RANDOM VERSES 2012

I go to your temple every dawn
All other idols I come upon
But don’t find a deity who can care
As you are no longer there


Although my course has been upturned
Although my wings have been burned
As long as I can see your light
Nothing at all can end my flight


Even if you vanquish me
Even if you win the war
You won’t ever forget me
On you I’ll stay like a scar


I am a sea and you are a cup
You bow down, I can’t come up
If you bow, you may have some
You will drown, though, if I come



If I can’t walk with you, it’s alright
I can hear your tales with concern
I can fare you well with lots of love
I can embrace you… once you return


Love isn’t really what I beseech
Neither do anything I want to teach
I just want to be a step, so that…
You put your foot on me and reach


My feet on the same ground as yours,
And my hands touching stars...
While I transfer the celestial light to you
You simply help me heal my scars...


What we share no one has known, my friend
And believe me, no one ever would
Our friendship will be harshly judged
And our sanctity will be misunderstood


Submit I will before your throne
Leave your armies and come alone


Walking or standing without you
Would, my love, be all the same
I, without you, am an aimless path
You, without me, a pathless aim


All has been offered… and turned back
What else is there that I could give?
Without you all is poison here…
Now take this life, who wants to live?
