Hard To Save

These fleeting sights
These sleepless nights
Are only of my mind
I rip my soul and body apart
Yet peace I cannot find

for it is full
of your sweet memory.

My eyes are calm
for they've become
Eden of your sweet love.

Of one Time-beat, droopy
For what of its sound was thrown up
A neighbourhood, joy-free.

Sprinkled among my memories
A little girl, humble and shy.
Sneaking her head up for a peek
Barely heard as I travel by.

Country Road

Long time!
Long time ago
I had not seen you
Turned memories..
Of childhood
Ah! Oh! Bless you! How old!
Country road.

Another memory gone,
a thought lost to ether,
but still he laughs and 
is cheerful,
even if he doesn’t
know who I am.

Shadowless autumn light,
A gate to inbetween;
Neither morning nor evening,
Neither memory nor dream.

a lover's lair
a cold spring day
a love affair
a first hug
a first kiss 
a memory made
a time of bliss
