The setting sun inspires me
to settle all my affairs of the day
to let all stresses fade away
into the deep velvet purple sky
and allowing all the daily problems
to disappear silently into the horizon

That moment -
when first proclaiming your love:
taking the leap, both legs first;
Into the raving rapids.

Hoping;
that she finds faith in you,
and that she is as willing - as you.
That she leaps in with you.

Hoping,
to endure the curvy rapids.
To find each other's strength,
grasping each other, never letting go.

Hoping -
that the river shows mercy.
Bringing you both, hand in hand,
all the the way to calmer shores

Hoping;
there, at the end of the river -
to find peaceful, beautiful waters.
A happy life, together - forever

That moment, leaping.
Full of hope. But, in retrospect,
did you not already know?
If done right,

is not love

to know?
Oh why,
must our memories be a
reconstruction of the past and not
reality to show me that the past, in reality
was not as good as I reconstruct it to be.

dark and sifting strands
crisscross the path they follow
tussled to a grin
You wonder all day what you are doing with your life
You have no job, no money, but time
Time, you were wondering what you are doing with your life

Early morning, you think of doing some stuff today
But your daily errands took all your leisures away
And when dusk knock on your door at its time
Time, you were wondering what you are doing with your life

So you went out, just to cool off your head
End up taking a **** or two with some of your friend
Then you come back home on your time
Time, you were wondering what you are doing with your life
