Tell Me
 Apr 2016 PS
Eliza
Tell me where I failed
On being your friend
Tell me when it ended
And how it all began.

I tried to brush off the fact
That you stabbed me in the back
I knew and my heart was bleeding
And it was bleeding for you.

How hard must it be
For you to be stuck with me
That you had to pretend it's okay
For me to be your friend.

It's okay now, I forgive you
Just be honest and tell me the truth
Did you mean what you said
When you promised never to leave me
Just like they all did?

I guess by now I should know
But it's always easier to be comforted by a lie
Than be slapped with the truth
That you did not care
Not once not ever.

I opened myself up to you
Something I do not often do
But you betrayed me still.
Tell me,
What did I ever do to you?

Crazy is a fallacy of the sane,
                   Used to mask their own pain.

Love
To you, my one and only unknown love, I bestow unto you my heart and burning desires.
I've dreamed of our wedding day, and much more to come.
But still with a blank slate, for you, my one and only unknown love.

she is the north wind
carries rain,
clouds and fog
then turns to spring breeze
filled with fragrance
and rose petals

she sits on the clouds' shoulder
weaving songs from sun-rays
the sky dances on her tones
she smiles and the stars melt

moonlight,  In her sweet slumber
winter's sun, once awoken
she shines and I feel warmth
she is my princess and my queen

I tell stories about her
sweet fairy-tales
I'm a crazy man
so wrong am I?
every day,
she is a different story
and I, a different lover

Because,
she is my wind
she blows from east,
and from west
through my tree
all around me

and sometimes
she stands still
in complete silence
my heart stops
a moment passes, a decade
till the spring breeze comes
she sits there, again
on the clouds
singing her song
blissfully ignorant
