Like a leaf in the river, This is how I wanted to live, But now I am afraid, Because my voice has become strange. I feel lonely But the birds know me, Because they are wild. I listen to them often, They carry my lost soul. Roses in their hands, And stolen lips. ...Read more

I will love you with a silent love A very silent love Without a word Without a glance ...Read more

I am a withered tree and my stories are tasteless. I cannot live with a boat. Here, on my land, there is no love, no poems, and all you see is withering death. Our homes are filled with bitterness, and our grass is not green. Our daughters are fields of sorrow, and our youth are mirrors of wars. Yes...Read more

My mantle is red; I am the son of wars, and all I see is my paralyzed remains. I do not remember anything about white clothes, because the brides of our city were killed before weddings, and the face of our land was smashed by an unknown. Now, we are without love and we know nothing about moon tales...Read more

I cannot read poetry, for wars have stolen my eyes, and their bitter smoke has suffocated my desires. Yes, the human spirit is a miracle, but not a miracle of beauty, as you have seen. This is my empty life, and I have no grass or child within me to witness glory. I am certain that the poet knows th...Read more

Your gaze is a hidden spring. It drowns me in a strange moment. You are a new face of the moon. The sorcerers offer you silver water. You embrace me with a golden hug. You kiss me with a kiss of lapis lazuli, So, I become something of light. Your gaze is a candle, Dazzling me with its brilliance. It...Read more

Your smile is warm, And a clear sky Your smile is life, And an eternal melody. It is my hidden wish. It is something strange, Leaving an indelible memory. Thanks to you, I truly knew love. Before you, I didn't know love, You taught me its secrets. With you, the trees became images of love, And the ...Read more

I am a shy man from the South, So, you see a rose in my heart. All I imagine is a whispering stream, A bean plant as soft as the moon, and a bit of dewy grass. I am a very shy man, I hide my smile, but my dreams are as clear as birds in flight. Now I see a sea, and I see a ship, with a country boy d...Read more

I met you in a dream. Your hand was warm For an unbelievable reason. You may not know that our dream is the only place I saw your smile. I wish I hadn't woken We still hide behind the dreams Like flowers on the road We are still without embrace Alone in the tales of the night. We still lie on the d...Read more

Just listen closely So, the moonlight may sparkle in your eyes Silence may fade from your lips And joy may shine in your nights Just listen closely So, you may capture moments of laughter Sparkle with the flowers And see the magic of shy eyes Just listen closely To feel the whispers of the evening L...Read more
