Knight

I’m lying on the ocean
and I’m dreaming about you.
Will you be my prince?
The one who
brings me sunflowers.
The one whose words
reach my heart.
The one who
brushes my hair aside.
The one who is
the sun on cloudy days.
The one who
can make me laugh.
Who wants to see a smile
on my face.
Will you be the one?
who cares what I feel
who listens what I say
who remembers what I like
who knows what I want.
Will you be my knight?
or another
episode
meaningless
dust
on my eyelash
that
uninvited
tried to come in
through the locked door

It’s over

Although I look out the window every day,
I’ll pretend I cannot see you.
I don’t want you to get hurt, honey.
Just leave.

It’s stronger than me,
but I must stop it.
Believe me…
That’ll be better.

It will end,
before it starts for good.
It must be so and don’t try to change it.
I’ll just leave.

I know it’s stronger than you,
but you must stop it.
Believe me…
That’ll be better.
