I pushed through.
Her visage reflecting in my eyes.
Her tears resembling my impotence.
Vain masculinity.
...

Thoughts,
they come and go.
Like waves wash the shores,
back and forth.
...

You are gone.
Your love for me is gone.
Your smell lingers in my mind.
Your breath, your moves,
...

Someday,
When I can convince my parents of this misery,
Of the shackles that this skin is,
Of the cage that these flesh and bones of mine are,
...

There was something about her.
Something, beyond words could capture.
Something, so subtle...mysterious.
Yet, so strangely definitive.
...

That night we made love to each other.
Love, in its truest, purest and fiercest form.
It was clearly evident,
How much we had missed each other,
...

Take me to your lands, O Goddess!
Your lands beyond the clouds.
Your lands of free spirits and no boundaries.

Take me to your lands, O Goddess!
...

Under the starry sky,
Far from the din of the day.
Closer,
More intimate with, within the self,
...

I love the feeling, you know?
when you run your hands through my hair.
I love the spark, you know?
in your eyes when I am with you.
...

Tiring,
these days have grown.
There is a lot on my head.
I sit under my porch,
...

Hard to understand,
Harder to defy,
LIFE!
