Freedom

A million hopes I envisage,

A thousand dreams I sketch,

Boundless and limitless in my heart

Spontaneous optimisms I etch.

 

Across the briny blue ocean,

I sail at will, no charts to guide,

To lands that pirates don’t dare,

Sails and squalls, I no longer abide. 

 

Unchained melody of my heart,

I sing with absolute informality,

Neither notes, nor timbres to follow,

Carefree of any crude mockery.

 

Lost in my lover’s sweet caress

I free my restrained passions

Love rhythms creating pure music,

Liberating my flimsy moral conscience.

 

Like the breeze wafting with ease,

I float across without strife,

As free as the spirits of Eden,

Away from the circle of life.

 

Spirit of the River

She is mystery unfathomable,

Deep, intense and surreptitious,

Sweeping past the deep ravines,

A legend that is mysterious.

 

Gracefully strolling like a nymph,

She is an enchantress of repute,

Creating magic with her voice,

Weaving thoughts deeply astute.

 

A timid yet tumultuous disposition,

She knows not what fear is

Braving the mighty mistrals,

She sails unscathed with ease.

 

Pure as the morning dew,

She is the spirit of happiness,

A friend of solitary hearts,

She’s the soul of liveliness.

Passion

Candid moments of love,

Creating waves of passion,

Crashed in the shores of my heart,

Sending ripples of obsession.

 

Feelings of untainted lust,

Like lightning struck deep within,

Stirring my wildest emotions,

Evoking my ravenous longing.

 

Insaned by wild fancies,

I stand before thee, unguarded

Lost in your deep eyes,

My soul to your will subjected.
