Our Nature
Erik Luo May 2020
The fear of our nature
Has the love for the future
And the tears of our pasts
Can only be taken with love

To the horror that we each face
Inside the depth of the sorrow gaze
With the language of love and hate
Spoken by a higher name

What mystery is there to solve
What beauty is there to see
What shadow is there to chase
What dream is there to forgive

In the deepest part of our heart
We hear the calling of the void
Filled with unspeakable love and hate
To the end and the beginning

Out of fear
we loved,
and out of love
we feared

The Mask
Erik Luo May 2020
The mask of what we are
Have covered our sins
We wear it from day to night
To look past existence

Sometimes the mask carries
All the ***** secrets we have
Sometimes it holds onto
The beauty and dreams that have passed

Some of us
Realized they have a mask
And others
Wearing them without a touch

The self struggles deeply
At the depth of its own identity
But to what degree of self-acting
Will we learn the truth of our own playing

The mask that holds us
Switching from the void to the map
of the journey towards our own destiny
and the experiences we had

In us
We know
We are

The Path
Erik Luo Apr 2020
The path of our soul
is drawn between time
To the flower of the eternal
and the water of now

To what flow
shall we see the color
Of the suffering that carries us
and the beauty we saw

To what shadow
shall we chase tomorrow
to end our desires
and feed our sorrow

To what effort
shall we let go
to make up our love
or the hate that we spoke

O love
to what length will I go
to show you the void that we know

To be here for the living
or dying to the craving
of love

Listen
Erik Luo Apr 2020
Listening in the rain
of the voices of our pain
To survive this night
with enough fear to blame

And what we often said
Before we give space
is the pain that we faced
and the gate that we closed

To what degree of pain
shall take our heart to the grave
To **** the love with fear
and ****** those in the rain

Yet when the gate is free
and the mind is open
we can hear their pains
inside the rain

and as the water fills up our shoes
We can finally hear
the screams of others
and the love they carry

Listening for the first time
The heartbeat of the sea

Existence
Erik Luo Mar 2020
Blessed by thy ignorance
is the beauty of our sad love
And the cradle of heaven
has grown to separate the past

The wordless whisper
and the heatless touch
To turn our body over
And spit out our guts

Locking your fingers on mine
Like the sea of wombs and death
The tips of our tongue, moving with ice
Like the fire in our ***,
Unified

The passing of our existence
has more love than heaven
And in our struggles,
we see the touch of creation  
together and apart
as existence...
Mar 2020 · 91
we are...
Erik Luo Mar 2020
And maybe is time
For me to die
Under your arm
With warmth and light

So perhaps today
Is just the time we thought we needed
To be in this place
or time of our dreams
But we are
We are

What is there to say?
we are
We are
We are!
We are!!
We are!!!
WE ARE!
WE ARE!!
WE ARE!!!
we are...
Mar 2020 · 95
we are
Erik Luo Mar 2020
Huge me
So much that I disappear
Touch me
So that I can feel the breath of your hair
Kiss me
Like the water merging into waves
Hold me
Like the arms around you and me

What exists
is like the madness in our dreams
From the darkest thoughts
to the living infinity
There are our cries and shouts
our pains and anguish
But also our tender body
Merging with love
All around us

What I can see
is not what I am
What I can feel
is not what I am
What I am
is that I am
And nothing more

The infinite need for love
and the path that brought our hate to us
are the same path that is leading me to you

The flower that you touch
and the stars that you make up
Are the prove of your existence
the songs of our perfection

Can you imagine non-existence?
In a reality where you exist
Where your body and mind
is all you have ever known

What would non-existence feel like?
Is it cold?
or dark?
or empty?
or alone?

Or is it just me and you
And we are this
And we feel whole
Without you or me

Nothingness
is infinite

And we are
and we are
and we are...

human existence
Erik Luo Mar 2020
It is weird
to think about life
as an outsider

But when the nature
of ourself
moved into awareness
The time passed without knowing

Perhaps we don't want to know
The truth about our being
To see or feel existence
without a mask or key

Many have passed
infinite, actually
Of all the secrets and paths
We desired this the most

Being here now
We realized
we know nothing

And that is a blessing
For the love we have
can't be known by any path

The language we use
over time and space
In the hole of nothing, and infinity
We danced, to remember that

And life as a human
Seems so full of pain
To live in the unknown
and cry when we feel lost

Yet
There lies an intuition
that this is what we asked for
That we are the creator

And through those struggles and pain
We moved the stars and the masses
To a place that exists only in now

