For Reasons I Don't Know, See, "How ya doin'?", How Much Time?, Sunset.
For Reasons I Don't Know
For reasons I don't know
I can't get you outta my head
You're there when i wake up
Till the day comes to an end

For reasons I don't know
I keep on loving you
I can't convince my heart
That there was never any use

For reasons I don't know
I'm controlled by my heart
My mind rebels
Then retreats out of sight

For reasons I don't know
I still keep on hoping
That one day you'll return
To end all my longing
-July 30 - Aug 1/97


See
See the years
passing by
See the brave
give in to cries
See the tears
form an ocean
See the heart
once again broken
See the eyes
blind to the sight
See the strong
lose their might
... see me
-Aug. 2/97


"How ya doin'?"
"How ya doin'" I begin
Not sheding light on the pain
On how he meant so much to me
On how I went insane

"You're not 'just another girl'"
He once told me
But I ignored the phrase
It will just disappoint me

"School is fine, though boring"
I go on uselessly
No feeling in my words
I stare at the screen helplessly

"You're not 'just another guy'"
I once told him
Did he take it for real
Or would it disappoint him?

"Say hi to Tasha"
Of course I can't forget
I would always remember
The things that he said

"Write back, it won't kill ya"
(Though it probably would)
I never valued my writing skills
But maybe I really should

"Miss ya, love ya"
Then I signed my name
It is so incredibly hard
The feelings are still there

I pray it'll get there
It's not the first time ever
But hold on just a second,
Will he even remember?
-Aug 6/96, dedicated to JK


How Much Time?
How much time does it take
to forget a lifetime?
How many tears fall
before laughlter overcomes cries?
How many hugs does it take
to make up for the pain?
How much love felt sincerely
will erase all the hate?
-Aug. 9/97


Sunset
Bathing in the colours
of the sky’s mystery
The intrigue of its ages
stretch beyond imagining
The transormation of beauty
to the exquisite play of colours
The unknown of the beyond
in every doubtful shadow
Gets lost in the mystique
of such unigue perfection
-Aug. 9/97
