveils
My pride.
Makes you
Listen without
Causing a
Flurry
I have your
Warrant
To what appears
A pink cloud
Protraction of
Our affinity
Staging a few
More moments
Of grace
A pause in
The vastness
Of cosmos.
A confidant
Accomplice
Comate
All the facets
Of what we had
Obverse yet,
Unabridged.

Those in need
—————-
Moment of subaqueous
Distress you lift your
Eyes with conviction
Of being heard.
Vigor in double amount
To care for those
In need, give them
A sanctuary
Sooth their wounds
Heal their souls
Iron the crinkled folds
Of their shredded lives
Strength for others
Not your own.
When nothing is left
Besides throes, regrets
For those you cannot
Cushion anymore.
Love aches
Debilitating situation
Is it miscalculation,
The best of the worst?
Simple becomes complicated
Pensile questions
Dull throb.
Let the waves wash
Over, cleans your
Spirit, make things
Right, coach you.
Give you dexterity
For greatness.
Merit and prerogative.
Conveyance and guidance
For the suffering
Promise to hold them
Tight and love
Forever and ever.
To subsume, aver
The love you have…
For you.

All our wishes
—————
Beautiful person
Warm and sincere
Accomplishing
Your dreams
Fame, beauty, furs
Very little for you
Dear to all the hearts
Paroxysm of fervor
Your ardent request
To be reciprocated
Your hunger for more…
Adulation and worship
Your yearning became
Your weakness, zeal
Turned to hostility
Love broke to fragments
Limited, sectional, separatist
Erratic condemnation
Supercilious and arbitrary
All gone in a moment of conceit
What you thought was
A Bona fide to another
Was plain arrant disaster
To what was dear to our hearts
Yet, we wish you
With all humanity
To come back,
As compunctious as can be
With renewed awareness
Tolerant and receptive
Nonjudgmental
To its supreme
To fulfill your dreams
Not of fame or beauty
Your request, hunger
For what is dear to…
Our understanding.

He turns
In despair
Facing the sky
Not knowing why
Asking for,
Intelligence
To read
The signals
Take care
Rest his soul
Abandon
The fear
Control
The changes
The unknown
Till where
How far
It will go
Understand
The wandering
Misunderstand
What appears
To be evil
Lose harshness
To the abyss
Love with
His heart
Not blabber
Tell them, listen
Validate
His own.
Erasing
Invalidity
Wanting
The energy
Long forgotten
Sucked
In a porthole.
Concentrate
On the finer
Larger, fitter
Worthier.
Feeling
Those moments
Those things
That come back
As delicate
As a blow
Of the wind
On his face.
The shivers
Along his spine
The burning
A clean slate.
Consigned
To oblivion
Dismissed
From his mind
A loss of
Consciousness
Obliterated
From his percipience.
Time, the father
Of wisdom
He lets it
Run its course.
Normalcy
His lease.
Prayer in his heart
Straight to the
First pages
Of his book
Of patience
Toward his life.
Need him
Need them
Family, friends
Children encompassing
Their love, his love.
Circumvent
The laws, accepting…
