Dor de tine

Mi-e dor de chipul tău crăiasă,
În pași de dans să-l simt zâmbind;
Îmi faci clipa mai frumoasă,
Când în gând mi te cuprind…

Îți simt privirea îmbietor de caldă,
Un tremur îmi încearcă subit simțirea,
Și printre note un gest stângaci îmi scapă
Și-mi las pe chipu-ți s-alunece privirea.

Îmi ești  departe dar atât de-aproape,
Te simt în a zilei năprasnică iarnă -
Sărutu-ți cald alintă a mele pleoape,
Și-n zbor alină rană după rană.

Te-mbrățișez și nu-ți dau pace,
Până nu-mi șoptești cuvinte de iubire,
Îți răspund în gesturi largi, stângace,
Mi-alint dorul în a ochilor sclipire.

Vântul se-ncearcă afară în șarade,
Mă uit pe cer și știu că undeva anume,
Printre a zilei noi de an petarde,
Un gând poartă pe aripi al meu nume.

Warriors of Light

Where is light there is some dark -
It is there, you feel its spark,
Fighting light behind the vail,
By all means has to prevail!

You feel the dark, its soundless depth,
An abyss feeding on your wrath,
On threads of feelings, stems of hate,
If not aware, they seal your fate!

You feel as eats you from inside
Bad and good, as they collide,
In circle of life, from ages fight
For what is wrong, for what is right!

In darkest days we search for light
In words of wisdom, full of might,
They light a candle in the night,
Full of meanings and insight!

We pray for peace of our soul,
We learn the strength, self-control,
Accept the shadows of the past,
All the weakness that they cast!

By breath we purify the mind,
With it we light the paths we find,
We learn to love what’s not to love,
From our depth and from above!

We embrace fate in darkest nights,
We deeply kneel, as faithful knights,
We serve the light, what’s ever right,
As peaceful warriors we fight!

About Love

Gaze inside your hardened heart
Under the deep scars of life
You'll find the seeds of love
Lurking their way to light!

Look inside, under the known,
Dive deep from mark to mark,
Be gentle and learn seeds grow,
With your smile’s candid spark!

Accept your scars and nurture
With the light you find within,
Make more room for future -
Lose the weights of any sin!

Bathe your love in souls’ stream
Find one to be anchored within,
Float together in life’s venture –
Make love long-lasting adventure!

Discover and nourish new senses -
What keeps you together, even apart,
Build bridges over those fences -
Barriers should perish by light!

Cherish each moment that bounds,
Feel your love from the grounds,
Spread its light to old, to youth -
Help others find their truth!

And if ever life drifts you apart
Transmute love, a new start
When time has come will grow,
Live, love and go with the flow!

Dor de casă

În struna de lăută îmi înecai amorul
Pribeag, pierdut de lume îmi duc dorul
Un vechi pahar îmi însmierește zborul
Și vinul îmi șoptește, bată-l dorul!

Și lăutarul cântă dulce-n al meu grai,
O strigătură - un colțișor gândit de rai;
Sorb cu năsaț, cuvintele-n alai,
Privind aievea un colțișor de plai.

Lăuta răsună cald în auzuri,
Amintirile curg, râuri, gânduri
Se așează printre struguri
În ale zilei reci amurguri.

Închin paharul către cer, sihastru,
Mă oglindesc adânc în cel albastru,
Și gândul îmi zburdă măiastru,
Spre-un colțișor de plai, ilustru.

Ripples in a Cup of Tea

Gazing in an half-empty cup of tea
I found somehow the harmony -
The more I spilled, the more I got,
My cup filled thought with thought.

I sip the tea, enjoy the being moment -
I feel its warmth, I seek its scent;
The thoughts come fluid in a wave,
Each sip has meanings that I gave.

A pause, a fluent long pause,
Between the sips the moments froze -
A thought arose has disappeared,
I sensed its trace, its shadow reared.

The drops ripple in the cup I hold
Back and forth they patterns mold -
The waves grow deeper in my mind,
New meanings times new paths I find.

The cup is empty long for now;
Before my master I deeply bow -
The mind bows deeper in consent,
And there's nothing, just the bent.

The Rose

The winter came to us again -
You feel its breath in every den,
And burning for the sake of men
The fire fights since long its reign.

Outside the frost from all has bitten,
The flowers’ destiny is thus written –
With every trice a humble soul
Will find its way into the all.

As the light descends into the dark,
A candid rose shown its spark,
At first a pale red entrusts the light,
Then it turns from pale to bright.

I run outside to see myself the show,
How the petals in moon’s light glow;
I wonder its strength to live a life,
Short, above all of beauty rife.

I light a fire in the night’s dark cold,
Its life in mind I can behold;
Is it the fire or the lonely rose,
That melts my heart into the froze?

The rose - splendid in its fought,
Spreads its wings in its ought
Of feeling life deep in its veins -
Between the stars its life pertains.

I closed my eyes and took a shot,
I froze the rose deep in my thought,
From time to time a tea I sip,
Breaks the silence, stillness, deep.

My eyes reflect for long the rose,
Until the dawns in sky arose,
I wake up cold but warm inside -
Death and life in bluest sky collide.

I move refreshed from dawns to life,
The cold still pierces as a knife,
But as I close my eyes I see,
The splendid rose, alive and free.

Nowadays Revolutions

Rebel the thought, rebel the mind,
Rebel the world that I find -
Revolutions shatter the time and space
Borders are broken in the wild race
People change, all world is change,
The space was never more dense -
Connected but lonely we sense!

Senses are broken, senses ignored,
Between pretenses another world's bore,
Boredom enslaves the poor minds
Souls transgressed by their finds,
Spiritual drawn in material, naked,
Its values but ashes from tainted smoke -
Richer we are but forever broke!

