Time has passed and doubts that grew each day
Yet past memories seem to slowly fade away
Still, I remember it vividly as if it was yesterday
Hoping that nothing has ever changed I pray

till we meet again till i see that sweet petulant smile
when the warm summers breeze brushes against your hair
I hope your kindred heart stays even for a while
until our conversations filled the fresh open air

I wish there was any time in this world for us
but I know you'll leave us forgotten in dust
so smile again my dear lady for the future looks bright
don"t look back it is okay to let go
you're in such wondrous height

she wrote sweet poems
she captures the light of day
and the coldness of the night
as her words waltz to her song
she claims she loves me
but in those script filled sea
she never once mentioned me
for those words once belong to me

I see gentle waters and silence
more dangerous than those disturb
it is often the quiet that brings out the terror
the anxiety that drowns as in anticipation
of our own despair and unknowing sorrows
even if I drift and float by the safe shores
Its wave will carry me away to the depths
even if I struggle I will eventually sink

forsaken with love
cast from above
we relinquish our fears
we've repressed all these years
for a night of elegance
and a bit of romance
so we may all get a chance
to have this one dance
to a waltz of beauty
played out like a movie
for only our appeal
no words can describe its feel
and enjoy it until the end
only to begin again.
under the moonbeams
only imagined in dreams.

It was years ago that we met
By the shining silver sea
Into our hearts love we let
By the shining silver sea
Two strangers together
By the shining silver sea
To love we surrender
By the shining silver sea
Both of us searching
By the shining silver sea
Our hearts they were lurching
By the shining silver sea
You took my hand
By the shining silver sea
And for once I understand
By the shining silver sea
I thought I was alone
I thought I could turn to stone
No one would know
No one would care
But...love will now grow
You and I will now bear
The trials of life not alone
We will have flown
To the shining silver sea.

made of paper and ink
where the breeze whisper
and the night stays and linger

the potion and pills you give
brings fire to the world i see
ink that boils on paper tinder
turns the land to ash and cinder

Raging tropical storms lay true romance to waste
spilled wine seeps and grapes rot on withering vines.
True, chosen few approve of its new bitter taste
even honesty must reluctantly pay heavy fines
nothing more than harsh showers that make us scream
the whispers that ripple and flux from strangers
secret affairs we hold in our rosy charms and schemes
words that we play deceive us that can never be amend

I hear a dark voice
Every time I remember
I feel it rejoice
My sanity it dismembers

Spinning and falling
Down a deep dark hole
A past sad and appalling
I hear the voice take control

I scream and shout
Weeps followed by wails
As melancholy breaks out
I try to stop it; to no avail

The voice coos
Filled with pity and gloom
I was a bird; used and abused
Shot down by my doom

Now I sit here a victim
Cold, lying in the silence
Insanity a symptom
Of my internal war of violence

Numb and dead on the inside
Crouched in fear
My heart races as I try to hide
Oh why can't I disappear?

As the dark voice takes form
I can only stand frozen
The man from whom I was born
A monster I know him

slumber can't keep us in its bounds too long
mornings like this brings hope for the day
enjoying the dawns rising light and warmth
not trying to reason or think about this
just surrendering to instinct
understanding my true self among the silhouettes
that wanders in the corridors of my busy mind
yet moments like this never last too long

A leap of faith
That's all it takes

Would you mind coming with me?
We'll take a walk down the road of my mind.
You can feel what I feel,
Would you be that kind?

I'll take you to a place, Where the beautiful lights dance to the beats of these stars,
And as the waves of love touch our skin,
We'll feel the water curing our scars.

And back our way home, we'll pluck a black rose,
We'll keep it close to our eyes,
As a way for us to remember one day we'll all become memories,
And even the beautiful dies!
Would you come with me?

my people are deep in sleep
they are numb to the cold
yet they dream of liberty and peace
only when they are but asleep
they sleep under a house
that is slowly crumbling
believing only in a dream
but living the nightmare as they sleep

they are silent they are motionless
they are just near to death
but they still breathe they still sleep
as the house starts to fall
and the ship starts to sink

Sometimes holding you is harder than letting go,
Sometimes watching you  is better than talking to you,
Sometimes it's better that we never took pictures to show,
Sometimes I should have been more realistic as I grew,
Sometimes it's fine to sit apart from you than by your side,
Sometimes I still wonder why and how we met up anyway,
Sometimes I think I loved you in the past like a sweet cyanide,
Sometimes it's better we burn the memories we had that day,

I would rather be on my lonesome watching the sky turn gray,
I won't shed a tear for what I lost nor rejoice for what I gain,
Cause I know I loved you but that was just another yesterday.

