I can't rip what I sow
I haven't planted all year
My garden...
Empty
And it's good
Because it never rained
Out on the scorching sun
My soil dried
Even the grass died
And as for my cherry tree?
All those flowers
They fade away
But when the wind blows
The branches of the Walnut tree
Oh I can hear
I can hear they sing Your name.

Oh Spring,
when rain falls from clear skies
disguised surprise,
Sunshower

I'm swinging it away
I'm giving You a hint,
I'm buying her a dark green mug,
Sugar-coated fairy plum.
Crystal drops roll down her face,
I give her presents,
A pile of things,
Shiny, sparkly, golden rings,
I buy her ships to sail away
So she could leave me any day.
All those days she chose to stay,
Every night I hear her pray.

Over Your body the clouds go
High, high and icily
And a little flat, as if they
Floated on a glass that was invisible.
Unlike swans,
Having no reflections;
Unlike You,
With no strings attached.
All cool, all blue. Unlike You
You, there on Your back,
Eyes to the sky.
The spider-man have caught You.
Winding and twining their petty fetters,
Their bribes-
So many silks.
How they hate You.
They conserve in the valley of Your fingers, they are inchworms.
They would have You sleep in their cabinets,
This toe, and that toe, a relic.
Step off!
Step off seven leagues, like those distances
That revolve in Crivelli, untouchable.
Let this eye be an eagle
The shadow of this lip, an abyss.

I **** fire with fire,
I drown water in liquid,
Bounded by my ties are earthly,
My father is a whirlwind.

He used to hide things for me
In the microwave
Or under a pile of serviette
In a metal room
Where I hid to eat
I ran away from all the heat
To talk about familiarities
He used to give things to me
On long working days
Chocolate ice cream,
Mixed with kindness
Served with dreams
Talks past midnights
Evening shifts
And when you were gone
My Mom told me,
That some things fade
And life moves on
Feelings shift
New plans will form
And loosing someone will keep you silent
But the things you gave me will always be kept.

Phthalo blue
You know I loved you
When the stars came out
And you painted them,
And when they disappeared
You left with them.

I run from Becky,
She won't follow,
Lost to Jesus,
I live in sorrow.
I dwell in pain,
I shed some tears,
Change for the better,
But I'm still afraid
That I'll have to
Live without her,
Haven't seen her
Since last November,
I try to forget,
The things she shared,
The pain she left,
The way we met.
I think of her
And let her go
If you read this Becky,
I love you so
In this ache,
That I put myself in
I decided,
I run to Becky.

Put your head under water
So you can hear the sound
The water makes,
When your feet lose the ground
Places where I'm bound.

This is going to be hard,
She turned to me and said, in the dark,
And now my hands smell like Christopher.
I can’t go home, and it hurts to stay,
I wake every day just to pretend and play
And now my hands smell like Christopher.
I feel trapped by some people who love me,
And those who I love, hurt me,
And now my hands smell like Christopher.
I feel ashamed, for I can’t cope with pressure
But how could I live, if I cannot stress her?
And now my hands smell like Christopher.
I hold onto things which I should let go of,
Memories, letters, pink palms and photos,
And now my hands smell like Christopher.
