Passion


As the sea longs for its shore
then so it is my heart which aches for you
May just as careless be my kiss;
for it will never be enough to only say
- “I love you”

Bittersweet






A
s I am caught

between a smile and a tear

How is comfort enough to know

you loved me once
When why is never enough to say

- “I love you still.”

Heartless




G
ood bye my heart –

As you were all I had to give
Was it not enough to need you more
That I leave you in the arms
- of the one I love
