Drinking poison to thaw the frozen
numbness suffocating the beating hollow
in my chest

sometimes only a few, more often enough to
paralyze my field of view

one liter of cider and three songs of lana del rey
in the dying sunlight the birds feel comfortable
and i
i just want to have fun
for once in my life.

in the starless sea i found my supernova
enveloping me in a warm haze of light
forever and ever and ever and over
happy.

no one understandy me anyway.

Part of life lives in current moment
The wind
The tree
The earth
For hearts to feel

Part of life doesn’t know where to go
What’s the next life will bring you
Could be a garden
Could be a heaven
You could never expect

Part of life has no end
It goes on with its soul
Like clouds turn into rain
Rain turn into a lake
And a lake turn into clouds
The soul, the water never ends

i have nothing else to say but i don't want to leave

I would travel the whole world on foot, if you were waiting for me at the end of it.

QUARTET OF HAIKU

just as the sun sets
if one turns in time to see
colors of life shine

her smile held me fast
illicit-flawed, by chance meet
of 10,000 days saved

out of night looming
two car lights careen, into
a dark road will reveal

carried by water
of echo repeat, on the verge
voices call out, to haunt
