   4. Remember Me

May, I

May I take your hand,
Lay touches all over you,
Beauty is just a word,
Which means little,
When compared to you,
May I say everything I feel,
Everything that’s real,
All the things I need,
From you,
Which is you beside me,
Everyday would be a blessing,
Life would be like heaven,
If you can just take,
My hand,
Your love,
I will never let go.

Oh muse, delight my time!
Allow me to say what’s true.
This hour when the world is mine.
Until I continue to have you.

Here, I do not regret,
To enter another day.
Even the birds don’t fret.
For there is always a way.

What miracles make?
I become my only zest.
What instincts break?
You become my best.

This feeling of me.
I try to ask a chance.
If only I can be.

May I take this dance?

Something In You

I
see something
in you

that
is not common
to men

and
I can differ
the red’s

from
the green’s.

I
cheer something
in you

that
is benevolent,
commendable

to
be uttered
in praise.

Smiles,
I love them,
I wasn’t like this,
Until you,
Came into my life,
Spun my whole world around,
Kind hearted,
Gentle voice,
Soft kisses,
You get the point,
I have changed,
Not because I had to,
But I wanted to,
For you,
I use to be bitter,
I use to be no fun,
You stuck by me anyway,
Always helped me,
I stopped crawling but now I can run,
Spiraling and laughing,
Your hands in mine,
I can truly say,
Because of something in you,
I can truly live life.

Old Maiden

The night is dancing with the moon.
There in the yard is a woman in solitude.
All crystal dews and morning bells come soon.
Over the years of ups and downs are magnitude.

She is the epitome of a free-spirited.
Her wills, her angsts, her ideals are deep.
On her face is a power-driven although not wed.
Her only treasure is her greatest, pure deed.

All her courage she carries it with pride.
The past cannot harm her, she is superwoman.
Against the world’s disaster or any other tide,
She walks in true apparition of being human.

Whether she is now aging, yet, gracefully.
Her flawless heart is all the more beautiful.
She has every hour and every day in glee.
Her mind is not empty but happily charged in full.

My fair lady,
You are like my light,
As I wake out of bed,
Morning sunshine,
You are there,
In your lovely dress,
Cleaning and dusting,
Making our home shiny,
Forever in debt to you,
We are building a life together,
I make the breakfast,
I throw out the trash,
We meet in between,
We don’t waste time to clash,
We built a home,
For in it we shall live,
From our youth to our elder days,
You are my lovely maiden,
And I shall forever be your king.

Remember Me

I’m not a pigment of your imagination.
I’m not a damage of your splinter.
I’m not a cause of your confusion.
I’m not a poison of your elixir.

Remember me as your hero.
Forget me like a tragedy.
Remember me in your tomorrow.
Forget me as a fallacy.

Things go wrong but they fade.
Memories last longer in your thoughts.
A captivating face cannot easily evade.
You enthrall me like thousand astronauts.

Remember me with your universe.
Bring me in the realm of your mind.
My love song is eternal like a written verse.
And your eyes to me will never go blind.
-=- Chester Maynes -=-

Though I am not gone,
I am not far away,
To hear you speak,
To feel you breathe,
Even though you can’t feel me,
Lost at times I see it in your face,
You seem down and out,
But you still put on a smile,
All the happy times you can count,
In a room you can me see,
Round and round,
Over there in a boat,
I remember that every day,
The kisses from you,
Picnic in the park,
That was a special day,
As you get yourself together,
And leave out into the world,
I hope you remember me,
As how I remember you,
To death do we part.
