in childhood ages -
love is "ewww"
and cooties

in older ages -
still young
love is a secret
and cannot be sung

and now this
what does love mean now?
someone to care
someone to hug
someone to bear with
through the seasons?

it's so hard to understand

it was about 3
in the afternoon
when the wind was calm
and an airy gloom

she had smiled at him,
her,
holding books in one hand
pack in another

she looked like
perfection to him...

some fear the darkness
others fear to be alone
many fear to lose the kisses
of a loved one

and some fear to speak
some fear their regrets
few fear to be weak
but when we've dried
anxiety and lies
you can see the rainbow is here,

so don't worry for now
because sun is coming out

somebody died
and so we grieve
somebody cried
and so we comfort them
somebody lied
and so we are angry
somebody suicide
and so we say
"they were too young, too young to die"

and so the world goes on

the little girl
sat at the window
last night
and in her sight
was an angel
a little girl did not know
that this angel
was her

did I ever settle into your mind
of a girl who smiles
of a girl who dresses cutely
of a girl who is kind
a girl who is blindly
in love with you?

or was I only a fragment
but your head is settled in
on another?

or just an acquaintance.
whatever I am

just tell me that I have
settled in your mind.

a wave
it crashes down on me
as I sway
into your arms

a wave
had me drenched
in my unquenched
crave for you

my loveliness
let this wave press
gently onto us
