(unfit

but no 
choice.)

Life would 
be 
worthless 
and 
short
If this is 
the only 
dear life 
we 
have
Great 
plans just 
death can 
abort
to be 
useless 
once you 
met 
your grave.

And for 
those who 
die young,...

I would that I bleed, not cry

The conquered land is eroding. 
The driven snow is melting 
Because the blue flame is burning, 
Probing through the rampart, 
Penetrating the fortress

To find a light that shines most bright,

Weak men become strong
Strong men become weak,
And the sturdiest of Oaks
Are splintered into...

As I set my eyes upon you,
I was solely mezmorized,
Could the women of my dreams,
By chance, have now materialized?

The universe permitting,
Our paths will surely cross again, 
As I set out into the sunrise,
On my mind...

The seascape, lies beneath a blanket of white.
From dunes to where waves touch the sand.
The scene is hazy in the day's gray light.

What happens between these 
walls stays between these 
walls,the walls that my head are 
too familiar with,i've had 
shortlived rendezvous so often 
that I know wonder if these 
walls feel what I feel 
inside,something I...

The door is open, the breeze blows in.
The sun is shining ever so bright.
The breeze tickles the lilacs, I breathe them in.
Their scent fills me with delight.
There's a glorious day in sight.

Spring ! oh Spring...

Is gold blossoming in each branch?
At the end of spring, they fill the ranch.
Smooth, pale, or greenish-grey, crusty barks
Bright yellow, drooping Sundrops fill the parks.
In pendulous racemes, the flowers hang
As though ornaments of spring, they...
