We
you are my sun
in my dark

and my stars
in my light

you are me
when I am not

I am you
when you're not


we are both together...
and each together we are...
when you can feel you in someone else and the else feels in you, trust me, you are no longer " I or YOU " but " We "

I never not ache like this
The back of my mind is
Ringing like a church bell
The somber sound of
A drizzling day's funeral
I need to find some more music.
In the middle of the night
You see nothing
As the darkness fills
Every corner of your eyes
As you lift your head's up
Billion of stars shines
Like what you've wished for
Closing your eyes
Cherishing every moment
Before it vanishes in your mind
Before things you wished
Wouldn't happen
And gives regrets
For the rest of your life.
when you stay
because you are afraid of losing what you had
you do not lose
the past
you lose
the future.

be brave.

i’m pretty sure
   that the u n i v e r s e
is not what
we think
it is.

I don't mind the way things are
I have some new friends
We're smiling again
Things are better for me
Life keeps moving
Staying isn't so bad after all.

We are the rise and fall of cities
So carelessly demanded
Sheathed by night
Gilded with stars that lend us
The illusion that our world
Is still whole and beautiful

What a cyclical facade
This seems to be
All faded tones of rose and gold
From our first light
To the fall of the last empire
We are but wounds
If I end up using this, and you, my teacher whose last name starts with a K, are reading this, then yes! I did actually write this. It's inspired by Borges and Rilke (especially his poem "Landscape"; pg. 109 in the book you lent me). This poem actually means something too.
