I travel in your fair thoughts As though to travel in your world. Sometimes, I try to understand Why your eyes cannot reach me. Sometimes, I do not know you but-- But still I want to linger Like I truly know you.                   Shyly, I intend to blanket you with my palms As if I can cocoon a butterfly back Into its gentle sleep. I am absorbed at it and I cannot disengage. You bring hope and needed refuge to a wandering soul. Cluelessly, your blue warmth caresses, And it opens for me Like an afternoon: My rest from tough day's work. Because of you I can somehow get by With this life. Love, You're my north star, And another, And a few hundreds more. I intend to walk and follow My disregard for my longing heart. But still, at night, you form for me A constellation, a guiding invitation Just to love again. And how I need to lean on you, Like a book leaning to another. But at times, when I can see you reaching out, It is my hand that readily un-fists and steadies, Worried for which its not accountable of. Because of you I can only imagine-- How immense would re-birthing Drowned islands be inside your heart, As I wonder at a far-off shore How to get there, how to know you. 'Cause maybe Just like me, You are finding someone new. © 2010 J.S.P.

Find Me, I Found You
I travel in your fair thoughts As though to travel in your world. Sometimes, I try to understand Why your eyes cannot reach me. Sometimes, I do not know you but-- But still I want to linger Like I truly know you.                   Shyly, I intend to blanket you with my palms As if I can cocoon a butterfly back Into its gentle sleep. I am absorbed at it and I cannot disengage. You bring hope and needed refuge to a wandering soul. Cluelessly, your blue warmth caresses, And it opens for me Like an afternoon: My rest from tough day's work. Because of you I can somehow get by With this life. Love, You're my north star, And another, And a few hundreds more. I intend to walk and follow My disregard for my longing heart. But still, at night, you form for me A constellation, a guiding invitation Just to love again. And how I need to lean on you, Like a book leaning to another. But at times, when I can see you reaching out, It is my hand that readily un-fists and steadies, Worried for which its not accountable of. Because of you I can only imagine-- How immense would re-birthing Drowned islands be inside your heart, As I wonder at a far-off shore How to get there, how to know you.
