I felt death looming behind me, as dark as the night sky, as thick as smog.
I clung onto my dear life like the last autumn leaf clings onto its branch.
Death's cloak swishing dust under my feet. Her icy breath freezing my bones. Her skeletal hands outstretched to snap my neck in two.

Pondering if I ever fell in love with a city.
Have you ever loved a city? Did the city love you back? Have you ever loved a city and left?
.
.
Tried being octasyllabic this time.

Ever tried loving a city?
And ever did you long to be,
The dimly lamp of back-alley,
And eavesdrop illicitly.
Ever did you fancy to be,
An early winter blurring smog –
Refuge for the asthmatic love,
Albeit stingy with some cough.
Ever did you feel playful like,
The rain-filled wobbly pavement tile,
That splashes the naive suede shoes,
Paint them muck in nice earthy hues.
Ever did you fall so deeply,
Beloved city become you,
And you become her gleefully.
Have you ever loved a city?

If you don't love me
Say it to my face
I will not believe you
Write it on the sky
I still won't believe you
Sing it in a song
Post it on your wall
Curve it in stone
I still won't...
©iamsmog7 0I believe
I believe that we are not all equal
That we are creatures of purpose
I believe in A God
A Master story Teller
I believe there is a devil
a master of all evil
I believe in love
An emotion Rooted in our existence
I believe in pain
The reason for our existence
I believe life has endless possibilities
You can never be too sure if anything
I believe that 2 extremes are just alike
The result of each brings out the other
I believe too much is never enough
I believe too little is also never enough
I believe in choices
Limits set to produce result
I believe in consequences
From which life gets to continue
I believe sadness is based on circumstance
And that happiness is a choice
I believe that death is the end
The final page of a written story
I believe that death is a beginning
A Begining of a new story
I believe in belief
Without which life has no meaning
I believe...
©iamsmog8 0 1Meet me halfway
Meet me halfway
We have come so far to start again
Here where you and I are
We can do it
Overcome this pressure
It's this that makes us stronger
Hold on because we are worth it
Apart is our never
Together our forever
Meet me halfway
Before you go too far
Before you become history
What we had is what we have
We haven't lost it yet
We will not loose it
Because here is where we are
In the middle of something beautiful.

Still waiting

Caught in the web
Of the head.
Forming smog,
Over the mountain.
Leaving them scared
Of what lies ahead,
And what steps to take.
Hold back
To refrain from being further entangled.

©iamsmog9 2 1Kiss me
Kiss me
Underneath the moon shine
Tell me you love me
Kiss me
Take my breath away
Suffocate me with your love
Kiss me
Do it like never before
As if our lives depends on it
Kiss me
Do it slow and do not stop
Do it now I feel it is all we got
Kiss me
Then kiss every inch of me
Remind me why I am special
Kiss me
Kiss me then do it again
After you I do not want another
Kiss me
Just kiss me darling
Show them whose am I
Kiss me
Oh baby just kiss me
Because that is what lovers do
Kiss me,
Kiss me before you go
And when you return kiss me again
Kiss me
Darling just kiss me...

