I skim the page
For any sign that
You acknowledged my presence
Atop the rooftop party that day

I skim the page
For the sign that
Everything was marginally magical
Below the ground of our feet that day

I skim the page
For I have seen the sign that
I needed to see.

God gave me a sign, and it’s not a coincidence.
         I ask for it and knew it would come
         It sent shivers to my spines and broke a rib of mine.
But oh God, why sometimes so cruel?
        to take away my heart for someone
        you gave me a sign as an answer, that this person I think I love…
        Is just a shelter of a hopeless heart.
First part

When Dona died
The spring grasses yellowed,
Our cheeks ashen.  Her hair became a little redder
In our minds.  The boy and the man strained

Under the constraints
Of communication.  What was the sign
For "everything will be alright"?  "Fine,"
Yes, you should say, "Fine."  That is better.

Better than just, "okay".

In this season

There is a beauty.
Here- You are the reason
And the "why".

There it is
Again.  The air rushes in
And goes out,

A sigh,

A sign.

I've got the luck.
The luck to find you.
Be with you and become star struck.
You're this mystery of constellations.
Tropical Zodiac of which I attract.
May and June is when you were born.
But who you are inside, you seem so torn.
If I stick around long enough I get to see all the sides to you.
Too many to count. I've stuck around too long.
We always start off great.
Amazing chatter and interest.
Attraction like fire burning late.
The days are getting shorter.
My time more precious.
Its you I want to spend it with.
I just have one question.
Are you a Gemini? Don't answer I know this one.
We've been intense tonight.
You looked into my eyes.
And the world just felt right.
We kissed and passion you were over-run.
We just had *** and I was the best you'd ever done.
We just told each other we were in love. Feelings too intense to keep to our selves.
You suddenly went cold and disappeared. Like a beautiful dream irrecoverable in the morning.
As surreal as you came you left.
You've hurt me more times than I could take.
You've left me feeling like, with my life there's nothing more I can make.
You're a Gemini.

I'm tired of waiting & letting life pass me by like a busy street with a neon road sign
I don't want to waste another day
Because these foolish infantile games are getting harder to play
No more sitting in front of the screen
I'll be working on my goals, if you know what I mean
Life's not a game for the weak or the sad
If you think of it that way, you'll end just as bad
So tonight I make my plans to start anew
(But who knows, by the time morning comes they may have fallen through)

Dark forest of Tao  .  .  .
Black boughs under evergreen,
  .  .  .  Raven wings in wood.

Frogs in distance sing  .  .  .
Foxes, herons, join in too,
  .  .  .  A round of croaking.

Hollow sound through trees,
Naked and bare branches sway,
  .  .  .  Old winter creeping.

The Endless Spring

A single tree, etched with words of love in it's side,
A darkened plume of clouds are still in the fresh air,
Wisps of cottony white, floating in a silent, almost
A blissful unawareness of all worry and despair.

The three of them, so young and happy, laughing,
Trying to smack each other with backpacks, innocent,
Her, so strong and tough, and her friend so free spirited,
And he, effeminate, and not quite sure how to express it yet.

The side walks adjacent of the old school house are lined
With pine cones, evergreen trees, amidst fields of green,
Smoky plumes tower high into the sky, the water of life,
A story of some sorts, of great things in store, a living dream.

A bird calls out, soft rain gently falling on the field of grass,
A rebirth of all nature will take place there, a voice, a sign,
A story of a misfit boy, an endless book, of the greatest
Person to have ever lived in the shortest amount of time.
