If Stars Weep

If stars weep
And then die
In the midnight sky;
If flowers turn their petals
Into lonely eyes
Looking sadly at bees
That cruelly fly away;
If my heart turns
Into petrified stone,
I’ll still find a way
To send you love embraced by prayers.

Magical Essence

I cannot sleep at midnight
Listening to the summer breeze,
I want to walk with you
Down along the hypnotic river
Bathed in moonlight,
Your hair on naked shoulders
Makes me cry.

Do not be displeased
With my obsession
For your magical essence.

We Could Be Married

Catching every flower-petal dream
That falls on summer lawns,
I find my childhood still alive
In the park-like innocence
Of all my thoughts.

Meet me at dawn
In the apple orchard
Beneath the blue sky.

Destiny has designed
Our mutual happiness.

The Mystery Of Our Bodies

The marvelous music of the river flowing,
The serene meadow and the shy deer,
I dream there are no cars,
No hum of engines and the modern world,
That we make love in a grassy field,
Ours hearts child-like discovering
The mystery of our bodies.

I Could Fall In Love With You

I’m a little bird
Wanting to sing a sad song
To your gentle heart.
You’re not the most
Beautiful girl
I’ve ever seen,
But you are unique
And I could fall
In love with you.
Let me kiss your hair
As the sunlight shines
On a Scandinavian street.

Christmas Tree

When the snow falls
After midnight,
We’ll rejoice beside
The Christmas tree.

One day,
We’ll sleep in graves,
But happiness
Is the making
Of our sacred memories.

I’m not afraid
To say I love you,
I’m only afraid
To miss the opportunity.

Bicycle Summer

Bicycle summer,
Girls ride across
A moonlight bridge.

Children’s feet dangle
Into warm water,
Small wishes and innocent hearts.

In love with gentle breezes,
I thought I saw Adriana
At her grandfather’s beach house
Smiling with a wine cooler.

Her Eyes like Stars, My Dreams like Fallen Leaves

I don't think
I'll ever kiss you,
The hopeful summer is gone.

But smile for me
Beneath an autumn tree
Soft October sunset.

Let's casually walk
A leaf-strewn city street
Sipping coffee.

Every day
Humans secretly
Fall in love
And let it slip away.

Flower Petal

Her breath on a pillow
Whispering my name in her sleep,
This would make me happy
In the ephemeral world
Where there is nothing we can keep.

To touch her soul
Like you might gently caress
A flower petal,
That is enough
For this journey of goodbyes.

Truth Is Evident

Walk into my world,
The concrete prayers of the city,
Children laugh at bus stops
And wild roses cling to a broken fence
Near an old apartment complex.

There’s a thousand ways to say
I love you;
Nothing has to be memorized,
Truth is evident.
