LOST SOUL

by Alan de Luzuriaga

(A song ; originally written as a poem - 1993)

Why do I feel lost

Whenever I'm alone

Why do I feel blue

When I am on my own

Listening to the Radio

Spew out songs of love

Words of comfort

Like raindrops from above

I don't know what to do

Don't know what to see

What is it I am looking for

O what I am to be

I gaze out to the heavens

Hoping that I'd find

Whatever I am looking for

My soul, my piece of mind

Sleepless

SLEEPLESS

by Alan de Luzuriaga

(7/15/1993)

Eyes blinking

Lights glimmering in the

Wee hours of consciousness

Wind

Blowing through the room

In a force so shattering

Papers, laid across the floor

With printed names of friends

So long ago

And now so remembered and heard

We are here

In frames of glass

With thoughts

Unknown and unsaid

With stares of uncertainty

Into those who look

Look and see

Square Images

And Square memories

Waiting to be embraced

For Eternity

That has yet to be
