NEVER WANTED TO SAY GOODBYE

As think of this dear friend 
and our immersion together
the emotional tears 
flood my eyes

I never wanted to let him go
Wasn't able to say goodbye

Blemished aspects eroded
dissolved in the devotion 
which therefore departed

Hence, it was time to close 
the silent, aching fracture 
that exists
by allowing him to spread 
his wings 
and fly 
on his own course
in the hope that he embraces 
my enlightening gifts 
to light his way

His sudden and ambiguous 
estrangement 
evaporated
portraying the resemblance 
of the stench of rancid milk

Dimming the light 
of the radiance 
within my heart and soul

His senseless pride 
was bound to the sword 
that imposed the final cut

The slayer that executed 
the Spirit and Heart 
of the friendship’s Soul

The biased ego accomplice 
quashed the flow 
which sustained imminent fondness

The beast of demise 
unjustly valued
veiled the darkness 
of eluding truth

Hence, I've always believed 
that nothing lasts forever
But I have to honor myself 
and preclude the bleeding

Valuing and restoring 
my dignity 
and enforce my morals
ultimately sending him 
light 
from a distance 
and love 
in my prayers

As I heal my Soul 
and let go 
of the pain 
from the state of this decay
I withdraw 
in a silent goodbye 
and release him 
from my life

If only he had the emotional clarity 
equal to the love 
in his heart
this friendship would not have been 
so bitter-sweet 
with omens I ignored 
from the start. ~NJ~

WHO AM I?

You are in my heart
How else could I feel the rhythm?

You are in my eyes
How else could I observe?

You are in my touch
How else could I feel?

You are in my mind
How else could I comprehend?

You are in my intuition
How else could I sense?

You are in my experience
How else could I identify?

You are in my words
How else could I convey?

You are in my core
How else could I have merit?

You are in my laugh
How else could I rejoice?

You are in my goals
How else could I triumph?

Who am I? 
I am my Soul ~NJ~

WHILE THE FLUTE WAS PLAYING

While the flute is playing
in the land of nowhere
searching the way 
to somewhere
there is an ambiguous road

Mystic moments 
in thoughts of haze
is there a way out?

Searching for
the pinnacle balance
as the wind is blowing
and the sun is shining
all around my head

While the flute was playing
mindful matters searching 
for the heart’s leadership

Blinded by numbness
exploring in prudence
the truthful 
and decent path
embracing
the genuine and trusting faith

The wind is blowing
The sun is shining
all around my soul
While the flute is playing
leaving nowhere land

I hear the sound 
of the flute 
calling to me
music all around
clearing the mind
founded in trust and love. ~NJ~
