little dark girl with
kind eyes
when it comes time to
use the knife
I won't flinch and
i won't blame
you,
as I drive along the shore alone
as the palms wave,
the ugly heavy palms,
as the living does not arrive
as the dead do not leave,
i won't blame you,
instead
i will remember the kisses
our lips raw with love
and how you gave me
everything you had
and how I
offered you what was left of
me,
and I will remember your small room
the feel of you
the light in the window
your records
your books
our morning coffee
our noons our nights
our bodies spilled together
sleeping
the tiny flowing currents
immediate and forever
your leg my leg
your arm my arm
your smile and the warmth
of you
who made me laugh
again.
little dark girl with kind eyes
you have no
knife. the knife is
mine and i won't use it
yet.

Like a golden sun as riches,
They are gold and silver,
Without shining bright as diamond,
These goldness of the sun is the key,
For brightness of gold and silver.

Feeling the sun is so hot and gold,
Like a star in the blue sky,
Without so many stars,
As if it is the pure star in universe.

How could the sun be so brightful?
When there is more light outside,
With us to see more sunlight in
Our eyes.

Had to run away
for awhile and hide
emotions were spent
mentally I was fried
life was beating me up
couldn't take it no more
grabbed a bunch of stuff
and ran for the door
jumped in the car
hit the open road
all these thoughts in my head
I think I'm going to explode
window rolled down
wind blowing through my hair
have no idea where I'm going
I don't even care
the freedom I feel
every mile that I drive
refreshing my soul
making me feel so alive
thinking about what's important
and what I hold dear
its always been you
and our love that we share
you are my oasis
in the desert of life
so glad you're my friend
and my beautiful wife
