Reyvrex Questor Reyes Poems

I fall asleep with thoughts of you in mind,
And think the same, the moment I awake,
Each day turns out like past made to rewind,
And every night, the same wish would I make;
...

Love, I have wondered quite a lot
If without you, what have I got?

When in the garden I would dance
...

I wish to be in the night
A swift bird in flight

In spirits high and free
...

My Lord, please set my heart to make amends,
Speak words of truth, not words of one deranged,
Make me so meek towards my estranged friends
Whose tongues, to scorpions' tails have so exchanged;
...

I once tried writing you a card
In letters of the purest gold
But that old goldsmith found it hard
Not to smelt the words in his mold
...

My love sent me a song so soft and sweet,
Like melody that lulls babies to sleep,
That hints of angels in their dreams to meet,
Assured in cradle of a mother's keep;
...

The sound of bugles dins so loud at last,
The cavalry must be approaching near,
Thank God that here, no more do cannons blast,
When seen from yonder banks as smoke would clear;
...

Was it a year ago that I was blessed,
When I could hold your hand, and kiss your lips,
Although not in the least could I have guessed,
So soon from memory this moment slips;
...

How soon could Spring begin to sprout again?
This world now riles at colors, bleak and gray,
Where could the dreams and fairy tales have lain,
Or will this stranger's horses find some hay?
...

My love did write me notes of loneliness,
Her tears have smudged the margins of the page,
But left an ending of such sweet caress,
As though bowing, to curtsy on a stage;
...