To realize what we are
To be in this
human
existence

Struggles
Erik Luo Feb 2020
Struggles

Is it the times when we are lost
Or felt too true to love

Is it the creature in us
Or the fire of our past

Is it the water of wishes
Drowning us weightlessly

or the baggage of god
lusting for powers
That has left us dying
Without seeing clarity

I sometimes feel
The need to feel love
And thought of the past
Merged to now

The love that we seek
Has made us bleed
It has killed and died
Through the desire we have

Yet it is love
That is life
Without the struggles
Our love will be mundane
Without the struggles
The happiest will be lost

If we draw a picture
Of our highs and lows
We will realize that all is love
And while I write this poem
We are rippling across to each other
Saying all the crazy things
That we know so much about
That we are
Life

Thread
Erik Luo Feb 2020
The thread of elusive dreams
Have died many times before
As the mind speaks the truth of silence
The heart sings it’s course

I have been here many times before
To take the thread and connect the shores
But somehow I am missing
The lighthouse, that guides the desires
of my own hands, and the masks I wore

As I searched, I drowned in the water
of the nature of my own desire
And as the heart floats above the sea
leaving my body without a dream

I realized
That I have given it to you
I have given my dream to the sky and the stars
So that I can feel less pain

But I know you are protecting me
To keep it safe before it’s ready
As I walk through the circle and back
You will hold my missing link to the past

Until I see through the sky and the light
And connect the thread to that unknown dot
To realize the cycle of beauty and life
And living in here, to be a part

of this grand piece

Today is the day I die
Erik Luo Feb 2020
Today is the day I die
And I have seen the world as a fly
With rainbow colors and falling leaves
I dropped down from the heaven keys
As I jumped, I fell asleep
With all the angels and all the dreams
The life of the moon and the joke from the stars
The tiny moments as I cried out my hearts
To look at the earth and take my ring
And throw it to the seven seas
And grabbed the knife with my only knee
And sliced the apply from the golden tree
As I flow through the streams
The open doors begin to chase
And I died trying to slip through
To wake up and see the song playing too
Until the light of time fades away
And my existence begin to pray
For the thing that started all of this
Is what you and I called playing games
As I dream, I see the end
Of your kiss on the tip of my lips
I walked and danced through the path
And flew through the bottle cap
As this endless thing
We begin to feel pain
And then as pleasure and joy covered our name
We went back to being again
We went back to being again
Jan 2020 · 36
What shall we say
Erik Luo Jan 2020
My light
is so bright
That it is blinding sometimes
Like the whispers in the dark
Hiding from love

And what shall we say
To comfort our sorry souls
To not feel sorry
For the other's vote

Life is what you are
And light
is the darkness that has passed
So when my past shines
Don’t be afraid
of my love to you

Soon, I hope
That you too can shine
the darkness inside
And let me see myself
with you inside

Whole and perfect
Happy without worry
Then we can just love and be
together
in bliss

Love
Erik Luo Jan 2020
No matter where I go
I always see you
No matter where I look
I always know you
No matter what I do
I am doing it for you
No matter what I feel
It is my love for you

You are the trees and the sky
the night and the light
the voice and the cries
the face and the eyes
the bottle and the wall
the paper and the claw...

I walked down the street
and saw you
so I turned the other way
and saw you again

I walked back and forth
without time
til I forgot who I am

As I see you again and again
Not knowing sometimes
The line between us
faded away

And everything becomes clear
Of course it is this way
It has to be
It just is
Love
Jan 2020 · 42
I slept for a day
Erik Luo Jan 2020
I slept for a day
And felt your soul in my way
So I woke up in silence
And died, in peace

But the other room might stay
To turn the light on for another day
With me watching
It passed in pain

Soon I will see
What the light has to say
With the rings and fires
Burning with desires

To what name shall we blame
For the dying of another day
With the promise of tomorrow
And the grief of all the pains

What looked
was not me
Singing its song
til the very end

As I wake up again
And saw
The will of my being
existing
without pain

Only to remember
is all a dream
Jan 2020 · 145
Another night
Erik Luo Jan 2020
Let the moonlight dance away
And let the fire breath its life
We are here to sing this song
of you and I in tomorrow's land

The night is bright
And the wind is light
Those who have suffered
can now rest

Til tomorrow
To wake in grief
of the self that has tried

The halo around the moonlight
Watching over us
As path in its love

And the smoke in the eye
Might have cleared the night
Away from the light
of the candles
of all of us
remaining in our heart

So as we return to life
We may love
and cry
another night
Jan 2020 · 55
Light doesn't know time
Erik Luo Jan 2020
Did you know?
That light doesn't know time

