SHADOWS

 There were these shadows that caught my eye

They seemed to be parting, and I wondered why


Soon I attended to them closely

And I was certainly able to see


There was this black lady with her black man

She was approaching him, as far away from her, he ran


For as the hand of a clock

He couldn't help but walk


For beauty is always ahead of time

That's exactly the pattern which she could mime


For there's no other fate of beauty than the beast

Soon I could see the light, upon her darkness, to feast


The clock abruptly lost functionality

The black man could retain his conscious’ centrality


He glanced ahead of time, only to see his night consumed by the light

For the ignition of his life turned into reverse twilight


I could tell that the black man ran no more

His shadow was incomplete, as the emptiness did bore


So long after that, the shadow finally collapsed

There was an unspoken, yet confirmed hope for their return after an elapse

ONLY IF THEY'RE HAPPY TEARS

 The night calls me by my name, yet I mistook it for the dark Burried under the sheets, Scared, praying for a spark I rose up with the sun, Slept before the moon My eyes dread the nights, even before the noon All that I could see, I chose not to Shut my eyes tight, hearing murmurs a few I heard her crying, my eyes had to see Looking upon the night, I never knew it would be As I glimpsed through my dark, I finally had the sight My senses had betrayed me, for the night was my spark Oh, the moon had me blinded but I can finally see You are no moon or the moonlight, you are the night you can be I see you through my emptiness, my heart aches and dries Never have I ever, been able to hear your cries Do not ever cry, as the moonlight wets your face I see you as the night, but I also see your fears You need not be afraid, for I will let you cry My ears might be senseless, but my heart surely hears For I will let you cry, only if they're happy tears

YOU ARE

You are the one who sleep with me and hug me tight You are the one who make me smile when we fight You are the one who give me support when in bad times You are the one who walk with me  too many miles You are the one who fixes my heart of broken tiles You are the one who can't give up  when I'm right You are the one who is my delight You are the one who is like me After telling so much  I don't know what to say YOU ARE MY SISTER!! SO HAPPY SISTER'S DAY
