I'Ll Meet You Again

I know not how and when
 but i will meet you again..
 Perhaps, 
 in the curls of your hairs
 or in the corner,
 in that empty chair..
 You still wear that shawl
 When the winters crawl
 May be I'll just rest on your shoulder
 when the scarlet falls..
 Or may be I'll rest on your lips
 Like a story unstripped
 Sure you'll hold onto it
 not losing the grip..
 I'll be on your fingers too
 in the letters you type
 and erasing them again
 in those sleepless nights..
 Lost few years
 in the cheers and tears
 Need a hand now to hold and steer..
 Sitting by withering flames
 If you still call me by nickname
 Sure,
 I'll meet you again..

Access

By borrowed time
they have laid down the foundations
and
shaved his head for
silence

hand 
in elbow stretch out 

halogen oven
sterile gauze
dew on wool of unstripped sheep
light under switch 
laughter

through head over toilet  bowl make a step
and by blood of unwashed mother
help the sun find its rest

he lay down in the speed
vomiting
 
beyond the blank chairs pieces of soul live
you couldn't bear

I have tank
gasoline full


you are still not speaking

I'll buy you a glasses in china shop
look at me


forever yours
