Faithfully

08/07/2020

Far beyond what one may see
 Amidst what seems to be unknown
  In times where reason loses power
   Through moments where one might feel alone
    Hold out your hand and reach ahead
     Find that light that seeks your soul
      Untie the fears that bind your spirit
       Let tides guide, give time control
        Listen to what fate has to say, and
         You’ll find peace at the end of the day

限界 (Limit)

08/06/2020

I used to drown in quiet
in oceans of unsaid words,
deep beneath the hollows
where my sorrows can’t be heard.
I used to tape together
a handful of my pieces,
wrap them with a fancy smile
and wait til the pain ceases.
But one day it just all runs out
no “when”, no “how”, no “why”.
you’ll feel a little bit too shattered
but at least there won’t be tears to dry.

” もういいわよ。限界だ。”

Reticence

08/05/2020

Greatness is not vain,
nor is it impudent.
Beauty doesn’t seek attention;
you’ll know it by the moment.
For there’s power in silence
more than pride can ever seize;
like the quiet force of wild defiance
from waters that run deep.
And meekness is no penance
but strength under control;
what seems to be a simmer
could boil up a hundredfold.
So beware of feeble embers
in moors that may seem dark.
For the wildest of fires
could start from tiny sparks.

Hiraeth

08/02/2020

Got used to being with you so much,
I forgot how to be without you
I guess what I’m trying to say is that,
I miss you and I don’t know how not to

I keep finding you in everything
and in all the songs I listen to
And every night all the stars line up
just to paint me a picture of you

And through the passing of each day
I yearn for your ‘I love you’s,
Your smile, your touch, and pretty much
just everything about you

And now I’m here, another night;
another moment of solitude
Reminiscing precious memories
and moments spent by us two

Weathering With You

08/01/2020

If for every single raindrop
is a moment more with you
I’d trade all the rays of sunlight
and all the skies of blue

For no amount of sunshine
holds a candle to your light
Even the shadow of your spirit
bathe my soul with gentle bright

So let go, not of my hand,
but of doubts and all the fears
In all this dizzying scenery
there is one thing that is clear

No matter all the stormy weather
In love we’ll never loose
Spring, summer, fall, and winter
It’s you I’ll always choose

“MAMA”

05/10/2020


is the first word
that comes out my mouth
when things turn out so bad

is who I yearn for
when I feel lonely,
or when I’m sad

is what I yell out
when I’m scared
and out of faith

is who I call for
when living frightens
and hope betrays

is my prayer
when I feel helpless
and out of words

is the greatest answer
to every orison
God’s ever heard

Burn Out

03/07/2020

And one last time it flickers
one last fire
one last flare

one last spark of fiery spirit
one last flame
one last prayer

one last blaze of ash-cold fire
one last power
one last pain

one last final great surrender
one last battle
one last bane

one last.
last one.
