Hello, Stranger In Black


Hello

Stranger in black,

Why are you so sad?

What happened to take away your smile?

You are young

You are pretty

What happened?

Hello

Stranger in black

I saw you at the Bank

And instantly knew

That you were special

Then I saw you on my street

And realized you just moved in

I see you often

In shops

And in Church

Give me a chance to speak to you

And make you smile again

From your heart


Hello

Stranger in black

Your sadness has frozen men away

And made you solitary

You sometimes smile

But in your eyes

Your sorrow shows
Hello

Stranger in black

Your black garment is spiritual

Not physical

You have mourned for too long

Hidden from men

Take off your black garment

And smile once again

Because this man

Speaking wants to

Transform your inner garment

From sorrow to happily married

He wants to make you a special women

If you will let him

The Last Time I Saw You

Divorce, Poems, Short Stories
The Last Time I Saw You

The last time I saw you

You could not look at me

You were angry

Traumatized and sad

Because I left you

And broke our vow

 

The last time I saw you

You had become an addict

To alcohol

You were tired and discouraged

You hated women

 

The last time I saw you

I wondered if you would ever heal

And I also became sad

Because I hurt you

By leaving

And made you loose

Confidence in love and marriage


But you must remember

That we fought everyday

In front of our children

We were both miserable

And our home became

A battle ground

And a place of mourning

Unhealthy for us

And our children

Everyday I pray

For you

The father of my children

That God will heal your heart

And mine too

Because we both need it

Divorce is painful

Divorce is sad

But sometimes

It just has to happen

When You Said Goodbye 

Break Up, Poems, Relationship, Short Stories
When You Said Goodbye 


And that when I started to cry

When you said goodbye

When you took your love

And gave it

To someone else

 

I started to cry

When I remembered the home

We built together,

And our lovely kids

I started to cry

When you ignored your children

And pretended they

Did not exist

 

But I stopped crying

When I remembered

The goodness of God

And his mercy

He became

The father of my children

And I never lacked

He wiped away my tears

And brought David

Who loved me

And grew old with me

And I never remembered

You or your betrayal

Ever again

They Called Me A Dreamer

Home, Inspirational, Passion, Poems, Short Stories
They Called Me A Dreamer


They called me a dreamer

Because I had so many dreams

I was fifteen, lively and determined

I could not stop talking

About my passions

I wanted to be a great sports person

And produce movies

What a funny combination

I remember one girl very clearly


“Chloe, you are such a dreamer,”

She would say loudly

And the whole class would laugh at me

Including Harry

My high school crush

They made me feel stupid

For having dreams and passions

It never bothered me

I was firmly convinced

With wild and firm

Resolutions

Untamed and energetic

In its intensity

Was my passion


I was like someone possessed

Because the thoughts

Wouldn’t go away

So I rehearsed relentlessly

Swimming after swimming

I was trained by the best

Swimming instructors

I saved money

And bought the best software

For film production

Trainings after trainings

Software after software

I persisted

And never gave up

Or looked back

Now I look back

And I am pleased

With where I am

I have one of the best movie production

Companies in the world

And I have won

Many swimming medals

And championships

My dreams became

Reality

Because I clung to them

And never let go

Dreams and passions

Have life in them


Never let go of

Your hopes and your dreams

Because they were planted in you

By God

Make sure you make time

To pursue those activities

That make you happy

And be sure to make money

From your dreams and passions

Because that is God’s will

Ignore those mockers

And silly voices

Telling you

You are a dreamer

Cling to your dreams

And never let go

Come To Me

Faith, Home, Inspirational, Poems, Short Stories
Come To Me


The darkness beckons

Because within it

Lives ignorance

Which is sweet

To the unsuspecting

And simple

With eyes blinded by the world

To wallow in darkness and foolishness

In darkness, the light

Is a false light

That gives bliss to the soul

Error becomes truth

And truth becomes error

The darkness

Is perverting and perverted

It’s subjects

Willing captives

In the battlefield of life

I can hear the echoes of darkness

Shrieking and screaming

Reverberating in a distant land

Under the earth

Full of grief and pain

Where soul are trapped in

Endless torture


I can hear the Master say,

“Sons of men

Reject the darkness

And embrace light

Come to me

The source of light

And the darkness will flee

I am the light of the world

Come to me

And embrace me”

Under The Mango Tree

Inspirational, Poems, Relationship, Short Stories
Under The Mango Tree


We held hands in the moonlight

Under the mango tree

You were twenty

I was eighteen

We vowed to take the vow

In Church

And embrace

For better for worse

You travelled abroad

On scholarship

To become a doctor

I waited patiently

And you came back

After ten years

But with your bride

And two children

And all you said

Was I’m sorry

I hid my new life from you

And made you wait

For me

In vain
