Eleanor ...

I am a soldier.
Just a soldier, and don’t ask me
What’s the sense
In living.
...

I hope you'll never know
How much I need you;
I hope you'll never know
How much I care.
...

A dropp of water
Shattered the surface
Of depths where darkness
Paints with its crayons
...

Sparkling dust
Of the deepest darkness
Covers my forehead
As I plunge
...

Of dying bird cherry
the scent
was so familiar.
I never could forget
...

I’ll give you one lifetime
Though it’s not enough –
I’d give you some more if I could.
...

For quite a time
This world has been
an empty place
To me.
...

I spent the night
dancing with devils.
I gave it. They took it away.
...

My mind and your mind –
What a miracle
So close and yet so many
Worlds apart.
...

Awaken me
And nothing in the world
Will stop the dream come true
...

There can be days
that leave you
lying on the strand
a piece of wood
...

No sense but nonsense makes my days,
A sense I persuade myself to be a sense
Each morning, hour, every step I take
Except when I forget of making senses.
...
