Trail
Mary De Leon
August 23, 2010

I'm drawn into your gaze
as I drown in your embrace
that isn't existent.
Malleable as it is intangible.
Where would I get the courage?
To escape the abyss
of your presence
and succumb to the force
that is pulling me
out of this world,
where neither time nor law exists
no reason for me to resist.

My eyes crawl
on the softness of your skin,
as if it was my hand touching you.
Following the trail of your moles
like a map to the end
of my endless quest for amity,
tranquility and maybe, love.

Hoping with every bit of hope
that if I could find my way
through the maze of you
I'll find- Me.

Nocturnal

Mary De Leon

August 23, 2010

Here I am

Loving the night again

Wallowing in its infinite darkness

Never learning, always yearning.

It's where I find myself

Naked of truth,

Stripped of inhibitions

Immune of lies

Of which I didn't mind

And eager to be part of

The shadow-free night

Where I don't have to hide,

I need not to fright.

The touch of your

Callous hands is enough

To blow away all the worries

Brought by the day

And the truth that lies

Behind the locking of eyes

Tomorrow we'll hide and so on

Until the evening comes
