Once We Are Gone.!
Nothing is left behind in dying,
Save the things one can do without-
The best of the World is made better
And it is possible to arrive somewhere...
Bonds of love are never severed
But realized forever in the parting,
It, alone, travels
With the weary passenger
Over the sound of air
And across the whispers...

Time Will Tell
As time passes by,
I am fully aware
Of what I am missing
And I am imaging
That you are perfectly conscious
Of what you have lost...
Now I must let you know
That there is not crime
Without any punishment on Earth
And for trespassing my heart,
The worse punishment you can get
Is to live the rest of your life
Without me.
Only time will tell.

As Simply As Death
As simply as death itself
Each time I die...you sigh
And all my veins
Tremble in its breeze...
You have gone
Leaving an image
More beautiful
Than imagination itself....
I hear you from afar
I feel the soft whirling
Of your body
In the short winds
Between the dusty hills...
I was once there....
And still thinking about you...

She Comes Still Around
She comes still around
Every now and then...
Neither old or young
Never to be tired...
She is not like herself
But I can recognize her....
When she beckons me
One step closer....
However, I can still smell
The scent of her body
And envision the magic
Of her beauty....
Just memories remain
Of great moments
We once shared...

A New Me
Things not always turn out to be
What you would love to see
However, reality you must face
It is like being here
And at same time, lost in space...
One must welcome destiny without fear...
Never losing touch of reality
Turning down the world of fantasy...
Living a life upright with a big smile,
As a real person with class and style...

A Fact Of Life
I need to find a secret place,
Entirely drawn by closed space
And disinherit my presence
In this world until I have been convinced...
My truant spirit to return
To the daily education
Required of a mortal
To learn and overcome with completion...
What can I say,
What can I do?
That is life,
Manifested in a different way...!

Wondering Again
When all the earth is still
I am a spectator
Like remembrance
Outside the sport of life
Watching, watching time passing
Like horses on a track....
I wonder should I have bet
My assets on some other race?
When my number falls behind
It is hard to be seated-and sure-
As chance gallops by all crazed
Without even heeding my name...

Man From The Shadow
He has two hearts
Three kidneys
And three tails
The sole of my foot sticks
And I try to free it...
It becomes a feather with eyes...
Two eyes of a gazelle
He sleeps on a long-handled broom
And suddenly begins to dance
With a thousand of his wraiths
He puts me to sleep
And all this because he just
Want to invade my dream
When I am dreaming of her...

You Have The Answer..
If you are sincere
Ask for me
And I will come
And stay beside you
Forever...
I need to know
That you want my love now
Tonight!
As I do yours...
I cannot resolve
Reticence
Without your word
Because it is too
A great risk...
To offer oneself
Without hope
Of an answer....

Answer Me, Love
Answer
I see the light approaching
The earth is rumbling
And the wind is too strong...
I know
Your momentum is great
My question left no traction
For equivocation...
Be swift
If you must blow me away
Remove me completely
From the ground's attachment...
But, if your breath is sweet
Kiss me a thousand times
And I will raise a flag to honor
The breeze...
