Dedicated to my best Romanian friend Vasile
You are the one who lights up my whole world.
You are the one that brings me profound joy.
You are guardian of my heart.
I drink your words.
You are my inspiration
You are my wonderful poem
You define heartbreak
muss and all things mingy
required in this rigmarole.
You limn for me love
its rites and residues.
Unclaimed you abide
in a dead part of me.
You will last longer than me.
You live in my lines.
Wooden and round
Shined with work
Polished with love
A small satellite
Four chairs
Individual moons
All revolving
Around one

ALONE BY FAULT
AN OPEN WOUND
UNHEALED DIRTY
FILLED WITH SALT
JUST WAITING WANTING
FORSAKEN ALONE
WANDERING SEARCHING
A PLACE, HOME
COLD, SCARED
SCARRED
BUT YEARNING
HEART WAITING, BARRED
ADDICTED I THINK
MISSING THE PAIN
MY HEART MY SLEEVE
THE BLOOD THE STAIN
A BARREN SHELL
COVERED IN SKIN
SELECTIVE PICKY
WHO I LET IN
BUT I MISS YOU
PAIN HEARTBREAK
YOU MUST BE SPECIAL
FOR MY FUTURE ACHE
Come to me wearing all your scars,
come to me bring the divine tears of despair
and the darkness of your fall,
you see i want it all from you,
don’t worry, the softness of our lips
will change the fate.
Stone walls
Stand up high
Where our hearts should
Be
Where our unity
Should be
We watch bridges burn
Where our love
Should be
We practice chants
Of hatred.
Never did you learn who I was
never did I learn who you were
now you live in me
I do belong to you.
Beyond life, love
(moving target of arrows)
the lightest thing:
your life belongs to mine.

If you were here, life would smile
The desert would taste the Nile
Birds would never stop singing
The sun would never stop burning
Trees would blossom in the fall
Leaves would grow but never fall
My heartbeats would call your name
Each beat would never be the same
I would look at you and never blink
Into your deep heart I would sink
I would feel the warmth of your breath
Butterflies would never know death
Stars would happily dance in the sky
Mountain dew would never dry
The sun would never set
Trees would never be wet
Snow would never melt
Sorrow would never be felt
Joy would always dominate
The moon would never be late
The desert would be green
Sand would never be seen
Flowers would no longer wither
Day and night would be seen together
Storms would stop blowing
Rivers would never stop flowing
If you were here, in my arms so near
Life would stop orbiting only to hear
The heart that beats only for your sake
Promise me you will never break
Marvelling the lumpy meadows, bathing in the sunlight,
Praising ye olde proud countryside
That won my heart in full, not part!
That distant spirit of the Roman age…
This place can change, this place has changed
At least one heart, in full, not part.
And left to ask yourself a question:
Does love exist, love at first sight,
That makes you feel the height, the light?
Oh, what can be a greater threat
Than to fall in love with Somerset?
We won’t be here much longer
Can’t imagine what that means
Words don’t lead to understanding
What is really left in store
Our love is so much stronger
Our hearts know what that means
There’s no need for understanding
While I’m lying next to thee
