Your dreams in a cage,
the broad-leafed tree windblown sways --
it cannot move much.

When you're faced with something you don't understand, I think the most natural thing but also least interesting thing you can be is afraid.

The grace of June bugs
Never get me through July
My wings wait restless
you should know i am a time traveler &
there is no season as achingly temporary as now
but i have promised to return

my wings wait restless
for the sun; it will come at
the breaking of dawn.
In a shadow there is the blessing of a shadow.

The breaking of dawn
through many heart-shaped leaves glows,
the flame-coloured spots.

Those flame-colored spots...
where the sun breaks through the night,
I guess they're called stars.

"I guess they're called stars,"
I whisper. You smile, and
I know I'm in love.
I was born to speak all mirth and no matter.

the worst sadness is
we leave so much un-said, and
we don't hear our hearts. {i never heard you}
you should know i am a time traveler &
there is no season as achingly temporary as now
but i have promised to return

We don't hear our hearts
over the crickets' music-
silence -- night thickens.

silence - night thickens.
the crescent is bleeding ink
around the north star
bas ek rahe mera kaam ishq,
mera kaam ishq,
mera kaam ishq

Around the north star
clouds gather, but the rushing
river cuts the hill.

river cuts the hill;
we gather together on
the grass, a picnic.
In a shadow there is the blessing of a shadow.

the grass, a picnic
always forgives me
while i look at stars
psalm 147:3- he heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.

love ya
