As I read your harsh and callous words
a cold hand reaches into my chest...

Fire of intense passion
Flames of love and lust burn...

Fire
Burning brightly...

On a warm August night
the light attracted them...

Flaming star (Tanka)
Flaming star guide me...

All you are able to give to me
All you are willing to be...

When life has robbed you of all,
your world turned to dark despair...

Knowing that you still care
after all I have put you through...

Watching grains of sand
as they slip through my fingers...

I keep to myself mostly
Lost inside this maze...

Fourth of July ( Senryu)
Sky rockets at night...

Today I took off my mask.
Felt the sun...
