Equation

2006-01-23T22:42:00.000Z

My heart is an equation
for when you are close
it beats harder! Stronger!
when you are far,
it is weak.

My heart is an equation
when you are in my arms
my heart has a rapid beat
when you are far,
it slows.

my heart is an equation
without you here
a minute is a year
and a metre a mile
and statuesque
stands my heart.

Time

2006-01-23T22:21:00.000Z

It took me
the beauty of your eyes
to love you
an empty bed
to miss you
and many lifetimes
to forget you.

water

2005-09-19T13:08:00.000Z

I am water
and you love
that carries me.
I am the clouds
I am the sea
I am the rain
you are my
nature
And I give you
life
like you give me
meaning

Gift

2005-09-03T16:45:00.000Z

Gift

each gift
given to me
of a kiss
of a smile
raises me up
like a wave
to the peak
of the clouds
and there I stay
as the wave
crashes away
and paradise touches
my lips
again
and again

none

2005-01-01T23:37:00.000Z

I am the ocean
You, my rising sun
chasing the dark
though the day
with your light
keeps me warm
day and night
and, as we converge
sea and sun merge
forming tears of hapiness
and the cycle of life

Folded up flower,
soon to show your mane
with the sonorous sun
and to waltz with the wind
from ashes and dust you rose
from the germ of an idea
The bee's Pheonix
worth a billion tears.

untitled

2004-10-10T16:36:00.000Z

my love for you so is so great
that my soul floats among the clouds
in search for you
using the stars to navigate
like the sailors of old
searching for one special star
that diamond in the sky
you

empire

2004-10-10T16:32:00.000Z

Your eyes burn a big furnace
that ignite the flame of patriotism
in a nation that is my mind
I surrender my empire to you
for you are the fuel of my heart
the oxygen of the fire
you are my queen,
my monarch
I worship your every word
and your every action
without you i am ash
and the empire is no more.

Kiss

2004-08-29T01:43:00.000Z

the bee needs the flower
and the flower needs the bee
they admire each other,
the bee and the flower
attracting each other
the bee kisses the flower
and they share life,
with each moment kissed
the flower wrapped towards the bee
and the bee intimate with the flower
kissing, like the perfect partners
they are

2004-08-15T00:55:00.000Z

I do not sleep quietly
My soul hunts for you
like the drunk
searching for the last sup
at the end of his glass
he sleeps
in search of peace
like i do for you

I see

2004-08-10T21:34:00.000Z

when I see
the letters you
send to me
I forget the paper
I forget the pen
and I dance with the words

when I see
your eyes
looking at me
I forget the sky
I forget the earth
and I dance with your soul

My words fail you
for when i say you are beautiful
I mean to say a whole lot more
for you deserve a whole new language
for when i look at you
rome is built in a day
and the gods found new words
of love in their forgery
for these are the words
I would give to you

Untitled

the wall fell
and we kissed
this felt like
reaching
the life giving oasis
at the end of the desert

I flip another coin
Into the well
wishing you were here
too long i have done this
day after day
week after week
month after month
sad time spent alone
each day a lonely heart
throwing another coin
into the deep black well
listening, watching it fall
never hitting the bottom
like these days never end

spring

2004-06-27T00:27:00.000Z

Spring

when our hearts first spoke
The sleepy sun it awoke
which pulled back the grey curtains
causing tears from the mountains
which made the trees grow to the sky
this made the weeping willows cry
this made the rabbits bound
the birds sing beautiful sound
young deer come to play
That chase the grey days away
all this growth, love and life
when our hearts first spoke

Walking with windows

2004-06-26T23:59:00.000Z

Her reflection, gazes at her,
in tribute to her admiration
she wants, but she cannot have
tempted, by that on display
longing to have, like the apple
her face floats, over glass ice
Ghosting from view to view
on a grey sunday afternoon
Walking with windows

Flower

2004-06-13T00:38:00.000Z

I am the flower
Your smile is the wind
Your love is the earth
Your soul is the light
I am the flower - without
Earth, wind and light
I am nothing

My love, a request

2004-06-06T10:27:00.001Z

I dream of you and me
under the cherry trees
in full spring glory
can you take me there?
And love me there?
to live in your eyes
and sleep in your heart
trees blossoming us
in their crowing glory
to be with you forever
like the oyster with the pearl

Untitled

If I were, born a bird
of my love, I would sing
of my hopes, I would dream
of life, i would give for you.
Of search for you, i would go
to fly over river and vale
to glide over mountain and rock
to hover over desert and sand
to sail against tempest and tide
to sing of my love to you

Pain

2004-05-30T19:53:00.000Z

Pain

why do I exist, on my own
it hurts like a fragmented bone
The worst black nightmare I scream blue
Without your touch I feel untrue

I need your touch, for this I dream
I need your soul, to hold you near.
with you near, my soul will beam
without you here, my soul does tear

I know you are the one for me
to be with you, will set me free
life is not life, without you here
and to lose you, my greatest fear.

