Well, I did.
I really loved you,
But now that it doesn't matter...
I write these words to not feel
Like it did not matter.
You never even knew
Because I never even
Walked up and told you
My name, or that I loved you.
I was afraid.
But here I am, like Midas' barber
I want to yell and cry
But I'd like to imagine
I found a small- yet enough courage
To face you,
In one of days that now only alive in memory
Banish my olden thoughts of doubt
That now reside nowhere
And gently tell you...
that I love you.
But you are not here.
And those days are gone.
And I am not who I was.
And you are not who you were.
I just want...
What I felt all those years ago...
To be more than hauntings
Of something that never happened
And will never happen.
Now I write these words to not feel
Like it did not matter.
Because it mattered to me.

Is it really too bad
to cling to the past?
To want to go back
To the hours that'll never come back
To the faces that will never shine
With the same smile
To the moments which will never unfold
The way they are always told
Who would not miss
An unripe love's kiss
A flicker of a street lamp
At childhood's hour
A multifoliate rose
We picked for you, mother?

There is a brook
No soul is free from
No eye can see,
Pours to no shore
Does not run down any dale
and though atop
lotuses may blow
Its wet strokes give birth to death
upon its tender flow
Then again you can see—
along the glassy,
sharply painful stream—
deceitful willows rising askew,
The yet to be abraded,
The yet to be parted...
But only to follow the already sailed—
Those that once stood in life,
stood before us,
Now flowing through
to nowhere...
The mirrors of our eventual end.
But be not afraid.
The brook, my child
bears no emotion—
no feeling,
cannot possess the cruelty
to relish killing:
apathetic yet unforgiving
endlessly, mindlessly flowing
betrays its own dream of lasting
And not only of yours
and mine
and hers
and theirs
But when our hair
is indistinct to dry grass that whisper
To the scorching winds of summer—
Be not afraid— I once again mutter
for everyone that is
and will be, ever;
may join you
in your breathless slumber
My dear...
Be not afraid
In your mortal terror
It too,
Will be swept away

I was too young,
And too naive
When she went to her
evergoing sleep
I couldn't believe
That she wasn't free
Or at anywhere
But beneath somewhere
That I couldn't visit—
Until I too couldn't feel,
touch or see...
She was always beside me...
It must be foul—
I now can see her face
Hear her voice
Only in dreams unforeseen—
I wish I could tell
I wish I could learn
When she would visit me in my sleep
So I could try to hold her hand
More firmly
Or look at her
More closely
So I could wait
a little more patiently
Or maybe a hint
a vanishingly faint clue
That she hasn't sunk into eternity yet
And she will find me anew
I wish I knew...
To find solace— just a few
Until our next
phantom rendezvous
Is it true?
The death's descend—
Was it really for you?
Leave
Come back for me
And wait for another june

I wish I did not
Succumb to
My whirlpool of thoughts
So I could have told you
I wish you were here
So I could hold you
But I can't.
The clock ticked you away

I see it—
The overthinking and ruminating
Heart racing
Adrenaline's pumping
Veins straining
Vision's blurring
Ears ringing
Hands shaking
Perception built upon
Catastrophical thinking—
Worrying and worrying...
Where has the moment gone?
Is it hiding?
Where is it?
Was I all alone?
Hello, from the other side
Here I lie,
Awaiting the inevitable
Come and sit beside me,
With your thoughts and see
No future remains to fear now
Only the mortal spasms to bear
And the past yet to be forgotten
For me to visit and watch—
The shadows of tomorrow burden
My soul soon to be rotten
And our former body
Now near to be forsaken—
At least make me a promise
Before it comes
Before the undeniable,
The irreversible
The very real and mythical,
Certain but quizzical—
When you face it,
the unpreventable—
You must assure me
You will wear a smile:
A beacon of serenity
And for once you will not succumb
to my old master Anxiety

The past is merely:
Pieces of life engraved in memory
Bundled with mental imagery
Nobody remembers
How it was like, exactly
But I think...
I think I was happy...
We, we were happy
It must have been!
Who am I supposed to be?
What was yours?
Your former life stuffed into a box-
Just to decay?
An afternoon with your dad?
A face of a late friend maybe?
Or a greener meadow
Veiled with snowdrops and daisies?
No more, the details
But the frame persists
The unreachable past!
Wouldn't say was a lot...
Then the time passed.
Now it's a museum of rot

It was a pallid and red afternoon
Everyone would be home soon
Everyone and anyone except me
For I already and unfortunately,
am where I should be
Come by, come by,
For some cinnamon tea
We could gaze at each other's eyes
Despite how sad this afternoon may be
But dont let the small talk
Go on for so long now
Then perhaps you might see
The neverending longing in my eyes

Yes... I understand
Despite everything
I must still stand

In my life,
I've been to places,
unbeknown to me;
often the last time,
then they filled with
new, (and?) foreign faces,
by the tactless
yet unforgiving time
Then all I had,
was the remembrance,
and the longing
for faint
- but somewhat-
aching memories
now floating below
the infinite horizon of time.
