My light…

Born of the earth

Yet forged in a fire

As the earth and the moon

Became one for just a while

Two hearts beat as one

But for just a short time

Pulled apart so abrupt

Destined to pine

Left in the cold

On this desolate land

Only the glow

Of the Moon I understand

Solace sates my pain

As she comes every night

My heart beats fast

When she comes into sight

Till one day when she

 Disappeared into the sun

Afraid she was gone

I would have no one

Then she returned

Soon to my delight

Since that day I look to the sky

And I howl every night

For my only true Love

The question…

On this day Like no other

The day we found each other

Can a day change a life, yes

The day I found, my hopeful wife

On this night with no covers

The night we became true lovers

Into the night on this single day

I found the words I longed to say

I will love you for all my life

Will you Ani , be my wife

For all my life..

…You My Love

You gave me friendship

When I was without

So simple the gesture

Yet sublime no doubt

The day I’m not sure

As it happened so fast

When we became one

A friendship to last

For the last of my years

Of a lifetime spent

Searching for you my love

Though time is only lent

A shadow of a dream

Yet could never quite see

I knew you were there

A part of me

To this moment we have

This love meant to be

Only close to my heart

My destiny…

…You My Love

….a nightmare

It started with one finger

Aimed at the heart

The root of it all

Whence hate found it’s start

A weed the grows strong

Entwined throughout

Relentless it spreads

Choking all without

Intent on destruction

Two thorns now collide

No concern for the meek

Only hate will abide

Clouds dance in the wind

As calamity begins

A single eye now looks down

For atonement of sins

Beasts run for shelter

As death rules this land

Awake from their sleep

As they brush off the sand

Painted horses walk slowly

On their backs ride the souls

Of the innocent lives

Taken in a war of tolls

As I looked to the sky

My shadow ran from the sun

Only the fire of hate left as

Nightmares have begun

To wake

…My dreams

As day fades in the shadows

And silence sets in

Dreams wake from their slumber

Let the havoc begin

Here birds are silent

Shadows rise from the ground

And break from their tethers

A cacophony with no sound

Faces with no eyes

float from left to right

With cold blank stares

They slowly fade from sight

Calm soon covers like a blanket

A faint figure appears

She looks so familiar

As she begins to near

I see her every night

Yet never knowing her name

Never seeing where she went

Nor from where she came

The birds now singing

The day has begun

Anticipation rules my day

While my shadow and I walk in the sun

Tonight I will ask her

Please tell me your name

Till then I can only dream of her

As I wait for dark to reclaim…

…My dreams

…Her name is Love

As the birds go silent

And the crickets sing

The moon shines bright

While the willows swing

In a cool summer breeze

The trickle of a brook

Over pebbles worn smooth

Can be heard as you look

As shadows dance in the wind

Asway with the trees

They seem to come near

Then disappear in the leaves

The air became still

Not a sound to be heard

I saw her that night

Found the gift of the word

Ive seen her in my dreams

I know every curve on her face

Every subtle nuance

Draped in satin and lace

Now I have found her

In fate I believe

I searched for true Love

Never could I leave

I asked her name

With a whisper she said

You can call me Love

By whom you were led

By gian casey.  ©

…the writer

They flow without thought

A mind of their own

Each finger in sync

Before a thought ever sown

I dare not question

Where the words began

Can only appreciate

Will never understand

A fleet of a moment

A glimpse of a thought

They show me a peek

An idea I sought

I may pause for a second

Read over a line

Then the hands resume

With the prose and a rhyme

A writ we have

As they need my warped mind

To put pen to paper

 Within each askew line

Yes my fingers and I

A symbiotic pact

In need of each other

Without we both lack

Just a word…

…If only there were no war

If they could be heard

The voices silenced

What would they say

About the violence

If they could speak

The voices quelled

What would they say

Of lives expelled

If they could be seen

The faces of the dead

How would they look

What would be said

If everyone would listen

A conversation to impart

It takes only words

And understanding could start

…With only a bit of Love

By gian casey.  ©

….The Precipice

The sky is bare

A silence never heard

As death rose above

In a plume of the absurd

Over a swatch of land

Each other not welcome

Into the depths of destruction

All will succumb

Let the purveyors reap

The burnt seeds they have sown

And feast on the dust

Of the dead they had known

Into the devastation of this planet

And every Living creature

The extinction of the modern world

Now the reality not a midnight feature

Dramatic this may seem

I mean not to scare

Yet on a precipice we teeter

I hope to inspire you to care

To change it!

….The Precipice

Anisoara

I write this only to you

Everyone else,

well I’ve talked about her so long

It’s only fair you hear this

I’ve wrote poems by the score

I’ve sent long prose and much more

I have no longer the need

To hide my feelings in words and rhyme

Just let me tell you straight out

I have searched for a feeling all

My life

The feeling of being a part of

Someones life

It took all the years of my life

to find this feeling

I can say that all the years

of waiting have been

The best years ever spent

Waiting for you

I don’t know where we are going

I only know

I want to go there with you

As you spoke so eloquently my love…

Eati minunat sa știi te iubesc  pentru acest lucru exista 2 persoane care se iubesc sa fie impreuna la bine și la rau

…We are 2 people who love each other to be together through thick and thin.

