It's a strange kind of love
The waves that are held captive by the sea
Yet to be kissed by the shoreline eventually

her solid feet still travel
the lonesome barren land
the vast savage grounds
she holds in her heart like fire.
with pride she walks and dances
through the dark, through the flame
she leaves her mark but never lingers
oh, she is only with the wind to stay

if it does not leave me bewitched
terrified to the bone
give me that sensation of unease
right before a fall
if my skin does not live its seasons
the chill of winters twilight
the warmth of its embers
of homecoming during a storm
if it’s not like the crash of waves
against bare rocks its devoting mark
full of trembles its withholding
before the bursting ******
Love, you ask?
if love isn’t all that, I don’t want it
oh, I don’t want it at all.

When I lift my head and meet your eyes
Everything in the world is put to shame;
Deepest of seas, widest of sapphire skies
Are all an insult for where is their flame?
You make the sun blush even at darkest of night,
The moon glow more with each upward stare;
Ironic how you'd pick up a sword in a fight
For the most deadly weapon you already wear.
I carefully look at you from across the fire
You answer me, holding my weakening glance
A smile - you know exactly what you are doing;
You expose me, reveal me, won't give me a chance.
I take a deep breath and crash like the waves
Feel myself powerlessly washing ashore;
I know I am helpless as I again drift back,
And tenderly drown in your blueness once more.

I abandon the path and mark my visit
deep into natures greens and hidden groves
how the beauty of everything intoxicates me,
and consuming it all leaves me only with no sense:
speechless and bewildered, like a baby.
words seem but a lost cause to me ;
it is almost as if the ferns and its charms
don’t want to be spoken of –
not even a praise.
upon astray land I leave my trail
up the thick pine hill, down the lonesome glen
I sit desperately, in search of only half a word –
it makes no difference at all.
a hint, a hum of frigid air
deep twilight falls upon me like a star
and I fall with it into my own silence.
the hypnotizing haunt of crickets in unseen places
numbs me, almost becomes me
and I become them, like everything becomes
the other thing that lives in its own way.
and just hearing the wise creek babbling,
the traveling breezes’ secret murmur ;
I know I have been unaware all along.
the poem was never mine to write:
I have only to listen.

And the wind will keep blowing
And the trees will keep growing
And the birds will keep singing
And the vine will keep clinging
And the cold will keep biting
And the storm will keep fighting
And the days will keep passing
Because nothing waits for anybody

The stars, your eyes, mingling, glistening
Shivering tongues, softening, intertwining
The gentle trembling of warm fingers
The wet air is filled with whispers
Crimsoning cheeks, the blushing of lips
Hot sand caressing soaking flesh
The velvet sky slowly sinks, darkens
And falls upon our shadowy figures
Round silver moon gazing over playful skin
We laugh, we bathe in its ethereal glow
Fearless hands searching, finding, exploring
pearls, treasure, long lost secret land
Not long until like the waves we crash
Dressed in thick foam to wash ashore
Sweetly softened by the silken sun, we melt
Into the heat of the golden morning.

I love your mud-drenched country lanes,
Curious bonfire smell in deepening woods;
The crimson skies overlooking the plains
Absorbed in the years most nostalgic moods.
I love your wild colours, waltzing flowers,
As much as your withering and decay;
Your mornings as much as your long, dark hours;
The night far as much as the blushing day.
It is true I will love you, for as long as you
Won't forget to return once every year -
Dear autumn, I think I'd love you still
Even if 'twas your last time being here.

the passing cloud in pale blue skies
the ocean wide that drinks your eyes
the sailing storm one summer’s day
the rain to kiss the blush of May
You
the growing rose in winter’s frost
the secret smile no sight wants lost
the lonesome tree down by the lake
the breeze that makes its foliage shake
You
the touch that is with sunlight crowned
the voice in which the sea has drowned
the stare which makes the moon glow more
the long lost wave to kiss the shore
You
the distant sigh that calms the screams
the hidden glister among the beams
the unseen path amidst the vine
a love for which the dreamers pine
You.
