Cynthia Buhain-baello Poems

Words tossed
Into a page
Like sand to the sea
May be lost
...

You must think I am stone cold
To turn a blind eye to the past.
But I have my future to hold,
Set free from what did not last.
...

I tried to write another poem for Mom,
But the tears blurred the words away
Thoughts were drowned as memories come
To somehow bring back the times in replay.
...

A leaf lay fallen on the ground
Bade goodbye to its parent tree
For analeptic reasons found
It feeds the soil submissively
...

His words like empty gongs
Hollow of wisdom's sound
To the Abyss they should belong
Where the imbeciles are found.
...

frilly petal skirts
bright colored scented ladies
hear bees in courtship
...

As Debts swallow focus and heart
Entices our Will to grasp at thin rope,
Hoping that a salvaged life could start
Like a Sphinx from the ashes, to grope.
...

You left and I let you go
There were no hurts or regrets
True love is freedom, it is so -
And with us, there's no need to fret.
...

Speeding reckless at twenty-two
Was evading pursuit from the law
His wasted years just went through
Crashing wildly to the tree he saw.
...

Genuine friendship is a treasure
Of far greater worth than pure gold,
Through passing years the bond endures
Time and distance can't turn it cold.
...
