Is it because you are far away, This need of feeling you is so strong? If we were together, could I have resisted, The urge to crush you against me? Hide my face in your soft hair blowing in the wind? Rest my head on your shoulder and breathe in Your body smell touching Your neck with my lips? Keep my eyes closed feeling Soft touch of your fingers On my face? Wish I knew how you feel! Wish you feel how I feel!

Question Mark So Sweet!
I want to be a bird – to fly far, far away, And feel the fragrance of little red flower, No! my fluttering wings will hurt her, I won’t be a bird, That bruises her soft petals. I would rather be a bee Sitting on her sweet smelling petals, Feeling her softness No, I won’t be a bee, That will tread on her – and soil her purity. Dream! My hopeless dream! Fly around her, don’t wake her, But bring her sweet smell So she won’t know I breathe her sweet smell In my hopeless dream.

My Hopeless Dream
Empty seats in the library Disappear One by one. Mind, lamenting Absence of the sight Pleasant to the heart, Is like the mist-covered mountain top That lies beyond. No vacant space, Heads bent low, Word absorbing eyes, still My empty mind Floats aimlessly Over the fluttering pages. Light of my world! Rise over my lonely heart, Like dew-soaked morning rays, That dissolves the mist On the desolate mountain top.

Absence
I step out into the garden and let Dew-soaked moon, Among glittering stars, pour its pale wet light over me, Same moon, same light touch your face in a land unknown, In the moonlight I feel your smell, I feel your hand in my hand. I step into the sea and let rolling waves kiss my feet, The same waves that kiss your feet in a beach unknown, In the soft, warm waves I feel your touch caressing my face, Waves roll back with moonlight taking back my feelings. Be the moon in the night sky that bathes me with soft light, Be the gentle waves that roll softly caressing my feet, As the moon kisses the gentle waves far, far away in the horizon, Roll into my beach, just to touch my feet before retreating again.

Moon and the Waves
Wish I were in rain, Getting wet, Without roof or cover. Wish you would appear, And bring me under your umbrella. Not big enough, Forcing us to cuddle against each other, Thrilling me with your fragrance. A raindrop trickling down your hair, Drops on my face. Feeling in that raindrop, Trickles down, And deposits itself, In the deep of my heart!