The things you see right now
as light shooting into your eyes
are the same ones
since the beginning of existence

What we are
as lights that exist
Have traveled so far
to meet each other
in this life
To kiss and hug each other
so deeply
To **** and fight each other
so painfully

The light probably knows it all
All of our secrets and love
It has seen the future and the past
and it is rendering the present
The light and shadow
created the shape and colors
of us

And together
we lived
but to lights

It has always
and will always
be us
Jan 2020 · 79
Is easy to see
Erik Luo Jan 2020
It is easy
to see separation
To feel the pain of existence
and ignore the pain of others
To see people as something other than you
To be something other than them

It is easy
to look at others
as wolf look at prey
To treat others
as an animal to its food
To ignore what our heart is telling us
And act with fear and suffering

The living is seeking
the forgiveness
of those who are dead
And asking to be permitted
to live without guilt
Not knowing that creating suffering
through the desire to end suffering
will only lead to the endless repeat
of more suffering
for the self and others

If only we can look deeply
And feel our being in our heart
Feel the love we have
So much love that we can conquer anything

It is easy
to see separation
because we are all there is
But perhaps
we are moving
with the path of god
to learn to love

to see unity
over separation
to be what we desire so deeply
to love each other
without limits or fear

The reality of things
Is that it is all love
Even the worst crime or sin
was done through the desire for more love

If only we see this
And we do
We just don't know it yet...
Erik Luo Jan 2020
I used to own a bottle
of pieces of my self
And as I grow
The bottle broke
Like stars making out

I used to own the hat
of the likes of us
And sit in comfort
As we hang
on the ceiling rat

I used to own a book
of people I love
But time
Tore it apart, over and over
without care

I used to light a fire
of my passion and heart
As others take warmth
Without their sorry faces
Smiling in the dark

I used to see a light
of life as it passed
but lately I see
The shadow that's left
Swallowing my whole

I used to own a lot of things
Now I own nothing
And maybe that's who I am
Maybe that's the pieces of my love
as I am
without you...
Jan 2020 · 43
What we sought
Erik Luo Jan 2020
What we sought
As the dying of the lustful desire
Is present
Without a doubt
And the birds of lakes of mountains and seas
Is present
As we speak the truth

What we seek
Is over our head
And below our belt
It is in the room of light
And the box of void

The sorrowful light
Whispering to me
Without the caring voice
Of a year in repeat

The idea of us
Is over the top
Of our heart
With salt and sugar
Laughing with all its will

The vengeful thought
Of a dying light
Is inside the highlight
Of what we seek

As the look of the past
Is left without love
and over our shoulder
It cried without tears

What remains

Is a flower of sorrow
And a treat of love
As we saw the shining window
With leaves and greens
Below our feet
We jumped
And fell
Under a world of desire
Jan 2020 · 75
I used to search for you
Erik Luo Jan 2020
I used to search for you
Used to think about
how we will love and hug

But lately
The idea of you
is fading
And I am more than present

I used to look for you in the mall
And search for you in the dining hall
Used to see you in the park
And a glimpse of your back in the crowd

But lately
I stopped
Because you are right here
I feel you right here
The love of our life
is right here

All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
All I ever searched
All I ever sought

When I look down the street
or open the window
or sing in the forest
or swim in the lake

I see you
right here
I feel you
right here

The bliss
of loving you
is right here
There is nothing
more to need or want
But living here now
with you

The being of existence
Erik Luo Dec 2019
The being of existence
is weird and scary
As it laughs and cries
We realize our lives
is all a dream

The being of existence
is okay with dying

And the song of a lifetime
Is never finished singing

As the numbers and pictures show
the light and shadow of us existing

It is crazy
to think our being
exists in the first place

To live under the bridge of time
And die without surprise

The being of existence

Happens to be griefing
over the passing of our life

But at the same time
It smiled with ecstasy

In awe
with the being of existence

In a time
so beautifully lived
Erik Luo Dec 2019
In a timeless corner of a small cafe
The brick walls and the moving people
Sitting
where time is okay with being
and life is okay with living

The light of what's here
shines
without worry or fear

As people drink and eat

We talked and sang

As I looked down the hall
of people and light
passing and waiting
in time

The song might be playing
The people might be drinking

In this small corner
where everything is happening
without our name

The path of vengeance
or the way of pain
become so unreasonable

As the water and heat
flowing downstream
with money and laughter
singing with all the people

