Long Distance Relationship


I have a new love
she is my world
I would die if I lost her
she is one special girl

I want to see her so bad
it makes want to cry
I just want to hold her
to look her in the eyes

We talk online every day
her messages get me through
but it is not the same
so tell me what should I do

When I do get to see her
I will be as happy as can be
but the thought of having to leave again
makes me dropp to my knees

Just thinking of her
makes my heart skip beats
and never getting to be with her
will be a terrifying feat

The pain will be horrid
my emotions running wild
but her love will pull me through
at least for a little while

It may be hard
but I will not end it
for if I lost her
my wrists i would slit

I cant live without her
my life wouldnt be whole
I love her so much
more than you could know

Here I Love You

Sometimes I get up early and even my soul is wet.
Far away the sea sounds and resounds.
This is a port.

Here I love you.
Here I love you and the horizon hides you in vain.
I love you still among these cold things.
Sometimes my kisses go on those heavy vessels
that cross the sea towards no arrival.
I see myself forgotten like those old anchors.

The piers sadden when the afternoon moors there.
My life grows tired, hungry to no purpose.
I love what I do not have. You are so far.
My loathing wrestles with the slow twilights.
But night comes and starts to sing to me.

The moon turns its clockwork dream.
The biggest stars look at me with your eyes.
And as I love you, the pines in the wind
want to sing your name with their leaves of wire.

Your Hands

When your hands leap
towards mine, love,
what do they bring me in flight?
Why did they stop
at my lips, so suddenly,
why do I know them,
as if once before,
I have touched them,
as if, before being,
they travelled
my forehead, my waist?
Their smoothness came
winging through time,
over the sea and the smoke,
over the Spring,
and when you laid
your hands on my chest
I knew those wings
of the gold doves,
I knew that clay,
and that colour of grain.
The years of my life
have been roadways of searching,
a climbing of stairs,
a crossing of reefs.
Trains hurled me onwards
waters recalled me,
on the surface of grapes
it seemed that I touched you.
Wood, of a sudden,
made contact with you,
the almond-tree summoned
your hidden smoothness,
until both your hands
closed on my chest,
like a pair of wings
ending their flight.
