10 (i thought i had something)
I THOUGHT I had something to say to her when our eyes met in the road.
But she passed away, and it rocks day and night
like an idle boat on every wave of the hours
the thing that I had to say to her.
It seems to sail in the autumn clouds in an endless quest
and to bloom into evening flowers
seeking its lost words in the sunset.
It twinkles like fireflies in my heart to find its own meaning
in the dusk of despair
the thing that I had to say to her.
