Paul Sebastian Poems

A little while we’re here
In a little while, we’re no more
Memories we’ll fondly treasure
Of love, peace, joy shared with ones we know
...

My mother, she is gone
One who bore me
Her arms lovingly caressed me
At her breasts, she fed me
...

You have not walked in my shoes
You do not know what I’ve been through
You do not know what moves me within
You do not know my desire in the making
...

Daffodils welcome the dawn of spring
Labouring winter gives birth to spring

Roses, enchanter of lovers’ hearts
...

How could a defaced Nation look pretty
When she's been scared with scandals?
Could a nation be built for posterity
When she regresses, a doing by leaders?
...

Heart conceived love
I conceived you
Your presence consumed me
My being centred on you
...

A jobless youth rested
Under a shade of a mango tree, tired
After a fruitless job-hunting whole day
Resigned: disillusioned and in utter dismay
...

My beloved, take me by my hand
Walk me through our dreamland
A secret, so intimate to us
We've been love-dreamers
...

Bury past in Past Cemetery
Embrace the gift of today
Bringing along another opportunity
To rewrite the script of life's play
...

Your eyes permeating all walls
Penetrate to embrace my heart
Cuddling hearts: mine and yours
Melting, molding into a bust
...
