Maia Padua Poems

When God created me
An empty canvass, I am
Relying on His plans
Drifting on His purpose
...

All my life I never know
What’s lacking in me
What I’m searching for
What treasure in the world I sought for
...

No one, nothing encourages me now
Lagging i am, falling from behind
Nobody lifts my spirit until
My spirit drifted away
...

An angel once
With eyes that gaze with love
Lips that speaks of goodness
Whose words and acts are blessed
...

Mother Teresa of Calcutta;
A citizen of India
In her works she had belong to the world
In her heart she had belong to God
...

When I said I love you;
I write it on a leaf of paper,
Folded beautifully, scented.
It may just be burned, thrown away
...

Like a driftwood, I am
Floating, drifting to where the rivers flow
Letting where destiny brings me
and where fate lead me through.
...

</>IN EVERY SORROW, EVERY PAIN;
GOD KNOWS THE REASON
IN EVERY SADNESS AND HAPPINESS;
GOD KNOWS THE REASON
...

I looked back and ponder on the time we first met,
there’s no flashing bulb,
No flickering lights,
no strange feelings,
...
