Empty blue man on the desert,
Whom all hearts have rejected
He walks alone bathing with dirt,
Such a life he never expect
No tree can he get shade,
No water from the cascade
No hope for his escape,
In the darkness for decade
If you are part of his worry,
He will find you and say sorry
But when he finds you guilty,
Just accept human frailty
He loves all, all loves him not
He loves not, that loves him much
When he trust you, you disappoint him
He still trust you, you don’t believe him
Sadness in the river, drowned in it a day
Crying all over, how can he repay
Empty blue man on desert,
Cleans all his tears

It seems all is well now, but it wasn't during the time this poem was written. April, 2015
Lonely I am on the sea desert
Abundant food, drink and dessert
But I can’t eat, drink nor rest
Because there’s no shoulder to rest

Beautiful sunshine I see
Soothing wind blow I feel
My companion can’t see
A wonder touch can’t feel

We came in two, thus me and you
Wouldn’t have come without you
To be with mum, dad and Jule
Playing cards, chess and cue

Now that you brought me here
Please don’t leave me alone
The lonely darkly night I’ll fear
Scary sounds of whispering tone

A bird appears to give company
The pirate from sea to give me money
I let them go to leave me lonely
For what I know you are my only

In desert sand my feet drown
Hands are stretched but yours down
On reaching you, you’re far away
I want you back for just today

I am afraid, it’s getting dark
Wind blowing me away to the shark
No food no water, skin start to crack
Watching me dying, your mind is black

I’m running after you
Because we came in two
You can’t leave me blue
For heart to break in two
