Pellets of water scattered in the ground
Bursting like an explosion of memories
We stood amidst the fog of our pasts
Letting the rain cry for all our sorrow

A glimpse of light beyond the skies
Peeking into the darken world
I start to wonder
Do you remember me?

Our past flashed in the nimbus sky
Like a movie late at night
Where were we amidst the great storm?
Washed away like the September rain

The blanket of stars at night
Sparkle each moment you forget me
I start to wonder
Do you see me when you kiss her?

As the birds soar through the sunset sky
We find ourselves dancing under the twilight
Surrendering to fate this unending song
As the light fades to dark

Our palms touch in this sweet surrender
Darkness is our light amidst the forgotten
I start to wonder
Does our love finally start forever?
She
She
Her hand felt like snow
He remembered
When forever used to be
And death had taken it away

She was the tree
That always bloomed flowers
He was the bird
That always took refuge

She had to wither
Like a fragile rose
He wanted to hold on
When she had let go

The sky turned grey
On a summer day
He stood
Feeling the wind

Where oceans end
Where skies meet
Her love exist
In the depths of his heart
My heart is a snowflake in your palm
Beautiful yet fading away
With the trees whispering in my ear
Winter doesn't last forever

My heart is a snowflake in your palm
Sinking into your skin
The coldness a memory of pain
Though soothing like the warm sun

My heart is a snowflake in your palm
Beautiful yet fading away
Evaporated into the wind with a whisper
Winter doesn't last forever
There are souls
Out in the open
Trying to reach
A point of light
Into the rays of the sun
Amidst the heavens
Pulling and pulling
Towards the grounded earth
Where they feel alive
Warmth spread like wings
Of an eagle soaring
To the sky
Yet never reaching the heavens
Trying to grasp
Even a glimpse of infinity
We are wandering souls
Travelling with the wind
Leaving a mark
Called
Love
Do you remember
When we were just stars
Dancing in the sky
Shining bright for the universe
And wonder of its beauty

Yet one day we knew we'd fall
Right through the clouds
Of a planet that nests lovers
Like you and I
Yet so much different

They boast of passion and pain
Hunger for love
Unlike the stillness we have above
Their fire burns us and we yearn
To be like them

And so we did
Become man and woman
Bearing beating hearts
Like fire flicking skyward
Yearning for some depth in height

Yet we never knew
How heartbreak crushes us
An other worldly feeling
That compared death to a friend
Shattered like the asteroids that wandered endlessly

Do you remember
When we were just stars
Falling into earth's grasp
Our lights flickering dim
Replaced with hearts that burned

Burned like the torch of a sun
Rooting deep into veins of passion
We are reborn into a world
Of love and most of pain
Without regret of ever becoming beings of love
The sudden cold of the wind
Flashbacks of bittersweet wounds
Seem to make even the stars cry

The numbness of one heart
Becoming an illness oneself
It hurts more than death

It started to fade
Forgotten and started erasing
And began to reach

Yet the endless sea
Seems to deceive more than the eye
Flooding every memory away

The sudden cold of the wind
Flashbacks of bittersweet wounds
Seem to make even the stars cry
The big star sparkles in the sky
Between night and day
There I found you
Butterflies in your lips

If the sun rose at night
And stars fall down each day
This love you call
Would it be for another?

If the moon woke at day
And clouds sparkled
Will time allow to be still
And let me keep you in heart

Beyond the next star
These lines could cross the same sea
Yet would our hands touch the same palms
And recognize the stars of yesterday

Someday strangers will pass by
This jungle of nothingness
And find you standing still
With arms wide open

Someday strangers will pass by
This sea of emptiness
And find me floating still
With arms wide open

Someday strangers will pass by
This city of the sky
You and I standing still
Just like strangers passing by
The early dawn
Makes pain harder
To steal a second
But always impossible

If love
Like a box of smiles
Hearts would flutter
Pain would change

Yet to smile
They fade to waters
Yet to cry
They fade to scars
To love but fade away


The early dawn
Would not let thieves in
To steal a smile, a laugh
Only memories gone
Inside the pages of our memory
You sat against the hollow tree
Waiting as the leaves fell like pages turned
With every word tucked behind a door
Of a moment we once lost

Your eyes following the journey of the skies
As the birds danced to a song we once knew
I see you like words piercing through my mind
The story that never leaves
Even with the last period drawn

The rain falls like droplets of tears
And the wind sings a song
A sweet melody of the hollow tree
Telling of a story we once held dear
Penned inside the pages of our memory

You sat against the hollow tree
Inside the pages of our memory
And try to listen to the beat of a pumping vessel
Waiting
Just waiting
You are the wind that dances through my heart
With every step I remember
The enchanting sweetness of your smile
Blowing flowers into my world

Your tears break my heart like an abandoned chair
When your memory faded just to see me one last time
When your heart thumped hard and I left it broken
When your unrequited love begged for a second chance in the next life

You are the knight that rides to take me away
You grasp my heart like a child in desire
Without you, the sun seems to be always hidden beneath the skies
And forever was always never enough

You are the wind that dances through my heart
And your love breezes into my very soul
Never fading
Never ceasing
We used to say
That leaves always fall
Into a place
Where the earth
Calls forth a love
A withering emotion
Where you and I
Shed tears to soil
And let it grow
Though forever it can not
Live to love enough
The eyes of the sun arise
Yet every heart is still unopened
The ocean filled with water of lies

My sight gaze upon their smile
So pure, so whole, so heartfelt
Yet their metamorphosis is what hinders them from the light

Rivers of blood shadow the essence
Blade on blade
The sounding cry have reached the heavens

A sleeping lotus in my hand
Raindrops fall begging it to bloom
Yet still its petals hide away around the grandness

My peace I have sowed within the lands
Only waiting is left to withstand the parasites
And maybe one day they will understand

I stand on the temple above
With my hand close to heart
Hoping every creature would again learn to love
The river water turns white
As rain turns to falling stars
In every spark I find you

Every tear turns into bullets
That punched through your heart
Though blown up mine

I see you under every lamp post
Waiting with smiling eyes
Waiting for me

Was the letter written too late?
Was the song sung too late?
Was I too late?

