I couldn't carry my weight
it caused me to stumble
couldn't even walk to the nearest gate
the **** of joke of the people-

she looked at me--beautiful Jade
and this she said: sloth is your trouble
yet I love you still--listen to what I've said
'exercise, don't over-eat--don't you dare grumble-

six months will be the test--not a day late
your report-card I'll keep-- quite simple!
it's all up to you- don't blame fate
persevere-- all day--by the double!'

the challenge I took up-- I did great
twenty kilos I shed-- I won the gamble!
we got married-- what a joy to celebrate
in Tuscany- isn't love the most wondrous miracle?

There's a girl
Behind the windows
Waiting for the Moon
So she may smell it
As she is blind

I do this
you do that
not illegal
we are both glad

you do that
I do this
we bother no one
nothing is amiss

you are rich
I am poor
I care not
I don't implore

you are poor
I am rich
come share my meal
your shirt I'll stitch

you and I
we both live
harm we cause not
there's nothing to forgive

I and you
it will come--that final day
there'll be no more you and I
as each quietly walks away

I know it's all our mistake but every punishment has a limit
but this your punishment has crossed all the limits
Every punishment has a purpose and we understood that, is we should not harm the nature
But please now stop it........

From time to time
you can find me
in the depths
of the darkest trench,
in the deepest ocean.

But with your hand in mine,
I'll be breathing oxygen,
and the waters
will be clear
When we are together I know my path

I made a mistake
I meant to be perfect

But I colored outside the lines
On purpose

I crossed the line
That meant to keep the lines inside

Because I'm not supposed to do it

as a kid
there's nothing
like wasting away inside a tiny
room
sitting on the backrest
of the couch
looking out the window
and seeing her
tread through the rain

a red umbrella covers
her.

Mother

she's going back
to the liquor store

Memories --guardians of the past
time does not ravage, they outlast
the perfumes of love and laughter
upon the fond heart nostalgically they linger
