Skeleton in closet

It is a skeleton in your closet,
Holding a picture of when you're five
Coral bones hiding between your socks
Such deathly glare made you giggle to glee
Tock-to-ticking of your silver clock
Made Mr. Bone cracked his humor two-three
But Mr.Skeletal-so-skinny, say you please
Leave the closet or pay rent, at least.

la lumiere

même si le vent me souffle-
ou la mer m'emporte au loin
j'espere que mes r
êves, ils deviennent
la lumiere de mon coeur

me ramener toujours

Opera

Frequently, people talk of going to concerts and performances here and there. But when I have the financial capability one day, I'll treat myself to an opera performance. Preferably in Prague. But I'd be happy with a performance here as well. There's something more meaningful in opera, I think.

I'd love to watch George Bizet's Carmen. Or maybe Verdi's La Traviata.
Someday.
Maybe I'll work hard this summer to save up.
=)

Eggs & Coffee

I like my eggs sunny side up.
With the yolk round
On a skillet.
It makes me feel accomplished
When my egg is so perfect.

I like my coffee with two teaspoonfuls
Of sugar.
Actually, two cubed sugar
Would be prettier.

Erase

It's never too late to start new. Nor is it wrong to have new beginnings everyday. So maybe we do not have an erase button in our life. But that's a blessing, right?
Think about it, Shaf.
Quit justifying your mistakes.
Accept it, and sleep.

Pfft.
But not without blogging it to remind yourself first.

Fiery Tangerine

You're like a tangerine in fire,
As I witness you burn yourself
To drown and drown-
Behind the naked twigs and branches
Promising spring to come

Drown-
Drown into the frozen canal of white and blue
Where happy skaters once skate on
With teeth-grinning smiles and hearts so free
But numbed by the cold

So numb-
And you, burning tangerine,
Sink my deepest sorrow and anxiety with you.
For one as beautiful as you,
My burning tangerine
Lighting the sky to bloom
Of purple and blue,
You bring me fiery hopes of another day so new.


Dedicated to Leanna who requested I wrote about sunset.
Cheers.=)

So we'll just wait,
& leave my fate in His hands.
If it's meant to happen it will.
But I pray He opens your heart, and opens mine.
& that you be protected by His grace.
