Cynthia Buhain-baello Poems

Because I love you
I have to say goodbye,

My sadness is heavy
...

He stalks in verdant Green
Breeds sharp acrimony
Pretenses left seen
Obnoxious Jealousy.
...

Like leaves that fall, never to return
Those dearly departed have gone away
And we who remain continue to yearn
For the human ties we still miss today.
...

Comfort zones embrace you
As you bury ostrich heads
In metaphysical sands
Of unmindful, carefree -
...

Basic Instruction Before Leaving Earth

Seeds grow naturally when watered,
So also does sin and the thoughts of it.
...

Melancholia devastates
It is just life erosion
Drains the spiritual state
Such a consuming depression.
...

The hand on the nuclear button
Is held by a mind that is sick
The eyes that keep it focused
Is blurring and quite myopic.
...

Indulging
In her passion,
Savoring
Each moment's taste
...

When my dreams
Like ship-wrecked paper boats
Get dashed in the streams of life
After a heavy rain
...

As precious as the golden sands
That fleeting winds blow freely,
Once in flight, he never lands
And with no leave, departs quickly.
...
