Though you can read there is no guarantee that you should ever seek out word from me though I have written countless poems too solely addressing, solely seeking you. But if in distant reach, in other country, you should find […]

In rainy weather I remember how she pulled over her head the wide hood of her black coat to protect her straightened hair so that she wouldn’t take the injury of curls undone by rain and falling to the wind […]

I wanted to show you a different world, a world full of beauty and longing, so dreamlike that you’d never know it was real till you fell asleep in the morning But how can I show you when all that […]

Lay down your head     –     lay down to rest here on my chest           –     heavy as lead, and sleep my dear, sleep quietly, sink into dreams’ imagery Dream peacefully          […]

With golden strings inwoven like tiny light-beams, with sunshine interwoven in your hair, you rest in dreams, your head upon my chest with the golden hair cloven into two braids of mild unrest With eyelids flickering observing your dreams, you […]

When awake you’re yours but in your sleep you’re mine, I steal you unbeknownst to you with my eyes’ longing shine when looking at your face at peace and hoping that my presence may cause you to dream of me […]

Last night’s dream is now a fleeting thought – it evaded you at dawn at sun’s first beam, and if you aren’t careful, soon it’ll turn to nought It remains, lingering as a shadow in your heart – thought less […]

A goddess wove a splendid web, but before done, by dawn she fled, and left the mass of golden, tangled thread spread out beneath your head

on a hillside in the sunlight, heated only on one side while the other remains cold, you stand, covering your eyes with your hand, watching the skies growing paler all the while they approach the horizon so dark and yet […]

A pale shining light cast in darkness; a dream tapestry on which I might imprint my desires and write my hopes – with or without your knowledge then I’ll cloak you in them till your days are spent

I want to see the raindrops in your hair, after a summer shower, warmly refreshing, resembling the pearl necklace which you bear, (the one he bought you), shimmering white and fair as beautiful as your shining eyes and ivory skin […]

My hand was once inwoven in your hair – I feel it still. My thoughts rely thereon when through the air I sense – oh, thrill! – a smell like your perfume – I couldn’t bear to carry on without […]

Dancing careless through the streets in your flower dress with music in your voice and summer in your eyes. Unnoticed by your light I stand here in the shade while you outshine the sun. You laugh and flirt and talk […]

Disenchant what I have treasured, treasured in my heart for years – disenchant yourself and free me from my own continuous tears What’s the use of crying – tell me – when you’re crying for a dream? What’s the use […]

You are a trail of smoke inside my head. Will it condense and turn to rain which falls to cool my smoldering heart? You are a vision pure and innocent like death – a secret being born out of my […]

I’ve seen you today – well, what’s for me to say? That there’s no part of you not in my heart? I’ve left you anyway – well, what’s for me to say? The past is dead; I’m seeking a new […]