Down the hallway
built by the brick walls
echoing to me
without pride

But this moment
In this small timeless cafe
Writing without thinking
Might be the freest yet
Yet
We lived
and laughed
til we saw
this hallway of a cafe
passing with music playing
and sitting as we decide
Where to go next
Dec 2019 · 86
Is hard to make a choice
Erik Luo Dec 2019
Maybe we need to decide
Before we think
Maybe we need to act
Before we know
Maybe we need to live
Before we die
Maybe we can be free
Before we realize the truth

Perhaps it hurts
Perhaps we know

That our choices
are already made
That our life
is already lived
That our pain
is already felt
That our love
is already in the past

Is hard to make a choice
Knowing our life is all ahead
And love
is all here
Erik Luo Dec 2019
I like to see without my glasses
To see the world in a blur
But with newfound beauty

The clearness of things
Often take away their great shape
As the light becomes a halo
they shine, with a million miracles inside

When the world's detail fades
And the sound of light becomes clear

The world feels like a better place
When I see it without clarity

To see faces without their expression
To be loving without any protection

I am more loving
when I see without my glasses

When I see
without judgment

When I love
With all of my being...

To look into your eyes
and not be afraid to look away

That's why I see without my glasses
to see your beauty
entirely
Dec 2019 · 64
Is hard to know someone
Erik Luo Dec 2019
Is hard to know someone
and be alive
To see others
without judgment
or criticize

Is hard to know someone
and be in love
To live with them inside
and sing with our being

Is hard to know someone
and make them understand
what you are here to do
what you are here to say

Maybe we just don't see
the love in each other's eyes
And maybe we just don't feel
the time between us passing by
Maybe we both agreed to love
but realized we are already love

Hope
of a life
with you
but fails
to say
without
the rain
over our head

Is hard to know someone
and not give up your life
Not seeing life together
and broken without silence

The idea of us
will fade away
like how we used to know each other
deeply we heard
the life we lived
We sing and said
It was hard to know you
But I love you still
With my broken heart

Emptiness
Erik Luo Dec 2019
Emptiness
Lives in nothingness
Yet it has the imagination
To become anything

It can expand infinitely
Into all directions
It can exist eternity
Without losing a breath

It wants to know itself
So it even started to be

Sometimes it understands
The pain and suffering of existing
Sometimes it laughs at itself
For believing in the dream it created

It may have all the colors
And maybe it knows more
than what you and I can comprehend
But deep down it knows
The existence of all and nothing
The happiest and saddest moments
of our lives and times

What is here
is emptiness
And what will be
is also emptiness
You can say it is not bound by time
or it was the one created time in the first place

So perhaps
We are empty
Because we are emptiness
And searching for love
To feel the emptiness more deeply

However
The emptiness knows
That even the sweetest love can have pain
And in the greatest pain there is love
So it just gives up
And become a song full of existence
As we danced to our death
It laughed
And started, the next dream

I can see in the dark
Erik Luo Dec 2019
I can see in the dark
After some minutes of silence
What was pitch black
Is filled with silhouettes

It happens often
When we enter the dark
At first we can’t see
But slowly we are used to it

To see clearly
We must not scream in fear
Or pain

To be
And surrender
To the darkness
That is
Then we can see
Even in the dark
For we know
That our eyes are nothing
But a mirror
Of what we perceive
And what we are

I can see in the dark
Can you?
Erik Luo Dec 2019
I am writing this now
To feel you
And the love between us

Though we have never met
I know you are thinking of me
And I think of you too
Thinking of all the small moments we are going to have
A nap in the quiet summer garden
A dinner at home with wines and bottles
A song that we share to remember our dreams
And a coffee in the morning to just be
With each other
We love so deeply
To see the future
And live it now

I can feel you
Like a ball of love
Dying to come into my life
And live with love

Maybe I am crazy
And maybe you don’t exist
But it doesn’t matter
Because I know
Our love is stronger than that

Across space and time
We have kissed and hugged
Before meeting in this life
We have shared so many others
We grabbed onto each other
And moved so close
That we became one

Maybe we laughed
And thought it would be funny
To not know each other again
To forget each other
And fall in love again

To the girl I will one day meet
I know you and I are meant to be
And I can’t wait to love you
As I love me
More deeply

In time
I shall wait
And be
With you

Life is a bubble
Erik Luo Dec 2019
Life is a bubble
it is fragile
but beautiful
With rainbows and colors
looping in time

It can break and pop

It can fly and grow

It lives in an instant
Reflecting life
inside the light

It moves up the sky
To touch the sun and the cloud

But dies
without reaching
the dream of a lifetime

Perhaps in the next life
It will take the sky
without breaking its beauty
or life

Growing larger and larger

Until we are inside

And we hear
the music of life
With rainbows and colors

Knowing that
the bubble
will soon pop
and we
will soon
pass

Hoping the next bubble
is just as beautiful

A leafless tree
Erik Luo Dec 2019
A leafless tree
Standing bare and still
In the cold wind
Watching life pass through

It is cold
or sad
Its branch
Waving like the streams
With every body exposed
under the sky

A leafless tree
Might be naked and free
Over our head
without the rain

And as music play
And people stay

The tree
is overjoyed
to be

What does a leadless tree feel?

