Sometime... Somewhere...

By Roy Dela Cruz

Sometime… somewhere…
When everything is in its place
Not now
Maybe not even in this lifetime
But sometime… somewhere

Let me savor the pain
Let this heart bleeds as it may
No bitterness
If this is what I have to pass
I welcome it with open arms

Tomorrow’s not too far
Pain will not diminish the desire
Heart endures
As vulnerable as it is
It is stubbornly resilient

Insistent longing kept… withheld
Until comes the right time
Fate prevails
Believe it will happen
Sometime… somewhere…

Painting Words

By Roy Dela Cruz

If I were a poet to paint your beauty
You know I will do it with all honesty
Though with paints and brushes I cannot do
I will use words that can only speak true

You are a face so young and so innocent
With a smile to cheer even a weary heart
Glowing eyes that can only be you
And a hair gently bathed by midnight hue

Your hands are soft like that of velvet
A walk like a swan, so graceful and fine
A voice that bespeaks of youth and innocence
And the rare, rare charm of a real lady

But then you know that words are not enough
To paint a picture of your enchanting beauty
Cause yours is a beauty more than words
  could ever speak...

You really are beautiful

Don't Ask Me Why

By: Roy dela Cruz

Don't ask me why I love you,
I just do.
I love you not because you love me back
I just do

Although I may not say it,
Sometimes It may not show,
But believe me,
I do

I love you not for the caring
Nor the thoughtfullness you've shown,
Not for being there
At times when I'm low!

Not for taking care of my children,
Not for making me a home
and not for being patient
of all my imperfections.

Please don't ask me for reasons
'cause I don't need them at all
Because loving you is itself the reason
And nothing else matters anymore

So don't ask me why I love you,
Because I do.

Roy is now into poems and short stories, just like his blogging friend Doc Z . This passionate blogger is a versatile writer as evidenced by the different niches of his blogs: He has a business blog, a reflection blog, a random thoughts blog, and many more. He could be serious one minute and then crack a joke the next. There is always the satisfactory feeling of "Eureka" - the "aha" syndrome - when one gets to read his diverse posts.

I admire his natural propensity and ingenuity for writing; and most of all I salute him for striving hard to fulfill his one most significant role in this lifetime - that of being a good and responsible father to his three kids.

To Roy, I give you a standing ovation!
