Fleeting Thought

Like a bird flying high

I could touch the sky
For you…
Like waters of river deep 
One cold silver sip
I’d take for you…
One step to the abyss endless and black
I would take this step
I would fall in the darkness
For all dreams to come true
I wrote a scenery of another story
Landscape of pale memory
Wild and tameless
For all dreams to come true
I wrote my fleeting thought
A lost blind word
Lines of rhyme and shame
Without a sinful name
Without a name of mine
Lines would dwell for a lifetime
They will be forgotten, lost deep in mind
Like tears of mine in the night
I wrote this dream for you
A bird song, a flight across the sky
Beauty of lake near the house, kiss of dawn
Pale sunrise, silent call…
Never loved, never gone. My name is nothing but a silent weep for you.
A ghost, not a memory… I cry in the night whispering your name, but you don’t hear me screaming.. 
I wrote this dream for you, this fleeting thought. Remember it, dear, not the hand writing the line, not eyes full of hope, not a tiny tear slowly falling down. 
Remember me…