Romance is Dead

How much I loved a thought of love
Candid in whisper came from above!
I longed its touch in middle night,
To spread its wings of light.

I waited for a sign in vain,
For a smile that never came,
I longed for her in every sense,
Just candored love, and no pretense.

The years gone one by one,
Alone in thoughts under the sun,
Have left a shadow of contempt,
Of lost words never remeant.

My heart has felt the weight of time,
My soul is laying on a shrine,
Images of love gone one by one,
Feelings for long forgotten, gone.

The romance is dead… or maybe not,
I see its shadows in each thought,
And where is dark there’s some light -
The hope has strength and might.

Graffiti

Graffiti -
Meaningless meaning
Overdressed as wisdom.

Wisdom -
A drop of meaning
In the ocean of knowledge.

Knowledge -
The illusion of meaning
Withdrawn from information.

Information -
Spikes of meaning
Shadowing the icebergs of data.

Data -
Sketched meaning
On timeless paper of life.

Life -
Continuous endeavor
In the search of meaning.

Meaning -
Expression of thoughts
In random graffiti.

The Rock Dancer

Emphatic in movements
She draws in the air
Thin lines of beauty.

Loving the music
Is she defining
Seconds of stillness;

Alive in the rhythms
Born with each moment,
Experiences the life.

Embracing the music,
Thus is her life,
Highway of feelings.

Remembrance – Immature Verses

I touch your face like in a dream -
Forgetting myself on your skin -
I feel no time, just your face,
High of love, full of grace.

I feel your smile as it caresses,
My hand, my heart, my senses -
Naked they are under your touch,
Feel themselves like in a clutch.

You let yourself into embrace,
I feel your heart caught in a race
With thoughts, with senses full of joy,
I melt myself like an alloy.

Your lips in rush to follow mine,
Sound on my skin, your touch divine,
Your eyes just deepen in the night
Sensing the world in its delight.

I wonder you in every art
As I become from you a part;
I lose myself into your eyes,
And lost I am trice by trice.

………………………………………..

I wake up in darkness, night,
I look for you, I search for light,
I feel your scent floating around,
No shadow, I lack a sound.

I dreamed?! It felt so real!
Alone, deceived, the cold, the still,
I rebel myself against the thought -
I felt your candid love, or not?

I fell asleep thinking of you -
Just wishing for your sight anew;
As night is conquered by the light,
I feel your warmth, it feels right.

…………………………………………

A sound invades my morning sleep -
I hear your heart, your laughter, deep,
I feel your hands around my face,
Your touch, comforting in its brace.

It is so real – is it you? I bear a thought -
I was alone, or was I not?
I dear to glimpse the light of day,
And there is you, I hear you say:

You missed me darling? I was gone,
Not long I hope, I had to run,
Your birthday cake delays no wait,
Wake up, is kind of late!

I felt your kiss, I was relieved -
Was not a dream, as I believed!
I kissed you back in an embrace -
You are my gift, my heart’s grace!

Deep There

Deep there within the universe
There's a soul akin,
Completing you in every sense -
In darkness, light, sublime.

Deep there you'll meet someday the one,
You'll feel, forget, and feel again,
You'll love and stop into the run -
Content with sun and rain.

Deep there between the clouds of stars
You'll find a place called home,
You'll build your time under quasars -
Your space, your heart, your dome.

The Traveler

Lost between many worlds
And belonging to none,
That's the punishment
Of being a traveler.

I travel those worlds
And the space in between,
Searching for my self
And finding none.

I long for companion
On the roads I take,
I long for wisdom
Chasing my own faith;

My longings keep me awake,
My hardship gives me no brake,
I go with the flow,
The past left behind;

Enjoying the moment I find,
I embrace it and mold it,
My teacher becomes -
The world becomes mine.

In-sanity

I left home to find myself;
To try my steps in foreign lands,
To see the known in thousand places,
To feel the sky in heights and width,
To breath new moments of attainment,
To hear the sounds of the unknown,
To touch the hearts and to be touched,
To mix together old and new.

I lost myself between people -
Workers, preachers, the quire,
Images of me, mirrors of you,
They ramble looking for something,
Caught themselves into games;
Lost are themselves as I walk by,
But proud by the grains they know -
Losing themselves in the findings.

Beauty, darkness, feelings,
Blended in souls like me and you;
Richness, new and archaic,
Designs of wonder forgotten in mire,
Mire transformed beyond art,
They sketch a world of desires,
Subdue and stir the daily thirst,
Enlighten thus the spirit.

I returned home to find myself;
The way I am, I was, before,
Older and not much wiser,
Wiser but not much older,
Stilled myself into fire,
Softened myself into wind,
Drained myself by the waters,
Filled myself by the light.

Walking back on my footsteps -
Beautiful old places,
Glad to be discovered anew;
It's wonder to see old new faces,
Smiling before me, some faded in blue,
They seem to know my quest's sin -
I lost myself to find myself anew...

Frozen Thoughts

I'm just a simple childish man
Lost in your smile again, again,
Lost in my words I find no sound -
Just sound echoes of my mind.

I search some words worthy of me,
The way I am, I know I'd be,
The way I know I can describe
The world, myself, you feel the vibe?

I search for words, I find myself,
Chaotic thoughts frozen in shelf,
There is light, there is some dark,
Pastelled forms on life’s lark.

I try to reach you between clouds,
I fall, I rise, I have no bounds,
My thoughts are frozen but alive,
For life’s meanings, oh they strive!

………………………………………………

I breathe the moment as it comes,
I take my faith between the rhymes,
I hope you'd find a way to reach,
Behind the walls of speech…