I let the water flow
Til they turn into a river of memories
Ever flowing

The river water turns white
In every falling star
You are there
Two roads in twined
Our hearts divided
The wind that blew away love
Why could it not take away pain?

Emptying the roadside clean
The storm then came crashing in
Broken pieces yet again shattered
There is nothing farther than here

The last leaf of the tree starts to freeze
Winter has made its entrance
Finally standing in front of you
Though frozen walls kept me within

A cold palm against the icy wall
Starts to feel the warmth of your hand
My tears that could not break it open
Tells me you’ve already forgotten

The forgotten memory keeps the ice wall strong
For when my hand moved
Yours kept searching
I stand invisible in your sight

Seasons start to change
Yet it seems winter does not say goodbye
As I watch you walk away
The ice wall starts to break

Silence flooded my every mind
And even if I shouted your name
You would never turn back
For now you walk a different road

Spring has come on the road
I stay chained to the winter mode
Watching the colorful leaves dance
The heart slowly freezes away

Two roads apart
Our hearts separated
The season that took away love
Only left pain to stay forever
Touched by heart
To know
That You're there
Waiting for me

The world is a shadow
That disappears
In a blink of an eye
Compared to what is above

Heart hurts
Each time
You are pierced
All over again

To say sorry
Will never be enough
Yet You still
Forgive

You're waiting
For someone
Like me
Is worthless

Yet You always
Tell me that I am
You'll even be running
Only to hold me

Til Kingdom come
Til I'm also running
Til tears are no more
Til I am home
Travellers winding on a starry road
Where to go, where to go
She eyes the moonshine sparkling
Through each corners of the holes
Of the world where darkness consumed
Every little tear
Every little heartbeat
She looks onto him
With starry eyes that fade to light
Searching for a sunlit sky
Why do the stars lie beneath our feet
He asked
She held his hand into the dark and said
Maybe because we are not meant
To gaze above the stars and dream
But put our dreams in the sky and let it shine
The echoing rain falls
With your shadowy back
In my sight once again
Where I walk towards to
Always in the echoing rain

There the sun hides
Beneath the grim clouds
I find you
Your back like the autumn leaves
A warmth feeling of something lost

If you could only see
What lies beyond these eyes
That wonder all these years
When you'd finally turn and say
I know you too

Because under the echoing rain
In a cold winter past
I stand and wait
For the skies to open
And for you to turn back to me
It started with a prickle of fire
A small light of hope
You and I
What could never be
We proved it through

Four blue moons past
Here we are
Standing as strangers
Hearts falling into pieces
Only to break apart

Forever used to be a word
Where you and I was a whole
Now we're just two puzzle pieces
Trying to fit together
Until we end up in wounds

I still love you
With all my heart
But winds pass and light fades
You took the first step
I was just left behind
We stand under the starry sky asking,
Did we see the stars fade its light
When we gaze upon them in awe?

We lay on the sand staring to the sky asking,
Did we feel the burn of the sun
When we let its warmth comfort us in the morning?

We dived into the cool waters asking,
Did we feel the crash of the waves
When we we let the water envelope us in calm?

We stand alone in each other's world asking,
Did we feel our hearts already breaking
When we fell in love with each other?
You stand under the moonlit sky
Waiting
Waiting

The stars fade
Waiting
Waiting

The dawn broke
Waiting
Waiting

Waiting
Still waiting
Just waiting
We used to be dreamers
Like how the moon chased the sun
And all he got were the glisten lights
Of little stars that tried too hard

We used to be dreamers
Like waves pursuing each chance
To reach the hands of the shores
Yet never seem enough to

We used to be dreamers
That painted the sky red
With the burning passion
That blazed stronger than the sun

We used to be dreamers
Where we could paint with fire
And sing with the wind
Like wandering souls travelling by

We used to be dreamers
That sought the stars in each other's eyes
Where no one can surpass us
But who are we now?
The hand stroke at midnight
Still I lie awake here in the emptiness
Without a single twinkle of a star in the sky
My eyes can only wish for drowsiness

The white ceiling turned into a play of shadows
Little white fireflies start to fly across my sight
What land did they come from? I wished to know
I tried to ask yet one by one they disappeared into the moonlight

Their dancing replayed in my mind
They looked so happy and carefree
And I wondered why I couldn’t savor that joy in life
I’m chained yet no one can see

Every night the white fireflies came
And I’m starting to realize why
For only they can see my chains
Yet can do nothing but just light their fire
Wind that passed
You left
No reason
No goodbyes

Time that passed
Tears undried
Heart that
Always broke

Moments that passed
You came
A new heart
You held

Wind that passed
Tears undried
You came
I left
I turned back
Your face faded
Into the sunlight

I could only see
Your sweet smile
And tears fall

This happiness
Will it last
I asked

Though in my heart
I keep begging
For it to last

Through all the pain
Through all the tears
I can still say...

I love you.
