Poems

Mermaid  

 
Black fire,

White water,

Will you sing for me,

I have a silver quarter?

  
I am just a poor Sailor

My Soul is my Jailor.

All I ever needed was a Song to thrive

I tried so hard not to dive..  

 
Once I knew a Mermaid

Her favorite jewel was Jade.

I gave her one - in exchange for a song

I haven’t been that happy for so long...

  
Now I live at the bottom of the ocean

Holding back the strongest emotion...

Will you be my Mermaid, love?

Will you watch over me from the above?

Rose garden

 
The first time I saw you, you were standing by the fence of the

                                    Rose Garden.

​

I don't know what you were doing and who you were waiting for at the 

                                    Rose Garden.

​

But, then and there I fell in love with you, by the fence of the

                                    Rose Garden.

​

You kissed me only once, drunk from the smell of the roses in the 

                                    Rose Garden.

​

You wanted us to meet again at the fence of the

                                    Rose Garden.

​

And I waited for you every day, but you never came at the 

                                    Rose Garden.

​

Waiting for you, my love wilted...wilted just like the roses in the 

                                    Rose Garden.

Box

 
There is one tiny box,

a box that is red,  

a box made of glass  

hidden inside my chest.

​

  A box well hidden,

a box tightly closed,

a box locked

inside my chest.

 
But, there is one tiny key

in your hands.
