A crossroad meets my gaze
I look inside the night
an envelope was thrust
into the ocean of one hurt,
inside the pain
there is a light,
another road to take,
which one
can make love look back
and forgive
melt all regrets,
a dance,
moon rays meet sun escaping hail,
sunshine greets all who pass
under this rain.
***
I wanted to believe,
I doubted,
and I lost,
the bridge that was so near,
stays hidden in a fog,
am I so far from my own path,
can flowers still see me,
feel fragrance coming,
leaving again,
have I become a shadow
that they don't know my face,
my touch,
are they afraid to graze
my fingers?
***
What can I hold
when darkness comes,
what will not flee my touch,
if flowers die
and garden goes,
am I still whole
inside this night
of hearts?
***
Belonging in the sea
underworld and desire,
not far enough,
not deep,
not all wails meet their doom,
not all revenge
is set
to sleep.
***
In wonder,
there's dark light,
discover what lies at your door
is it your own glee and the fright
you long to see in eyes
in soul,
for pain, you have endured,
for all those tears shed
and gone in dust,
for everyone who left,
never came back?
***
Taking soul candle in the night
won't set you free once more,
lifting another spirit glows
it leads you back
to me.
***
If kind words
love you back
you will smile one more time,
this life is meant
for happy tears
and moonflowers.
