Yesterday, we found comfort in eachother's hearts
And grace in eachother's arms as though for eternity
How so soon the clouds gather at winter
As distrust plants its seeds in the womb of our minds
...
Yesterday, I slept off in the arms of love
Just before the voice of the owl will hove,
the flapping wings of birds seeking where to hide
& voices lowered as the lights went dim...
...
In my picture when I sleep at night
Down by the rivers when the moon's at height
When the waters are cool & so thrill
Or the sounds I hear holds my breath still
...
I was too engrossed in my sleep
To notice the sun crawl up over me
Its sweet kiss on my bare skin
lured me into the unfolding today
...
It's saddening to see the roses wither
It's depressing to see its petals turn brown
Leaving a once jazzy world wanness to fill
& the fragrance of its being fade with the breeze
...
Away from Eden's floor where all green arise
Far from the Euphrates, the searing soil baked my root
Sweat from my forehead vanished at the lips of my foot
& I dry as one who pulls arrow at the firey sun
...
Here she is once again
Fresh as if newly sprout
Unyielding to age as ever
Her features, firm as one carved from stone
...
The sun's firey they say
The moon without its own light
Some creatures shy from the brightness of day
& find refuge under the blanket of the night
...
I'd always thought me to be immortal at heart
A being of unyielding emotions
Piercing through the nets of affection with the edge of my will
Standing sure & confident only in I
...
The moon spread a news
Of great love anew
In a country wherein
Strenght dwells therein
...
