Oh no its February, the dreaded love month, LOL. The world is once again carpeted with shades of red, not only because of the so-called celebration of love but as well as with the Chinese New Year festivities. Love and luck should go hand in hand in some cases, hmm, for people like me. Haha! Just kidding of course.
This month, I will be celebrating the season with my friends and officemates. I have no choice as I am very much single at this particular time. LOL! Oh, but it’s a working day so perhaps I better focus my attention to my job. Haha!
Of course, I’ve been in love. Until now, I still know the said feeling, its just I don’t know whom I am going to share it in the future. Cupid must be very busy scouting and matchmaking other people and he forgets to find one for me. Well, I take any left-over. Hehe.
Here’s how I summarized my feelings when I am in love. See, my heart doesn’t only feel, read on.
Senses of My Heart
sees the beauty beyond
twilights and dawns;
stares through the magic
of aurora borealis
hears the whispers
of waterfalls to the rivers;
listens to the duets
of midnight bats and owls
tastes the honeyed rain
and the syrupy wind;
savors the twang
of a melancholic ocean
smells the scent of clouds
and the musk of sandcastles;
inhales the aroma of the night
enchanting, refreshing
touches the skin of a volcano
warmth and longing;
feels the tremors of your heart
until it spews out my name
(Can’t think of a better way to end this blog. Poor me!)

ReplyDeleteI loved the second stanza, especially the bats and owls.
ReplyDeleteTake time to love yourself this month; if you set the standard of what you deserve, you'll never settle for less than that from a relationship.

ReplyDeleteYour poem succeed to express what's inside your heart, the words succeed to make your sentiments tangible to the mind's senses and made your voice heard through the lovely imagery they create in the mind.
Keep on believing, fate will lead you to the place where the other half of your heart awaits.
