Sunrise fleeting by.
Cherry blossoms falling by.
like stars in clear sky's.

My animal has to much pride. Its hard to keep him inside. I have to stick to the code. Travel with him on the road. Need to keep my lion away.
He may consume me anyway. He is fire. His roaring is burning all choice away.
only one path to follow this day.
Pride or honor? What feeds you?

I* am a soldier
I defend my Honour
I defend my owner?
I am a soldier
I am a holder
Of what am I the holder?
Of justice, of peace?
Or of a diplomatic *greed
?
I am a soldier
I will get older
But in my head,
The war is never over**.
To soldiers. Soldiers of every country, of every post, on every side.
Not everyone is blind to the service, to the sacrifice. Thank you.

Dugong kumukulo
Luhang tumutulo
Katawang nabalot sa pagod
Isipang nasakop ng lito
Pero
Ang ating mga puso ay patuloy
Na lumulusong
Sumusulong
Sa gitna ng nagbabagang apoy.

Pinapatatag ng pag-ibig
Pinapatakbo ng dangal.

Wagas at lubusan
Ang ating alay
Para sa ating tungkulin at pangalan
Para sa layuning pagbabago sa lipunan
Para sa masa
Para sa isa’t-isa.

Maraming salamat,
Sanghaya.

He scrambles to the next lover,
to soothe his own pain,
to scramble up their life,
to match his chaos brewing like coffee.
To rob them of reality,
of up from down,
rob them from someone who would consume their whole being,
not spitting out one seed,
who would be concious of just whom they are loving.
For in truth, when he said he loved me,
when he pressed his nose to mine,
when our auras conjoined...
what he really meant was,
I love not being lonely.
For love does not just throw up the white dish towel and die.
We do not mean to scramble up what we want and what we need inside,
it just happens from time to time.
Afterall, I'm the indulgent one who bit,
the half soul, half ego ***** who asked for cheese on top.
Protesting as a vegan means nothing in truth,
when I've just as soon devoured what's offered up too soon.
My system was not ready for eggs,
for dairy,
I threw it all up.
Then when my system was realized and ready,
I wondered why his breakfast plate couldn't magically be resurrected,
hot off the stove of "love".
When I threw it all up,
he took offense, rightfully.
He broke the plate on which he served me.
From the diner, he banished me.
He said, I thought you were ready!
At the sight of what looks like insufficient culinary ability,
I cannot have you here, this liability,
I am sorry.

Today, a breeze rides thru
the window across her bed,
reaching me on the other side.
My clean bare feet resting near.

The sanctuary,
sheets so Soft
comforters comforting.
Flowers fragrant,
her colors, fresh each day.

Her body has taken shape,
like the center of a spiral shell.
A soft curled position.
Hands tucked. Delicate cheeks
resting upon them.

Two years now wondering
will her life return.
The pain pushes through her
too much to bear.
She awaits for the inevitable.
The deliverance.

I am watching over.
One of her people
this time in her life.
There are the others,
tending the difficult task
of daily living.
The dearest ones.
Facing the inevitable
hurt of losing her.

I am one of the blessed ones.
Chosen to care and
weave my love,
into the tenuous, quiet oasis
that has become her life.

Understanding,
wisdom and grace, envelop us.
A delicate tenderness abounds,
these precious moments of our day.

Most cherished, Princess Deokhye,

I need to confess something to you. Ever since I met you in my dreams, I can only think of your radiant, black eyes. You filled my heart with unexpected joy and my head with amazing dreams of us together. My love can only grow more and more each day.
I dream of us laughing and from time to time I would gently stroke your black hair while you keep smiling. In moments like these my life would simply be complete.
When I’m alone in the quiet, it always feels like I can hear your voice, whispering to me.  Just like the blessed music of a Haegeum. I wanted to tell you this from a long time ago, you are as essential to me as is my warm coat on a winter's day.
My Beloved My Princess, please be sure I mean everything this love letter carries to you with all my heart. Once I saw your lovely eyes I knew there won’t be anything more precious to me in this whole world. I want to take you away from the past, away from any upset or misfortune, and we shall go together to the future Korea, where miracles happen every day.
You are the best my beloved princess.. You are my sunny day in spring.   I'd sacrifice everything in the world to know that you will be right here beside me for the rest of our lives.
My heart skips a beat at the thought that soon I will bring you a white rose of Sharon to show you once more how dedicated I am to you, for all eternity.

May love guard you,

Poet Ron

Princess Deokhye of Korea (25 May 1912 – 21 April 1989) was the last princess of Korea.
She was born on 25 May 1912 at Changdeok Palace in Seoul. She was the youngest daughter of Emperor Gwangmu and his concubine, Lady Bongnyeong.[1] In 1917, her name was formally entered into the Imperial Family's registry. Her father, Emperor Gwangmu, loved her greatly, and established the Deoksu Palace Kindergarten for her in Jeukjodang, Hamnyeong hall. Girls her age from noble families attended the kindergarten. In 1919, she was secretly engaged to Kim Jang-han, a nephew of Kim Hwangjin (a court chamberlain).
