Deep in the pink,
I want to sink.
Delicate petals of flowers,
Accompany my lonely hours.

Deep in the sea,
I want to flee.
The blue fathomless brine,
My haven my shrine.

Deep in the sky,
I wish to fly.
The luminous stars' light,
Brushes away mundane plight.

Deep in the heart,
There is no art.
Emitting a volcanic fire,
Where grows no rose-briar.
O my desolate being,
Make me solid matter!
Cease my consciousness
Into pieces I will shatter.

This sense of torment
So painful so unbearable,
This human life only hurts
Creating unlimited trouble.

If I become hilarious,
Grief starts stepping,
Tears fill my eyes as if
Life is only for weeping.

O sands of Time,
Make me particle!
I can't bear this burden of life
It's a cage, an ornamental buckle.

As autumn begins entrance,
Nature shows its elegance.
Lovely catkin and air,
Make their artistic pair.

Lotus opens her mind,
Can sky remain blind?
Moon the silver fairy,
Looks drunk cheery.

Mountain sends mail,
White clouds sail.
Dewy morning flowers,
Attract beauty viewers.

Delicacy all around,
From sky to the ground.
Colorful leaves fall,
Making allured all.

Living in earth,
On a burning hearth.
I apply on it,
Imagination a bit.
Then it looks amazing,
Basically it's blazing.
At moonlit night,
Imagination and reality fight.
Who is the best?
They participate in test.
Reality is furious,
Who makes all curious?
Imagination asks in tears,
Who spreads fears?
If there were no imagination,
Life would have lost motion.
Imagination makes all fly,
Telling despair good bye.

I walk through an eternal fire
Being a born myth holder,
Life is a meaningless arrangement
An attractive poisonous oleander.

We think of an imaginary world
But meet only emptiness,
At last devastating fate transforms
All happiness into sadness.

Who are you sailing a boat
Through rough waters?
Laying an illusory net of love
Where everyone totters.

An invisible player is playing
The gruesome game,
All the creation bows to death
That makes all inevitably tame.

How much do I love you?
Like the vast universe constant new.
O bird, my bird of happiness!
Without you earth is grey lifeless.

Why is pain so illusory?
Touches veins like spring cherry.
Wet clouds get burned by lightning,
A Sahara is concealed behind my clothing.

Feeling you brings me fragrance of flower,
Feeling you makes abode in golden bower.
My morning, noon and afternoon takes hue,
And adorn the magical twilight just loving you.

A river of nectar overflows its two sides,
In the deep a goddess of eternal beauty abides.
I hold a cup of everlasting love in hand,
Still encircles me self-made desert sand.

Thinking you my days and nights
Flied fast in the past,
Now my moments are in love
With trees, stars and skies vast.

Now my pigeon of happiness flies
Against tempest fast,
Grief moves anti-clockwise and
Dies in sea at last.

At eve, fairytale starts in my bird's nest
Between owl and skylark,
South wind performs fabulous ballet
Hence it bears restless gemini-mark.

Now my melancholy glows like diamond
Green emerald-trees radiate sprout,
This heart dares to live in the arid desert
It's funny to burn that in mild drought.
