《听闻远方有你》

I wish you were here  

By S.B. September 4, Saturday, 2021

The trail along the coastline is
Covered with falling leaves.
The Fragrant wild flowers 
Turn into ripen fruits.
The forest is dotted with 
Yellow, orange, and crimson foliage.

Still the sun is bright,
Brilliant in the sky.
The little creek runs merrily by.

My dear,
I wait on the sandy beach 
For you 
By the turquoise blue.

I wish you were here,
When the autumn breeze 
Gently blows my long hair.

Falling
 
Oh, my handsome Prince
I woke up from your sweet magic kisses 
My heart was dancing and giggling with happiness
But I didn’t open my eyes 
I wanted the moment to last a little longer
I wish I could somehow preserve it for ever
 
Oh, my sunshine
I wish you knew how happy you made me feel
I felt like a little girl 
I buried my face in my pillow
Smiling like a girl first time in love 
 
You came into my life
Like a gust of wind 
Swept me off my feet
A bit dizzy
A little confused
But mostly amazed
I am
 
How did you do that?
Who gave you the power?
I watched myself falling 
But can't help it
 
You'd better catch me!

Into the Void

How many times have I said I love you?

But words are just not adequate 
To express my feelings inside 
Hugging and kissing helps
Still not enough

Even when our bodies and souls 
are deeply connected
Still I desire for something more

Can we reach that peak 
where Nothing exists anymore
Not even you nor me
Just the plain void?

That’s the place I want to be
Where there is nothing 
Yet everything

In a Deep Dark Hole

You said,
You were hurt,
You felt down and low.
You fell into a deep dark hole.
And you wanted to
Lie down flat low
At the bottom
For a while.

Why not, said I.
I'm coming down
To lie down next to you.
We watch birds flying high
In the sunlight.
We watch comets
Shooting across the sky
At night.

At the bottom
Of that deep dark hole,
You and I lie down flat
And stay low.

Raindrops in Your Eyes

I had a dream last night
It was raining 
The soft and warm rain
That I always like
I enjoyed walking in the rain
To feel the raindrops touching my skin

But you, you said that
You didn’t like rain
It made you sad and want to cry
Because she left you 
On that rainy rainy night

I kept you dry
So that the raindrops would not get
In your eyes

The Heart’s Will

The heart has her own will
No matter how the mind says otherwise 
Untouched, 
She chooses one 
Then closes the valves 

He walks by
Leisurely takes a glance
Taken by surprise by her cordiality and pureness 
He knocks at the door

For The First Time

For the first time,
I’m not afraid to lose.

You and I might forever be apart,
Our souls will always be together.
Of that I’m so sure.

I Feel Pretty This Morning

Feb 28, 2022. 

I feel pretty this morning 
Waking up with last night’s kisses
Still lingering on my lips, 
And with your smiling face 
In my mind

I feel pretty this morning 
Seeing you standing there
In the glorious morning sunlight 
With such a passion 
Gazing at me

I feel pretty this morning 
When you kiss me good morning 
Whispering your love to my ears
That could have melt a heart of stone

I see a green flash before my eyes 
And, a morning glory 
Bursting into a full bloom

River

Together,
You and I fell into a river
And drowned.

A beam of warm sunlight, and 
The ocean’s roaring sounds
Brought us back to life 
In this glorious hour of dawn.
