I'm here, I'm right here, Waiting for my time to blossom. Will the sun caress me with it's light? Or will the clouds sprinkle love on me with it's droplets?
I'm here, I'm right here, Waiting to open myself to the world. Will they accept my beauty as natural as it is? Or will they compare me to the flower next to me?
I'm here, I'm right here, Waiting to give my smell to the world. Will they love me as I'm, no matter from where I belong? Or will they try to pluck me and put me somewhere, thus losing my home?
I'm here, I'm right here, Waiting to see the world. Can I give happiness and hope to the world the way I'm? Or should I be worried about my future? -JMJ
You will be that pain in my heart that never gets old, As your lies were taking chances one by one to unfold, A scar in my heart that will always be new, While you are partying with someone I knew. Time heals everything they say, Hoping that it won't be a lifetime and that's what I pray, How could one can understandanother's soul so deeply, Yet can't see their betrayals and be blind completely? -JMJ
I wrote this poem while I was watching Grace and Frankie. It was actually Frankie who inspired me as she loved Sol and knew each and every minute details about him but didn’t realize that he was cheating on her for about two decades. Irony is that they were like soulmates.
As Autumn comes in it's full glory, I see all the colors from my gallery, Getting ready for the cold winter nights, Trees are preparing themselves for their annual fights. While the green leaves are turning themselves into yellow,orange,purple and red, I wonder what is going inside their heart as they are going to shed, Are they ready to let go of their mates, Or just accepting what is written in their fates? While they are having their internal conflicts, What others can see are just those beautiful sights, Where the colors of their lives comes alive in front ofour eyes, And all we can do is admire their beauty and sacrifice. -JMJ
When the whole world stops, And there is nothing to hope, You give your smile, To convince me that all is well, Oh baby! You are strong. When my heart starts to bleed, And it gets hard for me to breathe, Then you hug me and kiss me to calm my mind, I see the resilience in your eyes, Oh baby! You are strong. When it gets hard to take another step, All I see are the walls and there is no way to escape, You take my hand to go for a walk, And show me a world beyond those walls, Oh my baby! You are strong. -JMJ
A moment of perfection, It was when I saw you giving instruction, To someone who was in need, I thought you did a good deed. A moment of love and affection, In those eyes I saw a beautiful connection, Where I could see my whole life, I knew that soul from otherlife. A moment of euphoric sensation, When you took the chance to ask me a question, It felt like I was floating in the space, And then I fell flat on my face. -JMJ
I don't know what love is, But I'm sure it's not breaking another's trust, It's not comparing one to another, It's not keeping secrets to self, It's not hiding the truth from other, It's not pointing out only the weaknesses, It's not blaming the other for the disastrous event, It's not being selfish and thinking just about yourself, It's not humiliating the other infrontof your friends, It's not owning the other like a material, It's not about age,sex, money,status,race or religion, Now, I know what love is, It's just the opposite of all the above said, Love is love, Nothing less or nothing more. -JMJ
Is there a way to find out, What is inside your heart? Is it the feeling of happiness of loving someone? Or a feeling of pride of owning someone? Is there a way to find out, What your intentions are? Is it to bring out the best in someone? Or to tarnish by spilling out the the secrets of your trusted ones? Is there a way to find out, Who you really are? Is that the big smile on your face is honest? Or just a lie to hide your poisonous mind which is dishonest? Is there a way to find out, While I'm standing on this crossroad, To run towards you with all the love in my heart, Or to run away as fast I can with my life in my hand? -JMJ
When someone rocks your boat, And there is nothing that you can do about, Calm your body and mind, But stand tall and keep this in mind, That even a storm can't touch a tree, With roots so strong and deep caused by all those hardships on the tree. When someone rocks your boat, And blames for something you knew nothing about, Calm your body and mind, Fly high and keep this in mind, That dark clouds can't stop an eagle, When it's soars high in the sky, Believing just on its wings it flies high above those clouds in the sky. When someone rocks your boat, All you have to do about, Is to keep holding on to theoars, And to believe in yourself to row your boat with those oars. -JMJ
When my life turns upside down, When I feel all alone, When none of the things feel right, When everything in front of me is an upsetting sight, I see you running towards me, To wrap your arms around me, Then you give me your soothing kiss on my cheeks, Did I ever tell you this? That you are my little sunshine, You are my little sunshine... -JMJ
Saw pure love in their eyes, When they were gazing each other's eyes, A half a century of life together, Still they love to have moments together. Finding a person to love is a blessing, But to be loved in the same way needs more blessings, Their love and care for each other made my heart warm, When I saw him tucking her to keep her body warm. When they said forever in their vows, They meant each and every word of their vows, To be there for each other is not overrated, Forever is notatall overrated. -JMJ
