gina layog Poems

water surrounds me, constantly,
it undulates beneath me,
its motion, soothing, gliding, lulling,
lts sound so seductively, caress,
...

I saw the white light of dawn caressed the vestal night,
Rivulets of light passed painfully through the naked night,
for it clings to the true sky,
Evidence hidden among the stars somewhere,
...

I gathered dust in its clarity,
the ground meets me, crushing me brutally,
my legs gave way, crumbled to the ground,
shackled, bound, beaten, smacked around,
...

logic follows the straight and arrow,
glides perfectly upon deduction's flow,
how instinct prevails, owes a debt to experience's lot,
sensing perhaps a reason to its deliberate act,
...

(INSPIRED BY THE BEATLES SONG 'WHILE MY GUITAR GENTLY
WEEPS)

Shadows of winter, full blast,
...

time fast approaching,
it dawn on me suddenly,
the pendulum of reality,
swinging to the inevitability,
...

Decisions.....
Leaving....Beginning....
Starting all over...
Ocean deep that runs....
...

the walls around me no longer encased me,
My cell has vaporized.. and set me free..
No longer trapped.. I hopped with glee...
Looking forward to the future ahead...
...

Forty years ago...
I may have danced with you....
Or say I love you...or not?
Thirty-nine years ago....
...

The winter of my heart denies...
the one that I truly desires...
Were I to wrestle your soul..
and win you as my prize....
...
