Superficial World…

Fine wines that splash,
Flashy cars that whirl,
Yes, we are a part,
Of a superficial world.

It’s the diamonds that shine
And land we heir
Its not who we are,
But what we flare.

I humbly ask, why do we forget,
Heart, mind, soul, and sense of self
These are my assets, and will always be
It’s how I feel, and not what I see

Am I wrong?
I don’t know why
How does a weary smile
Fill this heart with joy.

Why doesn’t my favorite car
Evoke that passionate stealth
Is it, the more we have
Or the less we felt???

Why? Why? I ask
Is matter so crucial?
When the best things are within
And not superficial

Never Look Back

I stand here alone under the sapphire sky
Can feel the icy wind passing by
Felt a warm touch that caught me tight
Thought I saw him, he is out of sight

I feel his arm around me though
A soft whisper in my ears,
I love you he said, holding me close
Hoping that minute would last for years

They say He’s dead and will never wake
I must cry and express my ache
Why must I, and yes I won’t
People die, memories don’t

I will never look back to say I wish
Now I wonder if these lips will ever be kissed
All I pray, to never see him again
As these weary eyes will say what I missed