To know a person,
a person that is alive behind shut eyelids;
a body only present,
able to be physically held, caressed,
but not able to be talked to,
a sleeping soul in a human being,
is the body even human now at all?

To know such a person,
a person in such a slumber,
it is only right to wonder:
how long will it take
for the soul to awaken again?

In rising movement,
And of simple ecstasy
A morning euphemism occurs
Expressing a greater philosophy

"Spread your wings", she said to the vibrant sea
Dyed pink by the sunrise
Extending her arms to the horizon
She embraced the world, the sea, the sky, the space

Revelations and thoughts shot out into the growing light
An empowered voice infused a moment, a single moment
Until the echoes couldn't be heard,
Already reaching the faded stars.

Don't you harden your heart,
don't you walk away,
Don't you hide from the sins you made,
Cause we're here too help you change

Don't you act like your strong,
Don't you act like you care nothing at all,
We are here to hold onto you,
so don't you dare let go

Cause when the storm rages and you lose all control,
We are here if you need a home
so take my hand it won't be too long

Here I was lying on the ground as snow was covering my body
I could feel my blood drained away from my body
I looked to my left and saw my friends' bodies lying lifeless one on top of each other
I used all my force and waited for someone to come but no one
I was all alone
The only one left
Surrounded by bodies of friends and enemies (but were they really enemies)
I tried to remember why was it that we did called them enemies but I could not remember ...
I could feel that I was going to die so I closed my eyes
But just then I heard a sound
I saw a bird there flying up in the sky
A free bird , who could go anywhere it wanted
"Ahhh... What a beautiful bird!" I said.
At least before I go I could see one beautiful thing in this life
A final scene of serene peace on this earth

I meet you at the silver lining of my dreams and reality
I want you there with me
And for me to not wake
For time flows around in this place of truth
So that we may spend as long as we want
Only me and you
At this silver lining of dreams and starlight
It drew us in from our first sight
So that whenever we dream:
we can come to this place at night
From the height of the stars we can see everything
And everyone
But they can't see us
For we are the silver lining
Far above all else

It’s natural to think before -
To ages, gone and past
But "past" can never hold much more -
Than what you thought of last

It seems as though it seems enough
It seems like it’s the end
It seems as though the winds blew rough
Before your wounds could mend

Perhaps you think that all is said
And none that’s left to see -
What lies beyond, what lies ahead,
What we’re still meant to be

When you are born, you are destined to die.
The earth you came from, you will forever lie.
But in your life, you'll have a chance for life.
Not life, for it's claimed by the reaper's scythe.
But in courage, left for us to behold.
Not in blood, and not in gold.
To preserve life is the ultimate reward.
For life is something nobody can afford.

I sit here alone,
Remembering the days that have gone....
Past words and feelings still
so fresh...
And suddenly from the darkness of my room I get the so much wanted cold embrace of Lady Death...
I leave this world behind with a heart full of joy...
I still can hear the birds and your heart beating next to mine...
I get flashbacks from when we were one...
Suddenly I wake up and find you sleeping peacefully in my arms and I think to myself
"It was just a dream...."

And so I watched the sky
where the sun shines
and the birds fly
with such grace and beauty

Flowers bloom
and wind rises
sweet, sweet smell
and flavour rises

its life that shines
brighter than anything
it was her eyes and smile
that burst with feelings

Love comes to me
and stays by my side
it was always her who showed me
what this poem was about

How music flows throughout the warm zealous air,
Well delivered for every ear,
How grand, how optimistic it spreads for all to hear,
It gives us hope so non shall fall nor fear,

It is the art that all men wish to follow the melody they seek,
It blends all emotions of man too its greatest peak,
All the pain and joy in a harmonious union of peace,
Creating a portrait that fades as it folds to the perfect piece,

When I was young I had dreams of the most bizarres,
A flight in starlight and touching stars.
Falling asleep,
Dreaming stars and not counting sheeps.
They do say that dreams can come true,
Just believe and do what you have to do.
But that was years ago,
Now in my space ship cargo.
I pulled down my Astro helmet and stared into my destination,
Filled with bravery, filled with determination.
Clicking and clacking gears,
Waves and greets of goodbyes with saltwater tears.
Spreading my wings of fire,
Flying to my heart’s desire.
Sprinkled stars of light,
Blinking bright in cosmic twilight.

