Lei Strauss

Whirling blue pool
I see you there
As sun shines so bright
I see you flare
...

Gives everything I need
I'm her most precious seed
The one who caresses my fears
Life is as bright as my leers
...

THIS IS HOW YOU TREAT A WOMAN

She left you alone without saying any word
This rumor is circulating, it's all in the world
...

Sometimes I wonder
How we made this so far
With all those days
Missing each other's arms
...

It takes a lot of time to master such skill
There are lot of downtimes but I climb on my hill
There are days that my body is strained and about to give up
But I go back to self- determination and rise up
...

Tell the world how I stumble everyday
But you can't say it to me
If you have little problems
Throw words straight in to me
...

Grow little tree and stand tall like sky
Let your leaves grow as they'll learn how to fly
Grow little tree for more generations to come
Help the world realize that life is only one
...

Sleep my child and rest in peace
You will always be loved my ever dear
Everyone cries in one roof where your body
sleeps tight and won't wake up forever
...

Wearing ragged and untidy clothes at night,
There was no make-up but a little dust on our faces,
With improvised instruments made by little hands
We let people felt the spirit of Christmas
...

Facing the crowd where you stand alone
gleaming and making a history of your name.
As people's whispers turn to noise shouting
priceless admiration of your fame.
...

I was robbed in a moment
Everything was lost in a second
Just because you had the authority
Manipulated the things I've never done
...

And the cemetery was filled with muteness
where no voices were heard from the dead.
It's beautiful, sad, deep and tragic.
Thoughts flew with the wind as spirits
...

Christmas carol on Christmas day!
People are singing, joy outrage!
Christmas shopping at big malls
Girls buy party dress at small stall
...

In a crowd where everyone dances the same rhythm
One tries to get along with the new beat
But if trying to fit in is the meaning of acceptance
The world must be in state of hypocrisy
...

Bunch of high school memoirs
Way back when I was young
The frowns on my face
Repeats my yesterday's youth
...

A PERFECT LUST

Tie my hands and lay me on a bed of fire
Unleash ultimate fantasy in your mind
...

I am writing this masterpiece
Addressing this poem to my old friends
It was like yesterday when we just met
Back to those days of innocence
...

I'd like to change for the better of myself
If it has to take a painful surgery
I'll do everything I can
To be fully accepted in a society
...

I'm dreaming of a little girl
running around my house
wiggling her butt as she eats
the fanciest cake I ever made
...

I'd very much like to be excluded
Don't want to be part of your identity
Never see myself growing with you
For you are worse than an enemy
...