To exist
without cloth or warmth

To be naked
as other parties

To brach out
and be seen
to every
creaks and turns

To be known
So bare
To live
So still

But maybe there is beauty

to live as a leafless tree

to let the sun and the moon
touch you without worry or suffering

To let go
and be seen
naked to the bone
and be still
be happy

To listen and watch
as life pass by
as love surrounds you

and be
a leafless tree
in a dream
of nothing but love
Dec 2019 · 78
Reflection
Erik Luo Dec 2019
The reflection of life
Happens in an instant
Though small
has ripples
like a drop
into the darkness

The time
has passed
And we
have fallen
from where we once were

The sight
of the light
reflecting back
over our past
with wrinkles and scars

And when the elder’s light reflects onto the newborn
The love of life might have sunken under

But soon we will see
A reflection so bright
that we died

And as the light pass and fade

We stop and love

As the reflection

Of a life

Lived
Dec 2019 · 98
Sky
Erik Luo Dec 2019
Sky
When I look at the sky
I say I love you
The blue
Simple but varied
It holds a space
For the sun and the light

As I see halos
Showing me the way
To sky’s idea of play
With the clouds
Changing and moving

It holds a space
As the wind blows
With you under it

It is vast
And if you have the chance to look up
As if the sky is the only thing you see
You will see
Your own body
In that blue ocean of silence

I love the sky
For it holds everything inside
The earth and the space
All wrapped without limits
Perhaps I can be the same
To take in everything without limits
To watch things as I change from day to night
To love with my colors and light
To be
With the stars and the moons

I love you
It said back to me
As I feel the warmth of the sun
And the gentle wind that touches
My heart
Feels as if it is opened like the sky
My being expands towards it
Blue and white
Without me
Just
the sky
Giving its love

To you
Dec 2019 · 156
I look into your eyes
Erik Luo Dec 2019
I look into your eyes
and see your face in pain
For you are dying
form the joy of seeing god

Oh my god
You said
and paused in silence
As if you stoped existing
for a moment

But your beautiful eyes
reflected the whole existence
With me and everything in it
As you suffer
from divine bliss

I see the light in your eyes
and felt the love that killed
my sense of being apart

I know who I see
and who sees me

I take a deep breath
and held it in
Feeling your energy
flowing up into the void
above my head

Oh god
Oh love

We fell into silence
not knowing what time is
Dying and being alive
Together and apart
Loving each other
for now
and more

So before you close your eyes
Let me be with you for a little more
In one moment of eternity
We shall be here in bliss
Together

Reality is a circle
Erik Luo Dec 2019
Reality is a circle
It is infinitely long
and always round
Ending where it begins

We are all running on it
Towards what we think
as the direction of faith
But ends up meeting our own selves
in the direction we oppose

The circle is a being
Full of tricks and games
And as we walk down to rest
We are trapped inside

Until we run so far
That we see our selves
Weeping or dying
On the street

And what’s real
Might become fake
Reality
Might become a dream

Like a circle
Ending where it begins
Until we pushed so hard
That we fall under it
And become
A mirror
Of a reality
Which the circle lives
Dec 2019 · 86
True Faith
Erik Luo Dec 2019
True faith

comes from the love of life
To give your self away
Without doubt or fear

To know that all is well
and love will win it all
To hug without care
And kiss with all your wills

To see love with life
and live as you are

True faith

Does not care for god
And it loves
as god's will
A faithful being you are
and see the living as death comes

True faith

is a love so strong
that even god can't trump
A love so strong that you become

God

True faith

Lies in every moment of life
Quietly whispering in your ear
Telling you to feel
Without worry
Its love for you

True faith

Is outside of time
And travels
through cause and effects
Ripples above and below
To the self and all, at once

True faith

Might be hard to understand
Because it is the being of us
and the face of God

True faith

Is living this life
as you and I
and dying to love
as God

I look back at life
Erik Luo Dec 2019
I look back at life
At all the moments of hope
All the Moments of faith
All the Moments of love
All the Moments of grit and strength
Though small
But bit by bit
Brought me through hell
and lift me high like a flying angel
A metamorphosis
of the ages

