Just One Time

现在
不太近了
不太远了
从我这里
到你那里

只一个月
以后
很远了

只一年
以后
太远了

只一个天
以前
只一个见面

只几个月
的时候
只几个书信

只足够时间
说你好
说再见

几个笑容

一片照片
两个笑容
很多记忆
四个笑容

小的笑容
变的大了
新的笑容
什么变的

New Beginnings

一本小卉
有本小荄
一小杯水
成长热情
如没有水
热情死了
你的选择

Too little, too much

"The young lose years from their lives,
… because they fear death too little."
"The old lose life from their years,
… because they fear death too much"

Succession

The adults of my youth
are going the way of
the elders of my youth
leaving me an orphan
in the body of an adult
posing as an elder

Passing

Mourn our loss
celebrate their life
await our turn

Erosion

waves crashing against the shoreline of our life,

eroding away our landscape

until it takes us

one by one

A picture and 10 minutes

Breath-taking peaks
veiled in wispy clouds
a narrow valley
shadowed by it's depth

I want to walk the valley
I want to wander the slopes
I want to push aside the clouds
And linger long at the peaks.

Balance

Living in the Real
Seeking the Ideal,
Striving for Balance

2013 November

Wandering & wondering

Looking back at my life
How did I get to here?
It was small steps
with, to, and for
people who meant a lot

Sad enough to say,

 that you will never see

How you changed my way

Or what you meant to me

Just like those
who came before

Never saw me

as you saw me.

One of; None of

I often miss being your

   one and only

Although I'd rather be

   one of many

Than as I am now as

  none of any.

2013 October

Embracing mistakes

I've apologized,
I've explained,

all to no avail
what the hell,

time to choose
nothing left to lose

by embracing it
and then leaving it