This is Love…

This is love

By gian casey.  ©

….just be you

Just be you

And let yourself be true

Have faith in what it seems

To follow your dreams

As they can come true

It’s only up to you

To dream, to dream

Allow love to find you

Love will always be true

Let the feeling grow

You already know

It’s always been there

Don’t know from where

Just be you, be you

You know it’s true

It’s true

By gian casey. ©

….And I say to her

As the rush of a day slows

The sun closes its eyes

Her beauty comes alive

Aglow in night skies

She is always there

As she sings aloud

Her voice clear as ice

Though hidden by clouds

To me,  my world

Magical with allure

She calls to me each night

To my heart I give Alure

Whence did she come

What reason is it I

She chose such a simple man

Forever I ask why

So I look to the skies

Every day every night

And think of my Moon

The Love of my life

And I say..

I love you Anisoara

By  gian casey   ©

….time

The hands move faster

As time slips away

In a frantic race

To finish the day

The mirror remembers

Until you look close

And see the years lost

An image of a ghost

Yet nothing has changed

Except wrinkled lines

That person still the same

Though a bit faded by time

Covered in dust does it lay

In the recess of a tomb

Never to be needed

A relic left to exhume

Not yet in the future

Never again in the past

An ancient artifact

Seems time does last..

….Forever

By giancasey  ©

….That’s all I’ll write

One voice starts as a seed

Heard as a whisper in a crowd

Grows quickly like a weed

Shouted out loud

You beautiful people

Never forget what’s true

I am old but we all depend

On the future… that’s you!

I am appalled by purveyors of lies

The flagrant egotist on cue

Always in front of a camera

As if they actually knew

Throw off that burden

Shed that coat

Look only at the truth

That’s all I’ll write

….For now

By giancasey. ©

…ode to the voices of our world

To scream

If just for a second

To open that door Just a crack

As it beckons

To hide

No more in the shadows

To brave the unknown without wit

Thru any peril

To never relent

Not even for a moment

To always be peaceful

Never travel down that road

Lest you become

The face of what you abhor

Let your voice quell the silence

Of compliant complacency

To scream

My  voice will be heard

Ode to the voices of our world

By gian casey.  ©

….the sands of time

As the moon looks down

Witness to revolt

Her tears in every storm

Her scream in every bolt

On the edge of the bank

As the tide rushed in

A tsunami of hate

And so it began

It feeds without want

Only a gluttonous desire

Then recedes leaving starved souls

With not even a pyre

So the seeds of hate

Have been sown once again

A season never seen before

As the conscience of the innocent rise to defend

The tide now has turned

The truth left on the beach

For the world to witness

For which our youth will teach

Planting seeds of love

Yields fields seen afar

Those who sow seeds with fire

Feed on the dust of war

Yes, She looks down every night

On us from above

Her pull on our lives

Guide us forward towards Love

As the truth will always be upheld

By the hand of the honest

The purveyors of hate

Left buried in the sand

By gian casey.  ©

….our love is true

I found you one day

Without looking for love

Can not explain

Yet you became my world

Did I find you or you me

Will never know

Why we came to be

You gave me your heart

Despite my faults

You stayed by my side

You gave me your love

Did you look for me or I you

We will always know

Our love is true

By gian casey.  ©

….Basking in her Love

So easily it flows

My love for her, you see

Never ending  waves

Before they return to the sea

Unsteady I am, as

Sand rushes from underfoot

Standing firm will I

If only I could

Will she leave

As quickly as she came

Alone once again

On the shore in the rain

I raise my arms

To the sky above

To take in every drop

The nectar of her love

….Basking in her Love

By gian casey.  ©

….if only I could ask

I don’t know how to tell you

Can not find the words

That can explain how I feel

And the fears that have stirred

You are the air that I breathe

I want for nothing more

Complete is my life

You opened the door

Dependent am I

On the love you have given

Every day in my life

By you is so driven

I wish just one thing

If only I could ask

Do you feel the same for me

But always afraid to ask

By gian casey.  ©

….a whirlwind

All my life I’ve been strong

Fearless of all

Alone I became

An impenetrable wall

You entered my life

In a whirlwind you came

You took me by hand

Led me out of the rain

I stood before you

My heart in my hands

Baring my soul

A new chapter began

Yes I’ve always been strong

For all of my years

That you may tire of me

Now my greatest only fear

By gian casey.  ©

….love of mine

With a subtle smile

A twinkle in her eye

I could not look away

A fate not to deny

What forces there must be

To bring two souls together

Or is just by chance

In the wind like a feather

Drawn to her eyes

The only light in the dark

Dare not veer away

From this journey I embark

Time stands still

As I look in her eyes

Forever will I stay

With this love of mine
