Some poets recite their poems to the moon, But I'm afraid to do the same, For I know the moon would abandon all the stars, And fall to Earth, Just to be closer to you.

Why I never write about you in the moonlight
I love the moon, but I would never expect it to love me back. So I do not mind that you speak to the moon of him alone. My happiness comes simply from the privilege of receiving The light in my eyes that bounces off your body.

So I'll love you like the moon
Do you want love? Then be gentle. After all, You can't hold hands, With clenched fists.

She said to me
Summer comes back every year, But never brings back those summer days. It's autumn now, yet I felt something familiar In the cold morning air. I think your kisses meant for him, Got lost in the wind And found their way to me. Your lips still think I'm your lover, Don't they?

Those summer days
And it's strange because you are gone But the love has grown rather than faded Like flowers growing on an abandoned path

Pretty things in a ruined place
Today I visited the park we used to play at I saw the swings we sat on And it was strange Because I saw a little girl With the same eyes as yours Seated on the same swing You used to sit on long ago And next to her, you were there Holding another man's hand

The park we used to play at
I love you still even if you don't know it I wanted to tell you that I married a man I never met before On our wedding night he took me to bed He called me his flower While I was withering away When he touched me I could not feel it And he asked me if I minded his touch I said "no, I would never" Then thought to myself "why would a corpse care for the maggots in its body?" And I drank something I promised you I wouldn't And tomorrow morning I'll be back in those fields We used to play in when we were kids Because I asked of God in a prayer once Let heaven be when I was just a child Before I knew that what I felt about you Was called love

Yours is the only soil that keeps me alive
I spent the whole day thinking of only you, That the day stayed still. And tomorrow has yet to arrive. And do you cry for the days you lost? Wasted on what wasn't mean to be. Maybe one day the sun will set in the morning. And maybe one day you will love me all over again.
