Griefs Solace

Image
  Grief's Solace" In unwished moments, grief descends Like rain, it surrounds him, a relentless friend He tries to shut his eyes, to escape the pain But memories linger, an aching refrain Perhaps, he cries out loud, in desperation's grip A lonely cry, echoing through the night's dark rip He yearns for guidance, a gentle hand to lead But finds himself alone, with heart and soul to read They ask him, "Grief's son, why wander and roam?" "Do you have a mother?" They query, a heartless tone "Why walk in darkness?" They ask, without a care "Why tears of loneliness?" They probe, with no repair But he rejoices intentionally, amidst sorrow's sway And cries unexpectedly, in a grief-stricken way Maybe they think him mad, a gamble, a risk to take But he's just a soul, lost, with heartache to unmake Grief's son calls out to his mother, a cry in the night Perhaps she'll hear his plea, and guide him to new light Though he st...

The Unheard

  The Unheard Left speechless, words escape me  No excuses left, only silence Should confess, 'it was my fault?" But I was in the backyard, lost in my hobby's calm Still, the weight of responsibility stays A burden to bear, a heart that sways  Accepting blame, a bitter pill to swallow A pain that lingers, a disappointment to follow  Perhaps time will heal, perhaps it won't  But for now, l'm left with this hollow thought A search for answers, a reason to claim  But the truth remains exclusive, a lingering shame 

Sorrow's Refrain

Image
  "Cry of the motherless boy, echoing across the seas, A haunting melody, like a morning glory's sigh. A sad song, filled with anger and sorrow, Eyes brimming with tears, as memories unfold. He recalls the sweet serenade of tree birds, Once sung through the window, now a distant echo. He yearns to hear it again, to soothe his soul, But it's lost, leaving only longing and pain. The motherless boy lies restless, in a bed of despair, Sorrowful and alone, with no comfort in sight. His cry resonates, a heart-wrenching plea, For the love and solace he's never known."

Beyond Silence

Image
  Deep inside me, a nagging doubt resides, Something feels off, a sense of unease I've tried. To shake it off, but it persists, a constant hum, Do you mind if we talk about it, my dear, my love? What's wrong, my heart beats fast, my mind awhirl? Why this fear of distance, these unsettling thoughts I've heard? Why do I call, and no answer comes? Please, tell me, I need to know, to understand, to ease my soul's dark hum. Perhaps it's worth sharing, perhaps not, The choice is yours, my dear, my heart is open, like a book. I'm here to listen, to offer a supportive ear, If not, I'll still be here, waiting, without a s peck of fear.

Love not War

Image
  Give me your love, my dear, Fill me with happiness in the night, For service should be daily, not just in sight. Love not war, I say, Look no worry, for I have no might, But now, you've turned against me, Like a wolf, with rumors spreading free, Innocent masks hide your face, Oh, just like a plan, a deceitful pace. Why the betrayal? Look in my eyes, Tell me, dear, is it love or war that lies? Between us, or perhaps more, Please tell me, and end this painful score. Love not war, like the papery woman, You've taken your path, uncovered and unspoken, Forgetting that your body had a shape, When covered, it gained you respect, and a noble escape. But now, your foolishness has led you astray, To the path of empty death, in disarray, Just like the papery woman, it's now war, not love, A tragic end, sent from above.

A Silent Confession

Image
  My heart beats fast, yet I'm frozen in fear, Afraid to say "I love you," my words unclear. I yearn to be near you, hold you close and tight, But fear of rejection and loyalty's weight. You belong to him, my friend, my confidant, A bond that binds, a love that's not meant to be bent. Is betrayal worthy, to pursue my heart's desire? Or am I too late, lost in love's embers, my soul on fire? My love for you grows, yet I'm silenced by shame, Afraid to confess, my emotions in vain. I love you deeply, but can't utter the words, My secret kept hidden, my heart forever blurred.

The True Meaning of Christmas

 _The True Meaning of Christmas_ Millie slumped in front of her computer, searching for the true meaning of Christmas online. With 49 million sites to sift through, she felt overwhelmed. "Where's the real Christmas?" she wondered. Sites about Santa Claus, the Grinch, and commercialized holiday products flooded her screen. Recipes and cultural celebrations from around the world added to the noise. Millie's confusion deepened. "Isn't Christmas about the birth of Jesus Christ?" she asked herself. After all, Christ is in the word Christmas. She opened her Bible and read about Jesus' birth. Tears of joy filled her eyes. "This is what I've been searching for – the real meaning of Christmas!" This holiday season, remember that Jesus Christ is the reason for the celebration. Look for Him amidst the hustle and bustle.                                         By Emmax Jojo D
