A Tribute for Kenji Goto

  



               A Tribute for Kenji Goto

                  Fly now high above 
     where your hopes and aims belongs
 from the cruel world that you have fought 
          to save and lived...and loved...

       Oh, Yes your voice is now heard
with the voices that you wished to be heard...
               they are echoing now
     with no borders through all the earth...

                    The pitiless foe
          who took your life from you
   will one day be the ravens feasted feat..
              and merciless as they
  in the pit of hades in eternal mourning 
    and gnashing of teeth they will pay...
         God will punish the ruthless 
            as they deserve to be...

                       Fly high...
                Fly high now Kenji
          in heaven's gate the angels 
              are waiting...chanting
               "Well done, Kenji..."

in trusting God...



My heart is anxious within me...
but I know I need not be...
For no matter what the reality are 
before me...
I know in everything, 
Oh God , you work for the good
for those who have faith in thee...

So my soul,
be in solemn peace within me...
in whatever maybe
for in trusting God you'll know
All are meant to be ...

Poets

  


Poets

Poets are quiet listening souls
impassionedly hearing 
voices of the heart
painting them in words...
Speaking the unspeakable 
declaring the undeniable...
The Poet is in everyone's heart...

In His grace...





In His grace

With the voice of thunder 
and rushing waters
majestic as the universe
so loud and so clear...
He called ..."Follow me..."

But I was so young to understand ...
then time just slipped away...

In the wilderness of the past 
in a dream He led me...
I ran through the woods 
and  climbed a dark mountain...
When a huge hand from above
on top it took me...
He showed me the grandeur below 
from the top of the mountain...

But still I was so worn and confused 
to comprehend...
Yet choked in life, on my way I walked...

But He loves me so much 
that He led me through a storm
that I could not stand alone...
He led me through pain
that I can not bear...
and in frailty and helplessness
in hopelessness...
in Him I called, His presence I sought...
for His mercy I plead...

Then I learned...

He broke and crushed me into pieces 
that I may be made whole, 
that I may hear and see Him...
That I may know and understand 
the heart of His calling...

He called on me to believe in Him
To learn what it mean to trust in Him
To know who He is and who I am ...
To behold the beauty of His truth...
To witness the marvel of His grace..
His grace, led me in His Grace...

I Love You Love







I love you love 
We used to say...
I love you love
you always say...
comforting 
and assuring me...

But now...
I could only wish
those words  were true...
because 
they are now gone 
with you...



               @Manuelle Augustine 

You're no longer there




You're No longer there...

Though the truth is loud and clear
you're no longer there...
but there are times
when my heart seems to hear
the words we used to say...
the words that kept us 
in all the odds...
the words that once 
comes from your heart...

But, no...
You're no longer there...

In The Wings of Words




In The Wings of Words

In the wings of words 
I take shelter 
from the ravaging storm
of sadness and pain

In the wings of words I take refuge...
from the plundering colors of reality
making my heart see 
how to walk through the valley...

In the wings of words
I learn to fly
through the depth and height...
through the blows of the winds
Of life...

In the wings of words 
I put my heart to rest...
