ASPIRE TO ILLUMINATE - -

alike firefly's sapphire glow, ever 
shine into the depth of my 
latent conscience, in
your mysterious 
eyes, there's
some 
flow of celestial stream, it's heard, 
that, from your door nobody 
returns with empty lap, 
the desert of life 
waiting for 
your 
affectionate clouds shadow, don't
forget to keep benedictory
fingers on my restless
eyelids, entire 
life, I didn't 
sleep 
comfortably, chased the mirage -
day and night - -

THE STRANGE PATH - -

a foggy path which goes toward
the unknown destination, if 
you believe, just do 
not hesitate 
to come 
out,
I'm still waiting on the desolate -
strand, unconditional exit 
is required in flow 
of love, aside 
from the 
whole 
world, ready to go erased, the 
infinite votive which knows
only slow smolder, 
alike the 
incense sticks of ruined temple 
sanctum sanctorum.
