A Precious Man 

 

The nights and days pass without a smile.

The days seem endless without a smile.

The nights are spent waiting for a call or a message.

This time away from you feels so costly.

 

You are my precious pearl,

a diamond hidden in the mud,

and I wait for the day

when I can hold you close and kiss you.

 

You are my treasure, hidden from the sun,

and I await the day we meet again,

awaiting your gaze,

awaiting your lips.

 

You are my precious pearl,

hidden in an oyster deep beneath the sea.

You are my precious man.

You 

 

My poem,

you,

whose face I have not seen for years.

 

You,

the most amazing being,

whom I cannot touch.

 

You,

whose beauty lies in the smallest pieces

of your body and mind.

 

You…

I cannot explain why,

though I know what I feel.

 

You,

who crossed my path one day,

when the forces of love or passion

touched me without reason.

 

I look towards the east,

while you look towards the west.

Miracles happen every day.

 

You,

a passion I can hold

in a private moment,

a love I freely give,

a love that may never be understood.

 

You…

in another corner of the galaxy.

 

You,

my ideal,

my secret garden.

 

You,

the moments I have never known,

the distance between two countries,

and a bridge I will try to build

to reach you.

Good Night Poem 

 

What a caterpillar might call the end,

a butterfly calls the beginning

of a beautiful journey.

 

The stars are far away,

yet we can see their light

and feel their warmth,

as I think of you.

 

Days and nights come together;

there is no distance,

only the sun,

only the moon,

and, for once, they are together

in this beautiful sky.

 

I think of you through the days;

my heart,

my body,

my soul

wake up

and dance in a circle.

 

Imagine you are here,

imagine you are close to me,

imagine our life beginning.

 

This is my wish,

my prayer,

for you are my hope,

my inspiration,

through these long years of loneliness…
