I
want you
to never
run
dry
of tears,
shed through
pain,
which
leaves you
trembling
in anticipation
of bliss

Impact
The pebble
resting for aeons on the beach -
when thrown into the sea -
caused ripples, too.

Time travel
clay tablet on my desk
at times the cuneiforms begin to speak
bringing back memories of your smile -
a smile that meant "forever"

Exodus
Frogs (br)exit their pond
leaving grenouilles tristes behind -
lurking storks ahead

Travel
desert sun at noon
snowflakes growing in the sand --
Koch's fractal abroad

Hyperbolic
branches
approaching
from opposite ends
of infinity
they'll never meet -
disjoint destinies

Nymphaea
Raindrops gather on
waterlily's giant leaf -
pond within a pond

The visitor
On a nightly walk
through Old Amsterdam's
narrow streets
One word - cast like a shadow of thoughts -
ripples the canal's black water
Echoes through nocturnal silence
while washed down to the sea
just one word -
Marie

Equation
Two hearts in one beat
make up a perfect square.
By adding one,
things get too complex to be real.

Taj Mahal
Like a butterfly
fragile and beautiful
touching my soul
you asked me to dream together
So we began to dream
of things to come
giving birth to
a bright future.
Now
you've left me behind
with no place to mourn
and
tempted by the night.
But
we've kept our promise -
forever.
