You know me,
    I know you.

I've tasted your breath,
you've drunk my soul.

Every now and then,
we drown ourselves
to an ocean of thrills
and sorrows.

You're surrounded by many,
I keep on second-guessing
with whom forever
you are going to stay.

You know me
and the things
I've told you about me.

I know you
and the things
that we always do.

But, how could
I ever tell you
that I don't want
you to go.
I fell in love with a Casanova,
He kept on breaking my heart,
But he's the only one who could mend it
When I was starting to lose my mind.
Your flowers of May
     are not as enticing
     as those of my January.

It knows
    no domain, no!
Invite me to explore every inch of your skin,
I'll be glad to accept the taste of your innocence;
But careful what you do in return,
I tend to make noise silently in sojourn,
And my sense of adventure gets tighter
I'm fictional, so just keep even.

He's
    electricity
       running
          through
             my
                soul.
I didn't want you to know how much I wanted you so I kept writing poems about you, put them in a box, buried it at the backyard near the mango tree where I carved your name. And, I left you a note during my last visit.*

I was rocking my chair there at  the front porch cuddling my kitties like an eighty-year-old lady was supposed to be on a sunny afternoon. Then there's this little boy (who looked so much like you when you used  to be kid with chubby cheeks on a picture in a frame hanged from your living room wall) who never stopped nagging me about those letters in a box he found at the backyard.
Remind me (again) of youth
Share (again) with me freedom
Come, let's play
Or just take me, take me (back)
To where we don't need to talk
About the big, big things
And the future.
