Walking on the great wall
Briefly in the past
My heart is trembling softly
I hope this doesn't last
I still recall a spoken name
And how I felt that day
It never will abandon me
Though too often it sounds grey
Memory is brittle
Needs massage along the way
What we think as unimportant
May end up haunting us someday
There is nothing more to offer
Friendships often go that way
I will never forget her
And what she didn't say.
ode to missing
Love Affairs Sep 2014
A single tear.
A single sigh.
A single cry.

I tried to prove my love and not so well,
to give you my love and heart,
but only an illusion came of that.

A single tear.
A single sigh.
A single cry.

Madness is where I dwell,
Darkness is in my heart,
You will never see that.

A single tear.
A single sigh.
A single cry.

Sometimes love is just not enough.
That is all you will ever see, then a smile.

— The End —