Gold

2004-05-26T23:03:00.000Z

When i love you
And you love me
You make my heart turn to gold
You make my time with you golden
Our love is a gold crown
And when I am with you
Time stops

Desire

2004-05-26T21:35:00.000Z

From the rising of the sun
To the rising of the moon
I wish i was with you
From the dreams of my sleep
To the thoughts of my days
always are of you

My dream woman

2004-05-26T21:29:00.000Z

I dream of the day of glorious you
Like a goddess, my dreams worship
Such beauty, men lose their breath
your green eyes makes me frozen
your brown hair, like flowing silk
such soft words, they float and stun
your ambient air of love entraps me
intoxication, liberation, purification
my soul is free, my heart complete
to be complete with you, a dream

Dedication

2004-05-26T21:22:00.000Z

Each breath i take
Is a breath for you
Each thought i make
Is a thought for you
every pain and ache
is from missing you
Every dream i take
Is a dream of you
every move i make
is a move for you
every time i love
it is love for you

Storm

2004-05-26T21:14:00.000Z

water washes with water
like my soul with yours
mixing, into a glorious sea
filled by rivers of feelings
and tears of joy
stirring a passionate storm
that gives the sea a heartbeat
as the waves slide together
into a brilliant calm

Whispers

2004-05-26T21:12:00.000Z

I told the river i loved you
the river rippled to the sea
the sea whispered to sky
and the sky wept tears of joy

The stone I would give to you

2004-05-26T21:09:00.000Z

If my love for you was a stone
It is the strongest stone
It is the richest stone
It is the most beautiful stone
It is not a ruby
It is not even a diamond
But a stone of pure love
for that is what you deserve
It is unseeable by man
It is uncreatable by the gods
And I give this stone to you
as part of my love

my flower

2004-05-26T21:07:00.000Z

walking in the fields of bliss
in the plains of tranquilty
I noticed your flower
the scent of your love
that made me grow roots
that mixed with your roots
stalks growing together
stalks wrapping round
and bonding forever

When I love

2004-05-26T21:01:00.000Z

When I look at you
My breath turns to perfume
My soul springs from the desert
Roses spring from the heart

When I love you
The deserts have rain
Flowers bloom, birds sing
I was in pain before

When I touch you
Sand turns to silk
souls merge together
and together
we sink into
The sea of silk

Force

2004-05-26T21:00:00.000Z

Force

If my love for you
could be converted,
into another force
it would turn the tide
and stop the yangtze

wine

2004-05-26T20:58:00.000Z

How I desire my sweet red wine
And how you make me feel
The wine tasted from your lips
to touch and feel your neck
to feel your full body
to merge as one
drunk from your presence
happy from our harmony
How I desire my sweet red wine

untitiled

2004-05-26T09:16:00.000Z

I sit and cry, your soul is missing
Nothing to touch, nothing to feel
You are so far away, like gold
from the rainbow, from eldorado
shadows before me
Glimpses behind me
I hold my head in dispair
sad that you, are not here
like a frame with no picture
I hang my sorry head
wishing for your touch
like the pollen needs the
wind

want

2004-05-25T00:33:00.000Z

Want

I need to feel your love
Like the wind feels the trees
to feel your warmth
like leaves feel the sun
to feel your soul
like the ghosts of ancient lovers
to feel your loving touch
Like the sea strokes the sand
to feel complete
like two perfect souls
in embrace, forever.

My first poem for this site

2004-05-24T23:57:00.000Z

Leaves

Words for you are not enough
cliche written words of love
The words I want for you
are greater than love itself
If I say, I love you
These words are like a
leaf in a forest,
I want to give you a tree
I want to give you the forest
My words fail me
My love for you is a forest
