MY FLAME

(haiku)

He's fire, red flames on
Incinerating bridges
To my distant past

A newfound blazing love.

deep against straightforward
tell me
how we would not collide
between the profound and the superficial
let's meet
in a place called compromise–
somewhere an edge forms from two sides
somewhere a promise can be found

let's form edges and create frames of our love?

THREE STEPS BEHIND

one
two
three steps behind
She'll be there
until your ghosts finally disappear
three steps behind
She'll be watching
your shadow walk away
and your feet leave their tracks
then finally fade into the crowd
one
two
three steps behind
she will turn her back, yes she can too
three words, a beautiful sound
one two three, *I loved you

Happy international women's day to all beautiful, strong women out there who are brave enough to finally let go of her past.

GIVE ME LOVE

Am I a fool for believing in love
or am I just Me trying to strive
Eitherway a beast awakened
Eitherway I felt the pain
Oh I've been asking, Dear Lord
*If love is cheap then why can't I afford?

THE VOW

I'll be there for you
Five words to ease the blues
–the promise

I'll be there for you
Five words with faded hues
–the lie

Gone with the wind
None is what's left
Done and now,

–the vow:
Five words to set me free
Five words, this time I'll be
I'll be here for me

Trust and believe in yourself first before others.

ESCAPING THE HORIZON

There are birds in the ocean
Little white waves on a wide blue cape
They kind of swim, kind of fly and kind of dance
Little bright hopes trying to escape

Though I try to,
I can only catch them with my eyes
Though I want to,
I can only reach up to where the horizon lies

See there are birds in the ocean
Even though we know they're meant for the skies

Sometimes we want to make decisions but these decisions are stuck inside inhibitions where they can't seem to find an escape.

DEAR LOVE

Dear Love
Like a flower on the ground
I stand on my own
I look up and watch the stars at night
And count the rays of light in the morning
Day by day, Dear Love, like a flower
I keep on waiting
I miss the soft caress of one wind
And long for the cool breeze of one breath
Whispering in my ears
Tingling the nape of my neck
And I, like a flower waving and swaying
Turning and then bending
As if beautiful music is playing
I, like a flower on the ground
Dear Love
I would dance to feel you around

Hi, Love. This one, I wrote while waiting for your return. Never really thought you won't.
