THE END OF AN ERA

I take this nostalgic trip four years down the memory lanes,
Viewing my life from yonder like a film shielded by glass panes,
Staring at pleasures of joys past and the scars of gone pains,
Marveling at the depth of new-found wisdom and experience gains,
As the curtain cascades downwards,It is the end of an era.

Staring at my younger self,I can't help but marvel at how time has flown,
The innocent boy is gone,taken by the winds of change that have blown,
Past me with speed and force, and in his place a young man has grown,
Teeming with eagerness and haste to face the world and win his crown,
As the curtain cascades downwards, It is the end of an era.

I walk past the trails of juvenile heartbreaks and gigantic crushes,
Smiling with nostalgia at the countless barrels of wasted tears,
Laughing at the wasted efforts and endless adrenaline rushes,
Amused by the teething mistakes and groundless fears,
As the curtain cascades downwards,It is the end of an era.

A LETTER TO GOD

Dear Heavenly Father, Every morning I wake up and wish heaven was a physical destination, Where I could race to seek Your audience whenever life tossed me into a situation, For though I've read your word and partaken of your freedom and liberation, I sometimes can't help but wish that we could share coffee, and have a face to face conversation. You see, sometimes I wish that heaven had a postal address where I could send my mail, Or a port of call that I could land for comfort whenever life storms made me frail, Like a wounded warship keeling over with broken masts and a torn sail, Limping home for warmth and comfort after the violence of raging storms and hail. When reading your word I am amazed by the intricacy and depth of your mercies, That you sacrificed your only son to die for me without considering my inadequacies, Which are so many that I sometimes feel unworthy of your love and many promises, But again you reassure me that you love me ev

DANGEROUS LOVE

Every time I see Your face, My heart increases its pace, Overpowered by the conviction to present its case, Confess of how I feel lost in Your gaze. Your style is so amazing, Your countenance totally captivating, Your beauty surpasses enchanting, Your character? So full of life and interesting.  Its just that with You I'm like a moth playing with a flame, So captivated though I know that its such a dangerous game, Which can burn my wings and leave me lame, So if I get heartbroken I'll only have myself to blame. © Patolyer 2012

I WANT YOU

I want an incisive, insightful,irreverent, inquisitive and challenging mind. I want someone with whom philosophical discourse is foreplay. I want someone who makes my knees go weak with her sharp wit, irresistible charm and keen sense of humor. I want someone who speaks sarcasm as a mothertongue, with whom double entendres and naughty innuendos will form the foundation of our communication. I want someone that I reach out and touch randomly, caress her sensually, just by exchanging passionate words. I want someone I cuddle with, just by whispering in her ear. I want someone with skillfully honed imagination, ready to push the limits in exploration. I want someone...... I want You!!! ©Patolyer 2015.
