The Gleam of Love

This poem is dedicated to my friend, Tina.


The Gleam of Love

By Zhema

You are the only one I allow to read my book, its pages still unfinished.

The longing that all this time has paraded, wrapping the earth, has taken form, Encircling my being. Are you here only for a fleeting moment, my lord?

No, be at ease! My tongue you have stilled; It refuses to scatter questions that shall never be answered.

Your charm has left me unable to give even an inch of my heart to another. Yet may I humbly plead: Fasten my soul securely Within the chamber of your heart.

For the jeweled throne within my soul Glows with joy, weaving together all the goodness you have offered in my life.

The Real Dead People

"I see dead people"--The Sixth Sense Ambling! Hustling! When my soul wandering all the lands and oceans, My wings couldn't stop peace on them for long: scared. None of the people I met had normal eyes, Their skin were pale, "Hey, buddy! Look at me!" I shouted to them but silent I gotten. For the second thought trying, "Hey, sweetheart! Look at me!" I shouted to them, they stopped walking; Stepped closer emotionless. Trembling feelings in my legs, Then the heart beating hard, "What's going on to these people?" I threw a spear from my eyes, One of the beautiful girls said, "Bring me back to life, please?" Hence, my body and soul awakened. I sat on the park bench and thought, Hugged myself tightly, There, roughly ten o'clock position from me; car crashed sounds. I rushed and found a cat, bleeding on the asphalt road, "Just throw it in the garbage bin, dude" he said. My teeth chattered: hea...

2nd Day of 2020

Second Day of 2020 By Zhema Love, laugh, love Laugh, love, laugh Raindrops fall on the roof On this second day of 2020 You close your eyes and embrace the moment Soothing the soul This is the time when everything— Even the love that once burdened your heart— Will be forgotten. Not for nothing, Your mind connects with logic When dreams run wild The pedals of life must move forward On the right path of faith. A bitter beginning is always better, As long as the ending is sweeter. You ask Him for love, You resist the temptations of love, You long for pure love— Love is all you desire. Everything will pass, If you remain silent. Everything will be fine, If you move forward. It’s all worth it, dear, To reach a beautiful future. Trust me! You crave love, You deserve love, You laugh in love. Kuala Kurun, 2 January 2020.

Your Wound Will Be Healed

"Why take any longer The feeling's getting stronger No, I can't wait. I can't wait anymore! Cause Today Is Yesterday's Tomorrow"--Michael Buble Standing squarely before my mirror, I ask you as the shadow of mine, How could you pretend smile? Meanwhile, your open wound uncleaned; Yellowish-red, To strive, to seek and find a bandage. Please one step ahead! 'Don't expel me' you said, We need to go to the library, Finding a book of God's: Beautiful in cover, light you heart, Thus, you will forget me. No! Dear, I can't stand it, Without you i'm nothing, Everything is blue. Don't hate me! Cause you cannot go alone, I know the feeling's getting stronger, Just stay here, your wound will be healed: I love you. ©zhema
