Perhaps

Just when I stand tall
chasing the northern light beyond the horizon,
the sun rises miraculously erasing the colours
and my naive soul turns miserable again.

It’s not just another coincidence,
it’s the cruel rhythm of my life
I always tried my best to catch the firefly
yet some cosmic interference always brings out the sunshine.

But I will never give up,
untill that light over the ridge strikes my eyes
I will touch the tip of the jewels
whether it happens today, tomorrow or someday later.

Life is meant to be full of sufferings
sometimes its even worse
Maybe I won’t be the chosen victim
perhaps fate will spare me next time,
Who knows?

Midnight echoes

It’s another day 
another frame without you by my side
Yet I yearn to write a whole decade 
about smooching you all around.

Maybe I will fade into dreams
while your shadow touches my mind
All I want is to feel your presence 
stirring my heart before the morning chimes.

Let’s add wings to our tale
you can sing I will orchestrate 
the verse will be about our distant journey
In melody, comes the tango we always anticipated.

With all our desires unfold
blooming sorrows will find their place
Now it’s my turn to surprise you
until your harmony prevails.

Between the Silence

Once upon a time I used to be happy
I used to be sad
I used to have feelings
I used to suffocate.

But now its all gone
nothing new or old to rely on.
A numb, sore entity
to pass these days and nights along.

What am I supposed to write?
What am i supposed to tell?
A quiet sombre story
instead of a doomed novel?

Or a cruel pathetic tour
about what the reality is, what’s on hold.
What’s next to burn out
the tired little soul?

Is this the outburst or even if there’s more?
What’s the point behind all of this
if its already been told?

Void whispers

How many more days to wait?
When will it be our evening?
Failed to find you one more time
even after the revolt was fulfilled.

Maybe this is the last time
twilight of a gray saga.
My soul forbids my heart to wait
yet for you, I may never give up.

Our shadows have never met
not even for a while, never had that luck.
Can we walk beneath the city lights,
keeping our souls aligned?

I will pay for the mistakes
for a few more days or beyond time.
How many more days to wait,
until I lose you forever?

Incoherence

Shut up!
Quiet sleeper awaken with mystery swirling around the head.
Asks with amorous voice
“What lies below a quiet place?”

In the shadow realm
loneliness breaches origin of love

In the silence of the wind
yearns drizzles for extended hours

In the hustle and bustle of prostitutes
humble wanderer peeps up

In the rainy night
your absence makes me go numb

Get back to the sleeping world
muse about what to seek next.
For “affection of melancholy”
lies beneath the quiet place.

Let Love Along

Stand by me
with your ever loving charm
Have faith in me
we will never fall apart

I want you with all my heart and soul
Come let’s get love and never be alone.

I need someone to love  
someone to feel me
Some strong desires  
surrounding my sweet dreams

Come close dear knocking my window of being
Let’s crack the aisle of love with a peck on the lips.

A blue night parley

Pain makes you stronger
pain shows you reality
Success will come
if you can sustain this malady.

Conquer the positiveness
with passion and devotion
No one can harm you
with all your satisfaction.

Keep pushing your strength
restrain yourself from all the fable desires
Calm down your distressful mind
and make your illusions retire.

Respect the pain you gained
command yourself in the right track
You will deal a good time
like you cherished from the outset.

Reminiscing

I will always remember you like sands flow in an hourglass
like a chilling sun shines after the morning rain dries up.

I will keep our memories in my crowded blue dreams
if we never meet again I promise they will never sink.

I will remember your footsteps in the noise of every silent night
tales of your shadow will not be over my mind.

I will always remember your laughter in the gust of whimsical air
a small attempt to hide your thoughts in my lonely desires.

But if there is nothing more to cherish
nothing left to adorn you full
I will keep you in a corner of my heart
someday I will touch the blue moon.

Trace

One step closer one leap apart
with a bit of surprise
don’t know what’s outside

One step further some time elapsed
it may sound crazy
but life is a roulette.

A step towards big crunch
with a chunk of light
everything is relative
you, me and her.

Can’t miss a step
don’t know what’s gonna happen next
time is the real twist
you may live thousand steps.