I stand outside,
Cold in the rain,
Who to should I confide,
My bitter pain.

It stings like a menace,
But I'll suffer this bit longer,
Even though it seems endless,
For I must get stronger.

The rain slips down my face,
As I feel my loss,
I wish for embrace,
Despite our bitter cause.

I look into the glass,
And see my anguish,
Time has passed so fast,
I just want to vanish.

I want you now,
The rain mimics my tears.
Now and forever,
I hold you very dear.

I'm but a mere humble soldier
my heart is tied to my motherland
I fight for freedom whilst I forfeit my life
as I run upon the field of death

I do not stand alone in the smog
I do not run against my fate
for the angels guide me
I fight for my honor to which i am unworthy

I do not walk unknowingly
the all this risks I understand
for the lord ventures with me,
each and every day

If the day comes that I fall
I surrender my soul to his warm embrace
remember me not just by name
but the deeds I've done and the sacrifice I gave

I'm a soldier first and foremost
A son of the nation I was born
A friend to all peoples
A comrade of peace and order
A brother to my fellow servicemen
A fierce and honorable warrior
and a servant till the end of my breath
and of my beating heart

Time goes e'er nearer to heart of mine
Shines brighter than how diamonds shine
Most precious indeed, this gem of the sea
Wonder however, how it came to be
Yonder stalks in the furled sails of rice fields
Planted by humble farmers in dearest abode in the hills
Yonder nightingales in the starry night sky
As I lie awake, lying on the grass each night
Pointing to one particular star with a finger
And leading and forming to shape it better
You know what I found?
Warmer than fire, louder than sound
Is the shape of the heart that even though we're apart
I'll find my way back to you
I promise this is true
For as the tree grows in every year
Drink to the hopes that I'll return, have no fear
As the sunset lows darker each tick of the clock
You'll know when the time comes that I shall return, love

And smile a little smile
My eyes can tell you that I lie
Please come help me not to say goodbye

Can you see me?
Can you see me now?
Can you help me please?
Please save me now

I don't know, maybe I never knew
I searched for happiness but I never could
They say it's inside me but all I see
Is a drowning void that I cannot flee

Can you see me?
Can you see me now?
Can you help me please?
Please save me now

Everything is dying around it
Sakura wants to change this world with one petal at a time
Spreading this hope out with pride

Walking forth head held high
Being strong for the world to see her

They used to laugh, they used to play.
Now they cry, wasting the day.
They had friends that supported them, family that loved them.
Now that memory is lost, like a single mountain gem.

How they yearn for laughter, how they beg for fun.
But they only get work that is never done.
How they wish to be free again, to feel the sun on their skin.
But that memory’s gone, like a leaf in the wind.

They work all day, and they work all night.
Always wishing that they could take flight.
Their memories were distant, so close yet so far.
But that’s how things were, and it’s how things are.

when a perfect love comes
you came along somehow
yet you have to walk away
from something so strangely beautiful,
that was meant for each other
still it was never meant to be
though we would risk it all
but destiny decides our fate
but maybe not in this time
maybe in another lifetime
we'll be together and you'll be mine

There's nothing for you to do
you"ll keep on running around
deciphering every soul
every nightmarish scream
until you finally wake up
they'll be a distant dream
but no you're still asleep
until then keep living the lie
full of creation and ruins
even when both eyes
are open or close
you still sense each scene
you hear cold puzzling whispers
from your ear to your mind
not knowing where the voices come
till the sun rises and sets
and the gleam of the moon
your still not there quite yet

With sweet love from me to you
May your days be filled with laughter
Gentle arms to hold you dear and tight
May you feel a certain peace within you
When you retire to tranquil of the night
May you always know the feeling
Of sharing love so warm and true
May you always know how much it means
For me to have a great friend like you

Oh sweet and blissful Helena beautiful flower of this native isle's

Upon my joyful days as a youth that has once transpired

This test you have gave me, I have passed with great ease

The music that has once flowed, now has since ceased

The song's you have sung during the warm afternoon with your lyre

Sadly those grand and wondrous days have now expired

As I leave you in my most cherished memories

I have come to accept this heavy burden with peace

Oh my sweet dear Helena so young and carefree

Please do not be hurt by my words, still smile zealously for me

Our faith to one another has endured long but never enough

Now destiny seeks a different yet a much greater path

Helena the flower from the far tropical east I shall always miss

The days I've been with you has been a blessing

I shall treasure the moment when we once exchange our kiss
