You say I do not love you
when heaven knows I've lied
every moment wanting you
there is nothing more to hide.

As shades of twilight fall
your love, subtle has entranced me
I hear your voice call
drifting in a soliloquy.

My heart is held captive, pleading
weaving sweet tapestry
by emerald foam seas
your footprints shatters me.

Beauty of ivory shades
spare love of this change
for streams of sliver lines
search for sable eyes.

I convey my thoughts  
on sheets of gold paper
in ballads, ever mystic stanzas
the heart of a stranger.

You are a white lotus
delicate, adrift cool streams
among the raining moonlight
your hair falls gently.

Don't hide this night                                                            ­                             red rose skies
blend crafts of symphony
across sun drip nights.

I cannot find peace
strokes come in waves of dreams
Asian, still this distant queen
I truly need.

I adore your worth
ever anticipating love
as the pearl in the sea
I look to find the two of us.
