When Our Shadows Melt

When life's lights goes out
And death is crowned in shame

When the clock's last tock halts
And the shadows fade in sorrows

When the last candle falls
And my heart beats no more

When you hear my voice no more
And yet nowhere to trace me

When the eternal gates shut close
And you feel my breath not

When the pictures paint my smiles
And the inks write my words

When you call me
And hears my voice no more

When I am laid lonely
And no one ready to stay with me

When you know I am no more
And you have to move on with life

When you know I love you
But death separates us

The Bleeding Heart

Serenity blushes the shadows mild
And blow soft wind like "pepi"
As your dent romances me with pains
That worm over my body like death

Erecting my emotions like breath
As disappointments walk me through this journey of solitary
With my prints clapping in the sands
Hiding my fears in clouds of tears

As if there were no you tomorrow
Here the scorching sun shivers
Sharing her cries over my head
To console this bereft heart

That bleeds in tons of memories
With skips of pages one after the other
To silent the sweet tastes
That last but for a while

It is this bleeding heart
