Shield Wolf

I must protect...

Listen

,


Ah, the time does not permit to tell how I feel
If you could see what seems so transparent to me
So obvious like trembling knees
So pure like white sheets
Think I’ll hold back from saying and song
Look the other way around
Yet my heart burns away tonight, alone
When I am gone, do you think of me?
Wherever you are I pray for thee
Smile at things you once said
Get the naughty thoughts out my head!
Make self control my dear friend
And if we fall out I’m a dead man
Cause the way you look
Just the way you are
Defines what a woman should be
Something like Eve without the greed
A “good wife”, yes the dream come to life
New like colour to once blind eyes
Tension set emeralds with princess cuts shine
A heart channel set toward you
Rightfully jealous for what is mine
Just say those words & I’ll fight!
Just say those words, thus make me believe
You will seek no other forever
Forgive me darling, my ways are crude
It’s not my fault, I speak truth
In me find no room for deceit
No clever lies to win your hand
Hope I’m enough and then some
True lovers were friends – they became one
Still I seem to build castles in sand
At the end of an aisle that stretches for miles
No time to be graceful; Run!
See me for who I am
Know that you’re the reason I’ve waited this long.

Trance

,



Cello strings sing their tune.
The Moon and I listen.
Taken somewhere distant, new
Spend my time in mid-heaven.

Soaring through the northern sky
Aurora I’ll find you
Pleasure taken in subtle shades
Teal, Orange and blue

Set out to land in the country
Walk to fields in the dead of night
Watch the stars on top of a hill
And ask them why they gleam.

Words are inadequate at a time like this.
Do come quickly my friend.
Ambience is near perfect, yes
Thus take a guess at who I’m missing.

Kudasai

,


Come near.... I'll let you in
Just ask why I love you.... and words will sing
Wait for me… for I’m all ready yours
Be mine… at my side
Dream of me… kudasai
Lift these emotions off the floor

Haven’t told anyone what I’ll tell you now.
Saved many endearing words and sound
…these hundreds of thousands of hours
Through sun and April showers
My suitors I let pass me by
And only you now… could satisfy

Don’t say I won’t understand
Teach me how to please your heart
Our continents do drift apart
Yet if you love me you’ll find wings
Find time away from mundane things
Sail the seas to hold my hand

You make me believe once again
In love that I twice gave up on
I remember the rush
And betrayed trust
Now you alone can come to my aid

About That Time

,


About that time again
Free falling for you
This one like last
“Nice… but no thanks.”

How long I’ve been waiting?
Waiting for Something
Yeah, waiting for Nothing
Waiting for her that made other plans

I tried my best
Just can’t hold her mind
What do I say…
To make her mine?

Off making a living
Yet not living life
Why waste time praying?
Free Will takes flight.

Now kindly remind…
Remind me to forget
Such a memorable face
So I’ll live again

This Desert may claim me
For unwittingly I walk
A mirage my destiny
Lost…

Hope...less

, ,


Many Silver Medals I own
Still, never wished to be first
Yet in this, I wanted all
Now that I’ve seen, I crave gold

The very waters that keep one alive
The very waters that drown
Glass hearts shouldn’t hope
No my son….. don’t

You are agreeable to my soul
Though I’m not worthy to ask of yours
You may think I have no designs
Little do you know

Am I content to be alone?
You have much to learn.
Walking streets that lead somewhere
And I am never Home.

Loyal Love

,


If loyalty were wealth I’d have house & land
Set you in my palace
For my eyes spend their infinite treasures
They adorn you in opulence.

“Have an affair with the wife of my youth”
My thoughts are proof of faithfulness
Need not ensure love would linger
Your smile the Sun I orbit

Mirrors reflect pristine beauty
So too, actions mirror virtue
No choice but to fall, I saw it coming
One couldn’t resist, should you offer

Something inside is set afire
With arson my heart charges you
Turn yourself in, rest from travels
Secure my affections… soon.

Discover

, , , ...

























A Groom wonders what secrets she hides
What gems of beauty lay untouched
He has chosen and loves her this much
For curious minds must satisfy thought.

Esoteric yet rewarding pastime
Determined to discover more
Lavender layers bathed in moonlight
Time will decipher the artist’s code.

Through colours and shape her world unfolds
Hopes and fears of his Bride
He listens & speaks comforting words
She falls asleep on his shoulder.

Between dreams and wake,
She says, “Will you stay?
Love me as I grow older?”
He softly replies, “With mysteries solved,
…you will always be my possession.”

My Malaysian

, ,


























Distance is the evil between yearning hearts
Time… Many knives that tear it through
Circumstance the ocean,
That swallows emotion
It makes one forget the songs once sang.

My Malaysian
In visions I’ve seen you
I’ll hurt till reality cedes us a place
I’ll sing so I remember that beautiful face.
Plot a course through the Indian Ocean.

When the seas disturb themselves for no apparent reason
And one lights flickers offshore
Turn your attention to my affections.
I am coming to you from afar.

Dine with Me

, , , ...














Come dine at my restaurant
Table for two.
I'm waiter & lover.
Owner of your heart

Take what you will from my menu.

Your pleasure is my business
I perceive what you want.
In you I take interest.
Come here you shall,

We'll cook up a storm.

350 degrees and a few hours later
It takes a while to create perfection.
Now take a minute… meaningful reflection.
Connoisseurs allow time to savour

A recipe too long to write on paper
Those lips of yours… my favourite flavour
Step into the fire – do come closer.
Here's to us, dining forever.

I Have Not

, , , ...


I have not wife or 'precious gifts'
I wonder when and if I will
I am the book being judged
No one opens, no one comes.

Take your leave, run, run.
Before you hope in false thoughts.
I place the ball in your court
Practical thinking kills romance.
Few do boast those piercing eyes
No, just one… every once in a while.

Your face changes every few months
Inner beauty varies, true
Decisive action taken, none
With my burdens I won’t trouble you.

My darling “seek and you will find”
Someone else worth your time…
…who will take care of you until winter
Yet not with summer love like mine.