Looking at the man in the mirror
Is this what we have become
So disappointing,so pitiful
We could have become more
If only you listened more
Who...?
Me...?
No you on the other side
If only you spoke less
We cannot even feign laughter
This pain is Soo great
And there is no one but us
You and me on the other side
It's a pity we are all alone
You and me against the world
How can we face it after
Like before chest upfront
Oh where to start....?
Smog
©iamsmog7 0Hhhhhhh
Shut up please,
What you say is nonsense
Cover that mouth
I need some fresh air
No...no...speak not
From your words I tear
I get nausea I will die
Shush! shush! your words are fire
Drink some water clean that pit
I can't take it
God is this how I will die
Better the dead can't breathe
Perhaps I'd be better off
Not a word please...no!...no!...nooo!
If you speak I will scream
Smog
©iamsmog6 0Sleeping alone in the middle of may
The cold is colder than cold
I toss and turn with no one to hold
Sleepless chilly nights with pattering rain
I remember last year and the year before
Still a similar situation to this one at four am
Lonely matured nights with a poem or song
I got a name for me now, The bachelor of spring
A perfect season for a her warm embrace
A season to cuddle and bond with a lover
Yet here I am in solitude with words yet again
Smog
©iamsmog5 0Love in summer
Imagine just imagine
One more time
The sweetness of fantasy
Something we can't resist
The Possibilities perceived...endless
Imagine the perfect two
The sun shining, the sky blue
The cotton clouds, just right
Good music playing in the car stereo
The wind caressing over their skins
Not cold, just cool
Severally she stands to feel the breeze in detail
Takes a deep breath and stretches her arms
He spanks her behind in a friendly way
Interrupted moments of meditation,
It's a challenger convertible
His left arm firmly gripped on the wheel
Once or twice they hold hands and kiss
When bored she lays her head on him
He wraps his right arm around her
Kisses her forehead she smiles
The music plays faithfulky
the car zooms past a truck
They stop at the red light
The truck driver honks at the young driver
he makes the challenger's engine roar
It's a challenge for the challenger
The green light lights up
The two race on the one way
She screams, he laughs
They win but split at the cross roads
The two in love heading somewhere
Now outside your mind
Come to the realization
You are just imagining.

I took my time
Wrote you a poem
You told me you hate poetry
I took my wallet
Bought you lunch
You tasted and left the rest.
I held my pride
Begged for your love
Yet you told me no
Finally I embraced my rage
I mind my business
Then you smile at me and we re-cycle

Jesus
Three nails one man
A story told retold
Still never gets old
Each time a reminder
A reminder ,love is the apex
Apex right from above
Above all nations
Above all thrones
A Sacrifice a barter trade
An unfair one if you asked me
A death for so many lives
And in all these
It's the power
This is what's amazing
His life for countless
Life, a privilege
To some point ignored
Humans are we not
Forget the heroes
Enjoy the freedom
and That's life in two
With every sunrise
A past in build
A wall to hide truth
Then the truth is a theory
Slowly a story
Almost gone is His glory
But eternal is His story
The Blood,the pain
The betrayal, the denial
And the story is faith.
The story is love
©iamsmog5 0I will never give up
I will never give up
If I Fall 1000 times
Then I will rise 1000
My faith is limitless
My passion insatiable
I can I will never quit
With or without in or out
I am going to make it
I am not perfect...no
Imperfect in every way
And that is why I will
I know the move after
I know the move before
Failure is just but a teacher
That is why I rise
I rise above the pain
I rise above the guilt
I rise above pesimism
I rise above everything
I have not made it
No not yet
That is why I live today
To make a bedtime story
To Inspire the dreamers
To prove impossible
Is indeed impossible

©iamsmog7 0We are survivors
Son do you pray?
Then a lie I never had to tell.
It is easier that way,
Without the belief in hell.
When did we stop?
I even question the existence.
It felt good to hope
But now it's just resistance.
Who is to blame?
Now I only trust in me.
Life has become a game
And I choose what to be.
What if there is?
I guess then I am doomed
But, would life be as it is?
Well this flower has bloomed.

©iamsmog6 1Bullet for valentine
I want it unconditionally
Like most mother's to their offspring
Without reason, without logic,
This is the real one,
Not because,
just the way I am,
Just the way you are.
When asked why
The answer is I just do.
Even without
Its still available
A far-fetched fantasy
In a wretched reality
If I can't get it
Better to live without it
Call me crazy
But what's the use
To have but not
I just want it raw
Like the first for every one
The one that changes everything
The one perceived naive
I want real love my darling
Can you love me that way?

©iamsmog5 0 1Human being
To be human is to want
More and more without contention
To be human is to want
Want that that you have not
To be human is to want
Better than the rest than yesterday
To be human is to want
Want like your neighbor's like your master's
To be human is to want
Want some want all
To be human is to want
Want unwant then want
We are just humans being

Five forty five
My phone alarm
Faithful like yesterday
Like the day before
Like everyday
It's a new day
Like any other day
Same old
Same new
Same routines
Successive actions
All leading to more
This' what we call life
Repeated monotony...
All in search of meaning