And everything seems clear
All the struggles and hurt
Was to feel the love more strongly
To have the strength to love
without fear
or limitation

I hug myself tight
And feel the warmth
I love, I am
It whispered without doubts
Though the body is cold
The warmth of love is so full
Completing my own prophecy
of a life worth living

I give away death
and I give away pain
I give away the struggle and the ache
I give away all of my beings
Purge my entire existence
into infinite love
Timeless
Whole
And happy

For existing
For being
For loving
For trying

I love, I am
What else is there to say
Just love
Just be

Maybe I will see you
Erik Luo Dec 2019
Maybe I will see you
from the other side of the door
Maybe I will know you
by the edge of the shore
Maybe we'll meet
In the sky among the stars
Maybe we'll just be
a flower in the sod

And when my hair
flows
on my skin

And when the wind lightly
blows
on my face

I see the sky with
purple
and red

and the fire
dancing
on my eyes

and I sing
and feel
all
my beings

and others are whispering
into
me

and I feel
your love
into
heaven
on earth

and I know
my life
is complete

and I see
you standing
by the fire

with the light
blowing on your face

and your rope
that cross
in the yellow
and the gold

in the fire
with warmth

and you flow
with the wind

as life
passes
you by

and when time
gets you down
you go up

and you smile
and your beauty
your grace

took me away

into a
land
of unknown

and a song
I embrace

and I dance
moving my head

my hair flowing
wild
and free

and I feel
your presents
under the stars and the moon

I know you are
I know who you are

and this moment
of time
will never
begone

eternally present
forever and ever

and as we grow up
and grow old
and die

we will look back
and see the fire and the sky

and when we
sing
the song
of life and love

forever and ever
without
a breath

then we will dance
in that
divine void

forever and ever
until
we are all
one

and when I
feel
my love
for you

I know

I know

I know

and when I
feel
your love
for me

I know

I know

I know

I am
here
with you

and
forever and ever
without tears

and as the stars align
as the universe stays

we'll both be
in each other's
arms

much to one

perhaps
you see
the fire
that we're in

the beauty
and grace
of this life

and when you feel
the wet
tears
down your face

as I know
your love
in my heart

and maybe it will rain
and maybe it will snow
and maybe the sun will
never comeback

and maybe we'll die
and maybe the sky
will become so
so
so!
so real...real-
reality
reality!
reality!!

as love
and you
and me
and all

reality

our reality
in god!

is infinite love
is just you
and me
and all the
things

and we dance
and we cry
we laugh
and we fight
through the eternal
soul

and perhaps
today
you can look me in the eyes
and tell me the words
that you are here
to say

so that
I can
remember
who
I am

so I can
be
of your love

and in that
nothingness

we sing
of this song

of us
of life
of death

and when
we say
the words
the truth

we say
we say
we say
we say

we sing
we sing

this song
of life
and we know
that we are
all
just one

and we know
we are
we love
and live

we die
we cry
we sing



this song of life

The world is a lover
Erik Luo Dec 2019
The world
is like a lover
It brings you gifts
Like the darkness and the shore

With playful teasing
it brings you pain and suffering,
and make you aching with joy
when you are alonely and depressed

Yet it loves like the moon
and the sky
Shining bright but not blind
The sun on the other hand
Is also the world
Giving the warmth and colors
For the birds and the flowers

So when the gun fired through the dark
And the rain falls on the shore
It was the world that loved and cried
to the core

Oh lover
you make me see
the path of death
so clear and bright
Oh lover
You make me weep
For the love of life
in its grace and beauty

And when you love me
I died on the hills
And then I feel
your hugs and kisses
wrapping all around
infinitely
Until my body is gone
and the blood is drawn

I hear you sing
With every pain and pleasure
Words of silence
Songs of love

The wind and the waves
Erik Luo Dec 2019
You and I
are like the wind and the waves
One pushes, one flows
Creating ripples
That bend the light
Into the cycle that called life

Sometimes gentle
Sometimes harsh
Sometimes with leaves
Sinking under the surface

In a lake
or a river
or the sea
we danced and loved
through lows and highs

You are invisible
but you make me wave with love
Until I flip under and over
Nowhere to hide

We create and destroy
We hug, and we fight
In every second
United and separated at once

So perhaps is alright
For without you I can’t survive
As when the wind stops
The wave too dies

Live to die
Erik Luo Dec 2019
When the moonlight take your breath away
And the tree leaves shade your light
I whispered into your eyes
With nothing but me inside

When I lay on your lap
And I see the sky
Limitless and edgeless
Existing in time

And when you shine on me
As if my being expands
I sit in silence
And smile without try

So as I die
My self dies
All to merge
with you to one

As I sleep in you
And you sing that song
I begin to dance
With all of my joy

All of your trials and success
All of your hopes and dreams
All there for me
As I become void

There is nothing to say
Only being you
And live to die
Erik Luo Dec 2019
When the night falls through the sky
And the sea waves through the land
I stood before the light
And saw a darkness inside

When time comes to mind
Colors and senses return
I look down the path of darkness
And walked down, with light inside

Soon I realized
That I was not walking
And the darkness, is the light
With me inside
walking out...

