I walked the shore one lonesome night;
a shore so far from your embrace.
I heard the waves lap at the shore
and heard the voice of the sweetly singing sea.
...

There is a big black stone
on my chest
that keeps growing heavier.
I thought I was free
...

There’s a constant rumble
To the pounding beat
Of the people’s hearts
As the rhythm of the street.
...

I buried your heart
one fine spring day
and planted
a sighing rose
...

Children are the wind,
gone so soon,
but pleasant and lovely,
like the light of the moon.
...

It rains in my heart
like it rains on my window.
Cold glass
being beaten down
...

The road is narrow,
the pavement cracked.
I'm still enamored
with it's mosaic of grey
...

I feel a calm panic,
a sort of trapped fear,
driving particular small town streets
late at night.
...

What is beauty?
Where is
that strangling nymph
that so many men
...

The snow drifts down,
blue, white,
glassy on the tree branches-
The snow makes rhythm
...

I'm here again,
but I am not afraid,
not any more.
This place
...

I recognize these marks,
marks of that dark magic I knew so well,
and have learned to fear.
Suddenly the life around me is still.
...

It’s something like a fire,
Consuming and burning.
It’s something like a flower
Blooming and wilting in its time.
...

She has strength
and beauty.
she is blue sapphire
of clear glass falls.
...

The water falls from my hair
with a steady, smooth,
drip, drip, drip.
It's a cool feeling on my skin
...

In the golden spring of dawn
the Winter cracks in my memory.
The night air is still chilling
the last of the Spring's morning melody.
...

In the darkest parts of night
I heard a heart
that sang a song like mine.
I housed it in an airy house
...

This world is not so dark anymore;
you have been my lamp.
The sun is not so harsh anymore.
You are the beauty in the rain, in the snow.
...

The rain falls on the roof
With a sound like comfort,
Steady and strong.
We lay here in bed
...

Red robes of sorrow,
White in the moonlight;
White rain flesh;
Black soul full of fire;
...
