By the end of winter
hind the canopy of leaves
they build a chaotic nest.

She sits meditative
he stands watchful
and once only my eyes could intrude
four bluish white nuggets.

When in the first winds of summer
dance the mango buds
small wings would ache
not to fly beyond mother's love.

But she knows no time to waste
so they too on the next winter
gather twigs for a nest.

Finally the time has come.
Laying in my bed again
I’m ready to see you
and say goodbye to this pain.

I can see you and kiss you.
I am finally by your side.
I don’t want you to leave
I wish you would stay for a while.

The sad thing is
no matter how good it feels
deep down in my soul
I know soon you’ll be gone.

I know you’ll leave me aside
the moment I open my eyes.
For I know, this is just a dream
And in vain “I love you” I scream

And it wouldn’t be clever
but I would however,
If I can’t have you,
dream you forever.

And maybe I will one day
When I say goodbye to this world
When I go.
Maybe ill dream of you still

when I’m dead.

I was shore
that could not
leave the sea alone

The waves floating
my way while
I think of how it
flows and the way
my loose sand goes

The sea waves towards
the shore for the
calm in her:

He waves
onto my shore
-incessantly- calming her

Let me kiss your scars.
I'm here for you now.
I will act as a bandage to your wounds.
Let me take away your pain.
Put down the razor my love.
Give it to me so I can toss it out the window.
Let my love overwhelm you.
Enlace my fingers where you would normally put that razor blade.
Focus on my eyes and my kiss instead.
Allow me to heal your pain.
Don't push me away.
I won't give up on you, I won't run.
I'm here now.
Everything is going to be OK my love

i watched you take your cigarette

inhale deeply one last time then pitch

it off into the cool night breeze

creating ashen galaxies
