Why Bother

20121224-015725.jpg

Why bother
Or even try
When they are blind to see anyways
Heart hanging from a tree limb
Swaying no matter the forecast
Sunny or downcast
Ignoring the past
Just maybe I’m wrong this time
Got the head side of the dime
Why bother
Not even part of the
Important things to do list
Why say words that sting
Just so YOU can do the right thing
Why not treat this butterfly

Ever changing with a delicate touch
Be kind and caring it won’t matter much

Why bother
Just this time
That heart will sway into
Someone’s embrace
Why even try
When the smile
Left with no trace

Whispers

The wind of love encircles
Only to disperse
Leaving just whispers
Tear drops glisten
At my existence
Whispers of profound words
With no substance
For the emotion is greater
Than any words
Drowning in the mist
Of fragmented particles
Left behind
Clouding my mind
Breathing whispers of love
So I can go on
Capturing the wind in
A bottle of hope
I stand on cliffs of suspense
Waiting with arms spread out
Whispers scream the love within
Encircle me with his name

Friendship

Written for Ariela, some friendship just make you better…

To relish in sweet vanilla scent of your kindness,
wish that the distance would be just a blink of an eye
when look forward to your inspiring words
that touch my heart like thirst for water in a long day
in the sun
…Your friendship is like time indefinite

From here till forever….

Sleep my Friend, Sleep

Sleep my Friend, Sleep
I will sit here and will wait till you rise again
This world has been hard on you
You must rest
I will sit here and wait
like a whisper from a faraway wind
Your name will be called and
You will rise again
Like dusk in the morning and the sun slowly
rises you will rise again
I will wait like the night waits for the moon
Like the day waits for the sun
This is guaranteed
You will rise again
Sleep my Friend, Sleep

No Sound

Heidelberg Castle

Heidelberg Castle

No sound
Tried to hear that heartbeat
am I deaf
or just drowning
I can feel it in my chest
pounds so harsh
just a soundless echo
the sound is muffled
to protect my mind
so I don’t go blind

Nice to meet you
Nice to have known you

How can a heart contain
so much
yet not burst
to ashes and dust
No sound
Want to hear the laughter
the joy
the hope
I know it’s only there
when you have that person to share
We know there is different kinds of love
I want that  love only share with one

I bend my hear but its to far
no reason to waste the energy
I will wait for the new dawn
for my hearing to be cleared
and my eyes to be set straight
so that pounding ache
with no sound
Can be set free
Hope there isn’t anything in the way
for once letting go the sound wave
will make its way across the land
No sound
just my music in the background…

Morning Night Lullaby

20121210-224442.jpg

May your sleep come to you as
Soft as the whisper of a gentle breeze
on your cheek, may your mind wander in peace, slowly drift and close your eyes till the morning when sleeps slumber wakes you in internal light of joy, May your sleep knock on your door
Let it enter as you close your eyes
to the night’s stars say goodnight to
you, till mornings dew….

Elusive Love

A dream
a distant star with no name
the impossible
Love you are elusive to me
Hard to capture
Like a spark in the rain
Some have found you
But my impossible dream
So I wait
From sunrise to sunset
Are you the impossible
Worth waiting for
and I wait
Will you be found
Elusive love
Petal-less beautiful rose
For each love is like no other
Each sunset and sunrise
To be in love, I wonder
Is it the same to be loved
Shall I wait for you instead
At my train stop,
Ready to hitch a ride
Is it me that is evading capture
Time will tell till tomorrows sunrise
And I wait
Checking the schedule for
change in time
One second
At least I will have a glance
Elusive it’s come to be…

Night Sail to Paris Part 2

20121210-005426.jpg

Reflection of a river’s edge
from here to there
from there to here
Bonjour Bonsoir
Que Vida
Through a lock water rises, water lowers
Manmade tide to ease nature’s force
Sing for me a duo
Hands on piano keys
Gliding through the water
May as well flown through the sky
Even better, sweet nothing
Que Vida
Bonsoir Bonjour
Life is what you choose to make it
Regardless of what is thrown to you
Music that plays, an unending melody
The sound is blocked and the
Heart refuses to listen
“Beija-me Beija-me muito”
If only that was true for me..
As water flows so do I, how can it be
That I flow through this life
Water changing with every ripple
So sweet you say not an easy task
“Beija-me Beija-me muito”
I hear them singing
One day he will and I will be flowing
River Seine, Enchante

Balance

20121210-012042.jpg

Walked and fallen in forward movement, the greatest challenge now is to stand still, in this tightrope of love, to balance the uncertainty with that which is clear. The wind unseen lifts our wings when the time comes not to stand still and fly…
