the last poem

every night,i make myself a promise,
that this is the last poem i am writing for her,
and every night,
i break my promise.and write,
another last poem,
failed monument to postriety,
which she will never read…..
why do i write these last poems,
which never really are the last?
or is THIS the last poem?
i do not know,
but i wonder..
why does poetry arise?

another sad poem

i will write another sad poem-
tonight,i will again think of her,
prometheus’ curse placed upon my heart,
she(i?) eats it out everynight,
only to grow back in the day..
another cycle-a blessing?

those hours of bright sunshine,

why does it bother me that i lost you,
when i had never won you?
after so many months and years of dreaming of you at nights,
what does it matter that sleep should not arrive?
why should i care that your face no [...]

neutral spaces

Tonight is a new night,
And you and I are strangers again,
Lets get used to this feeling…
Lets start talking again,
In neutral spaces,
A verbal no-man’s-land,
Lets put our feelings there, safely out of the way..
Let them not bother us again,
For we are finally free,
Of each other, and of our own selves…
Lets now move on..
From fire,
onto the next cold [...]
