Once sparkling eyes never know tranquility, Searching for you in the empty streets Of The city that never sleeps, Just as I won't sleep this night. I'm a slave of my own devotion, Sinking in tender warmth, Falling into your arms... But it's just in my swollen mind. I keep thinking if it is love, And I wonder if love has brakes. No way! Even if it had, Now and then would still be too late. I'm a prisoner of my pride That's dissolved in your skin's sweet scent. I could draw you if I was blind - It's your face that I can't forget. A calm ocean and a shore - That is what we once used to be: Always close, though never whole, Now you hardly remember me. And my life is a damned card game, Just a patience that's in your hands. But you simply refuse to play. Well, you choose, as you have this strength. |

This is another excellent example of something that should be an eagerly sung song. As a musician/song-writer myself, I appreciate this kind of writing more than the average poet might. Bravo. ·´~`·»Garapan«·´~`· |
