Destined Sun

A winter sun shines on my face
as I bicycle through the cold
Red, warm cheeks
Legs peddle a rhythm of a song
only you and me can hear
And although on my left
I see dark clouds gather
above the river,
soon rain may start to fall
and I miss you more
than I can say,
this song in my heart,
a song about
our endless summer,
will be my destined sun
that no cloud can take away

I Am The Ocean

I lie on my bed
I breathe
and think of you
on the other shore
in a land far away
I breathe in, breathe out
As I rise and fall,
as I wave
on my breath
I imagine to be the ocean
that pulls the two
separate continents together
so their shores can kiss

Comfort

When I miss you
I go outside to look at the stars
and then I always feel
you close again
for if those ancient lights can cross
such an immeasurable distance
to reach me
then our ancient love
can cross all those miles too

The Mammoth

Sometimes the past comes
like a mammoth in my now
Large and heavy it marches
No way I can escape it
Until I realize, mammoths
died long time ago

And then, with a smile
I just sit and watch
the mammoth pass
as I hear the sound of birds
and see the blue skies
in my peaceful
present moment

To Make It Ours

And although
you can always
live and see my world
through my eyes
feel it through my heart
and follow
my footsteps
in my images and words
I wish you could see it
with your eyes,
I wish you could
make your footsteps
next to mine
and find your own words
in my world
to make it ours

Cosmic Kiss

As Saturn and Jupiter
are conjunct tonight
and shine together as one
as the long-awaited Christmas star
to bring a message
of hope and love
at the Winter Solstice,
the darkest day of the year,
go up with me into the heavens
we cross the ocean between us
and meet halfway
to have our own cosmic kiss

Lights On The Map

Here in this town time seems to fade
as memories whisper to me
in images,
in eyes that find each other
in arms that embrace

We left our traces
in all the towns we’ve been together
where our hearts once met
and made electricity
those places still light up
and mark the map
