The thunder
the lightning
a furious storm passes.
Samuel Lombardo Sep 2014
Where I am,
You will be?
Where I should be,
You were not there.
Where I would be,
you did not see.
Where I am not,
You are there.
Where I should not be,
You are there.
Would I be,
where you say
I should be-
even when I could be-
where we should be?
I figured where I am-
I will Find My Way!

In this light,
I can see the spirit
of happiness.
No darkness-
in fact, I have gone
away from darkness.
I seen some green pasture.
There were too many weeds
along that trail-
no way! I cannot grow
seeds with busy grounds.
It is the pasture across the way-
yes, over there are wanted seeds.
I see dead seeds
the seeds which were planted
are now uprooted by
Your own weeds you let grown.

Where are you?
I do not know-
but, what am I?
I did what to make
...this happen?
I should have done this?
I have been where?
Are you there?
Can you please help me?
What secret do you hold?
Why are you not here?
Who keeps you away?
When do you arrive?
Is there anything I can do?
Why all this hate?
Wait! Did you say, right here?

For the Beauty of the Earth
Only one can see-
You want true love-
Find him!
No, not me,
but he is in my heart, too.
You want true love?
Take the bullet for a friend-
is only part of the situation;
it is more like being
mocked, ignored, lost, and broken
But I found him-
Oh yes, I found him-
the one who made me!
Ask him, why?
In any case,
My love cannot measure to him.
Who can die for me?
I know it is not you-
yet, I can still talk with him-
why?
Because he sees something in me.
Why can we not love like this?
We must understand what love is before preaching it!

I was left on the wayside;
it was only temporarily.
In fact, for a while-
I was hermit;
and when I met you
my heart opened up again.
There was a breakthrough.
Someone in my life-
of the past-
very confused, lost in love;
and yet, still blames me-
In reality,
I am the book unfinished-
"Unfinished Business!!"
How is it then
You think you know so
much about me?
A suspicion?
No, that is what brought
You to this lesson.
Never believe what you see-
Question your heart-
And know where your mind is!
Please, I ask of you-
A legacy was warned
because of suspicion-
a talk from confirmation-
yet, nothing but your story
was told.
This story is getting
boring- nothing but meaningless
nonsense that only
incriminates who you are.
This is not a story
about who you are-
this is the story
representing where you are.
The truth is
It was not that I liked you-
but I made you learn
a lesson-
never to trade what you love
for the loss of another.
I am still making
my legacy-
where are you?
I am not saying anything-
there are ears
who hear, but only
see what they want to see.
I am not worried about
feelings- the feelings
the love of a person
Only I can still forgive
the moments in life
who thought of me
broken me of my life.
Do you think it is worth
the worth of finished business?
Unfinished Business only happens
when you are able to
guide yourself to success.
How do you define?
Is everything lust?
Why was I judged so harshly?
Where do you stand?
You stand on a road to
broken and bare tree limbs.
To lead- one must
Be-Able themselves to personalities
And Characters.
You want a lesson on love-
Deal with the source-
Love's  not from suspicions,
lies, and confirmations
Those of a past who
should have been gone-
I no longer view them,
trust them- nor
will I allow them.
They did enough to my book-
This book was not
suppose to have
love and suspense-
Your life was business-
A friendship wonderfully
made- other most
important with value.
Unfortunately, you
have a new reality-
a reality that has been
brought to you-
the answer of broken heart.
Am I a friend, you ask?
I will say, a friend does not need
to harass or stalk-
no, but when they are
around- and you are hiding-
the darkness is what
keeps me away.
Understand, you are
the problem
which must be solved-
and you are the light
in which we will all learn.
Get your life down the
path of righteousness-
there you will see your
dreams over a rainbow-
and fountains of life
springing before you-
and trees filled
with so many leaves
You will surpass all
this promise, if only
you can stop
abusing power with freedom.
There is free will and choice;
but how many of us
use our choices wisely.
The lesson here-
stay away from suspicions-
the darkness of confirmations
to void your legacies and dream-
and become dependent-
in yourself;
understand that there is more to me
than what you have already lost.
I am leaving this story;
in-ended, because
this story has a sequel-
A sequel of righteousness,
faith, love, peace-
and understanding-
a new beginning-
a promise of legacy-
and forget the book
that passes-
there was so many empty pages.
I can almost re-write
the phrases, but that will
bring me back-
and I am not going back.
Time to move forward.
This is not obsession
nor lust- this is
a new found promise-
a promise of legacy
and friendship.
Understand that love
is friendship; and without love
there is darkness;
you want to shine-
learn to love.
This poem is for those who were either not understanding me, did not understand my situation, or may have known me in the past and have totally judged me the wrong way.

There are words
not  known
only you think
you know the words,
but  in those words
of  suspicion
was  your lesson.
Have you thought
the leaves on
your tree were ripped
out, but rearranged?
Yes, there is one
one  whom no lesson
will be learnt
to  frowns of guilt.
Like  the fall,
we eventually
get back up...
The  springtime  
is promised
the awakening
of a new life.
There are pages
to  be edited,
others should
be ripped out;
while other  pages
in your life-
are the hardest-
ones that remind
You of pages
not to be ripped out.
What is left-
with only a cover,
and  a title
without no words
finished?
These books are
not  to be  judged,
but they are the
pages to be filled;
these are the  lessons
You must learn.
Stop ripping
Pages out of the book,
or You may never
Show words
new beginnings are
promised, but you  must
read through  the  
Whole book to get
Whole  story.
