Ocean Blue
You have done everything
For me to hate you.
But, Darling,
You can read in my ink
That I am unable to
Hate anybody,
Especially you.
This is how God has made me :
Just to love you
Endlessly.*

<3
How would I hate such a loving person anyway?
birds flying in the air,
and
a tiny stream flowing gently,
this togetherness,

below the burning sky of mid-day, below the green unknown tree
the sun and shadow
and myself
and a butterfly,

fading foot prints
remained nothing, in the dusk alone...........

birds, stream, sky, foot prints, butterfly,
never returned......

in the elfish wind
a bottle of red wine
and a safety match.....

drunken mid-day sky.....
---#---

there's a big dark smudge
where your heart has bled
rubbin'out stains with my eraserhead
puttin' in what I want instead
I ignore the scarlet,  rusty red
don't want it soakin'
my daily bread
innocent people
in whiteness wed
I forget all that I've read
all is fine... don't count the dead

can't see the jungle for the trees
we're all dyin' by degrees
we slowly boil... we slowly freeze
we sail in boats
that chug and wheeze
just go on... life's mysteries
are too much for our minds to seize

could you pass another paper please?

we are all in our little bitty boats
afraid taking another problem
aboard will capsize us

we don't realize at times
THIS IS THE PROBLEM!

---#---
Next time you make an empty promise
Shatter it against the concrete
And rip open my flesh with the sharpest point,
Pour salt in my wounds
And leave me to rust.
And then tell me again
How it pains you to see me suffer.
Darling, all this time you were killing two birds
With one stone,
But since when can I fly?

hello
There's someone waiting behind a door waiting to greet me with memories I've never forgotten
There's a window reflecting your thoughts instead of the outside world because I'm trapped in the thought of what it is like in your head
You hold my hand and I know
~~~<@>~~~

his piano
speaks of longing
a few notes in minor key
they tell in perfect
lines belonging
to the fingers

only thee

~~~<@>~~~

Fur Elise
Beethoven
One of the most beautiful
songs ever written.

I used to know how to
play this piece.
I should get the music out
and relearn.

~~~<@>~~~
In my
two eyes, moist cloud
filled with rain
tears and tears, rolling down


you touched with smile
your touch turned rain drops into pearls.


one by one  stitched together
turned into pearl garland,
placed under your feet

tears came down again....
again in my silence.....