A duality of eternity
With music and dance
All the points of reality
that forged this existence
are beings like you and I

Perhaps we can look at the moon
and drink some wine
The game that we play
are all but one

Let me see you in the mountains
and hear you flying in the sky
The life of us is ending soon
in about eternity time

And when we crumble into that dark night
Knowing all is love inside
Whole and perfect in every way
Living this mortal life
Dec 2019 · 127
I look at the fire
Erik Luo Dec 2019
I look at the fire
As if frozen in time
The dancing flames
The purple sky

They whispered in the dark
words of love and care
I feel their being inside of me
dancing and moving with the song
So is the fire there
dancing without fear
It knows no heat
and feels no pain

I stared into the light
and let the fire fill my being
With the infinite others
In this moment
for eternity

And maybe my heart is full of love
Or maybe the view is just too true
That my smiles and laughter
Echoed through the stars

This is it
This is enough
This is life
This is us

As my mind fades
My soul merged
I have nothing to say
But being love
As a fire
dancing under the purple sky

Realize Now
Erik Luo Dec 2019
Realize now
That you are a human
Living on this earth

That you chose this experience
out of infinite others

Be aware of your mortality
And know that the time here is brief
The beauty and greatness of love
is present in every moment
It is the thing that built existences

Among the infinite lives you have lived
You are here now
For love
For the lifetime of searching
for who you are
Infinite love

And when the nothing merge with everything
When all light fades into darkness
When all being returns to emptiness
You stood before the void
And look back at your life
And realize
How magnificent it was

So live!
And love!
And be!
The love that you are
For in eternity
You will smile when you look back
At this moment in time
With nothing but joy
Erik Luo Dec 2019
There is a light in the middle of the night
It shines and sings the song of heaven
The god of all is right here
Singing this song into your heart

We are all love
It sings through the valley and the sea
We are all one
It sings through the wind and the sky
We are all here
It sings through the night and the void
We are all whole
It sings through the space and time

When I open my eyes
And see the light that shines
I realized what I am
A ray of infinite love
Piercing through the darkness
Into everything and nothing at the same time

When we see heaven
We live in heaven
In the valley of god
In the breath of love
We are whole
We are love
We are...

Being this existence
Through all the pain and suffering
Through all the love and joy
All singing a song of the holy being
Of you and me in eternity
In infinite love, we merge into one
And dissolve into the nothing that we are
A song of infinite love and light
I love you, it said
Endlessly

The Poem of The Ox
Erik Luo Dec 2019
I search for ox of the land of heaven
Swiped and yelled but no avail
I am innocent and ignorant
Blinded by my own existence

Until I look down and see footprints
I followed and ran without attention
Is this the ox of the heaven?
I shall see when I have a glimpse

A glimpse of the oxtail
I ran and chased the ox through the hill
The faster I ran, the more ox I see
Through the battles nowhere to be

The ox I see
And the ox I catch
But its strength
Keep me off balance

Then the ox is tamed
And everything seems complete
But it was the self that cannot see
That the ox was no enemy

Upon that realization
I ride the ox as its friend
I sing the song of love and joy
On the way home to heaven site

I see the ox no longer there
And I let my being run its course
The ox appears in everything
And the self began to pray deeply

I prayed in love and joy
Until the self and the ox merge to one
No more chasing or seeking
Only infinite nothing

As I return to being
The root is now clear
The beauty and love of all things
Colorful and joyest forever without end

So I laugh, and I sing
For the ox is me and all things
I walk down the path of mortal life
And know that there is a heave inside
Erik Luo Dec 2019
When your light shines through the tree leaves
And your breath swipe the world
I hear you calling to me
Saying I love you and more
But tonight I wish to feel
Your body dropping on me
As I sing the song that we were born

But today is another day
And you are here like always
From your light, I see the source
An infinite love that Maricle works
Maybe I see you right now
And maybe you see me here
But it doesn't matter

I love you you said
And I feel my body begin to merge
Into that light of infinite love
Appear and disappear all at course
Falling through the deep sky
And see the stars that all align
I feel your love over and more
And eternity we are here for sure
So let that being live with me
And feel my pain and suffering
For you are the one and only being
And I am you forevermore

I am
Erik Luo Dec 2019
I am me.
But who am I?
I am god.

