its like watching a star
never falling
but stuck in one place
eventually the watcher
moves on
to the next star
a star that
actually falls

should he love you,
he will not leave.
like the spring breeze,
intertwining with leaves in trees,
your hearts are wound.

should she love you,
she will not leave.
as sure as the waves crash to shore,
as the moonlight reflects the water's ocher,
she will be there for sure.

lovers together are stronger
than the gust that separates
        the leaves from trees,
than the waves that crashes
        on the sands of time,
even though promises lie broken
their hearts still awaken
when their other halves are near

Exhausting are the questions
That just cannot be known
The ceiling of thinking
Is far below the soul

Yet wash it all over me
The legends and the myths
The folklore of my ancestors
The euphoric magical gifts

The goddesses
Who restore balance
The gods
Who direct our flights
My atheist heart can't dismisse
Such possibilities
At the end of life...
Deadlines fast approaching,
Fingers typing,
Keyboard smoking.

Brain is a jumbled mess,
Getting stressed,
Can't perform my best.
AARRGGHH.
Wake up, yesterday was disappointing
Didn't get **** done
Now gotta jam hard and get lucky
Or it'll all fall apart
Falling
Fell
Just get ****** so you don't mind ******* it all up
****
What am I doing again?
Precious things for which we do care
are not materials, but feelings intangible
so having them makes it even more rare
as it slips from your hands unnoticeable.

The beauty of the cloud is not in its height
the melody of a song cannot be felt with open eyes
we can make buildings with all our might
but it always falls short of the heavenly blue sky.

Love is not defined by a red box having a gold ring
but by the stall of time at the moment so divine
her splendid smile like a swan spreading its wing
her sparkling eyes telling the diamond to shine
Should i tell
Maybe just a peep
No what will they think
My life is now on lockdown
Only one grain of sand is ready for my words
The other grains are not ready
Its time to tell
Suddenly a puddle
Then a light squeeze
Its fine i think
Some can comfort other can not