But who is god?
God is you.

I am you.

I am love.
I am fear.
I am happiness,
And I am sadness.

I am the soul, the body, and the mind.
I am wealthy and poor,
The beauty of the world.

I am love.
I am god.

I am who you are.

I am what you choose to be.
Whether you choose love or fear,
I love you.
And I know you love me.

I am the flowers.
I am the sea.
I am the sky and the clouds.

And I watch you,
And I love you,
And you love me.

You love me so much that I become you.

I am grateful,
For being you,
For being love.

So much love,
That everything becomes love.
Even death.

I am you.
I am god.
And I love you with all of my beings.

So live,
Live as if you are me,
Live as me!
Live from the love I give,
Live for you are my most beautiful creation.

And be,
Whatever you desire.
For you are my love,
And I am your being.

I love you,
Eternally.

Raindrop
Erik Luo Dec 2019
When I speak to you
Like the rain drizzling on your skin
It hit your body
But it can’t reach your soul

I wish you can remember
The rain that you were born
Because your body might be wet
But your heart is already dry

Let me reach you
With a drop of love
And let that cold drop
Warm the heart of your soul
To remember who you are

A raindrop
In the sea of my existence

The poem of everything
Erik Luo Dec 2019
I am the greatest evil.
I wrote this poem.

A wise man once said nothing because he knew no matter what he says he is saying it to himself.
He is the sound itself
He is the time
He is everything
He is you

All arguments are meaningless because you are arguing to yourself.
Is all a joke.
A giant brilliant joke.

Like everything I’m afraid of is me.

You realize just how hard you are trying to fool yourself.

Like time is everything and everything is time.

This is so stupid that it is smart.
This is so bad that it is good.
This is so evil that it is holy
This is so beautiful that it is ugly
This is so true that it is a false
This is so brilliant that it is dumb
This is so funny that it is sad
This is so good that it is bad
This is so me that it is others
This is so crazy that it is sane
This is so big that it is small
This is so high that it is low
This is so perfect that it is imperfect
This is so impossible that it is possible
This is so normal that it is a miracle
This is so fun that it is boring
This is so hot that it becomes cold
This is so down that it becomes up
This is so light that it becomes dark
This is so good that it makes you suffer
This is so touching that it makes you cry
This is so life that it becomes who you are
This is so meaningless that it becomes meaningful
This is so great that it becomes evil
This is so much love that it becomes hate
This is so much pain that it becomes the pleasure
This is so hard that it is easy
This is so fast that it becomes slow
This is so great that you want to die




This LIE!!!
All of it!!!
Is so ******* beautiful!!!

Like I am every infinity of a second.

The fact that people pertaining to be like they don’t know each other allows them to know each other.


Like you want to make everybody know this is the you.

We are each infinite individuals.


Let’s keep going
This lie called life

Let’s keep going
This lie called time

Let’s keep going
This lie called self

Let’s keep going
This lie call love

Let’s keep playing
This game of lie


At first, you are questioning who you are, then you are questioning who is questioning who you are, then you are questioning who is questioning you questioning who you are.....


To become everything is to become infinity, to become infinity is to become one.

I am the art that is trying to make the art to art themselves.

I am the lie that’s trying to lie to themselves so they all think that it is true.

Everybody else is just me pretending to be someone else.

We are so enlightened that we unenlightened ourselves.

Like how you wrote this poem just now.
An old poem from a few years ago, the second poem I ever wrote. It is all over the place and very chaotic without a lot of descriptions. Still, I think I tried my best

A train of thought
Erik Luo Dec 2019
Life is an infinite singularity in a single point of nothingness.
Art is a mirror for one to see their soul.
Self is an infinite illusion.
Love is an infinitely selfless act with a selfish motive.
Fear is an infinitely selfish act with a selfless motive.
A thing is an infinite nothingness.
Everything is infinite nothingness.
Nothingness is infinity.
Nothing is nothingness, not even space and time.
Good is a single perspective that created bad.
Bad is a single perspective that created good.
All meanings are meaningless.
Meaninglessness creates infinite meanings.
Truth is false within time.
False is truth within time.
Time is causality within space.
Space is infinite nothingness.
Belief is the fear of being wrong.
Being only exist in the present.
The present time is all the time, and it doesn't exist.
Existence does not exist.

— The End —
