Poems By Dai

New as the moon

New as the moon:

old as the sky

rage that is red

“lively” she said

never again

just turn your back

go on

step step…

come back.

always the same

never apart

except..maybe…

at heart

never is true

even when they say to you

that it aint

i have no idea

what was said

but oh, how i remeber

those steps

those lines

the pavement

so..

gray

so dark

matter of fact

lively she said

lovely he meant

liar

she thought

poof…he was gone.

stepping away

that was his scene

all that he knew

all she had seen.

Yes yes it’s true

love was anew

in those first few hours…

it was as new as the moon.

But the moon always comes back..

to that same lonely spot.

 

11:11

The clock seems to stop

Slowly the ticks lag behind tocks

Slowly they pull each other apart.

I then notice this

as I am taking my route

to see you now.

The clock follows me

And as soon as I knock on that door,

Loose all my hair

And jump up those stairs

Into your arms

Always waiting there.

You kiss me some time

On my forehead

My lips

Telling me

Those sweet sweet little things

And then suddenly I hear that innocent sound

Of the time coming round

I hear that clock ticking

Still pretty slow

But not as slow as a moment ago

It’s getting faster I fear

Day’s drawing near

And sadly I look up into the blue of your eyes

And I think about how I like

When days turn into night

And night into day

By the pier how we sway

And you look at me

Holding me tight through the breeze

And we make a face

And sigh into space

This is it

Love how it feels

And suddenly

I

Can’t wait to see

What tomorrow yields…

Oh but sad sad day

When the night has turned into day

And that clock starts ticking

The tick after tock

The same pattern I know

And I am forced to leave

That lingering kiss

Apologizing

For the stupid time

I gotta hurry

Oh my

I’m gonna be late

I backup the car

Slide into drive

And suddenly

It’s 11:11 o’clock

I smile up at you

You already know

We make that wish

That one day soon

I don’t have to leave.

 

You can call IT love

There they sat

In that lovely spot

Different in mind-

In eyes and corrupt

But oh so sweet

Did it seem to me

That just when it turned dark

The nightmares had stopped

He looked up:

From that spot

Took my hand

And then stopped.

Took a look inside

My eyes thus my soul

My lips

Oh amor.

I never ever thought

Of such a lovely spot

In which you would be

There sitting with me

Looking out

And talking ‘bout nothing

And I can’t help but think

Deep deep inside

That when we both were young

Listening and looking through the cracks

Of those adult conversations

This was what was always brought up.

I can’t help but think

It’s true

Not so mean

That’s how they described

What happened tonight

Our hands interwoven

Reminds me of how

I always looked for the signs

In, up and about

Where ever I was                                

Always exploring

The forest so large

Of something yet to be found.

And I stand here tonight

My hand woven through yours pretty tight

Looking up at the scene

Of what we must be.

 

Leaning On the Very Earth [L.O.V.E]

 

This is a story of fruit

A story of sweetness

A story of truth.

And just for the record

I wanted to say

That life isn’t simple

And there are things that will happen

and some will go through

but that lovely night,

I didn’t expect you.

It started out like any day

With one thought going round and round in my head

I was anxious, but sound

Thinking about how lonely I was found

 Then a thought came to mind

And it was all you

You were all that I saw

And all that I knew

So I look at the dartboard

I throw my own dice

I’m making the move

And closing my eyes

I hope for the best

And let the dice fall

I’m making this move

I’m giving my all.

I hoped it was good

I had my heart at my throat

And even when I faltered

You never let go.

That was when I knew

You were true

As True to your heart

As I was to you.

I knew this the instant

You knew me so well

That you never resisted

The wish I threw down into the Well

Kiss me in the rain

I said

By the train

Is ok

Round the corner

Don’t get caught

We’re insane…

Was just a thought

That came to my mind

On that wonderful lovely night

 

True Loves First Kiss

 

A girl and a boy
Lovely this plot
In the beginning were
Swinging in thought.
He and Her were never alike
Always fighting, and shouting
Yet it was evident and true
That they were the bestest friends that
they knew
some even thought
they were a little more than that
and then the feelings had left
as their first fight of the day
was about to take place
Compromised they were
Him to Australia and
the bad boy to her
but together they always remained
the nights specially held
that feeling so well
laughter was shared
Flirting went on
but both knew the game
and nothing was done.
Although she would think

Of what might’ve been
That’s wrong
She would say
To wrong to write down
But when just that same day
She had found
That inside her
A part wanted him
She did not know why
And she did not profess
Oh the feeling so rare
The thoughts were despair
She wanted to stop
But where to..could she run?
There was no place to go
Her heart was her soul
And many once said
Follow it whole
So she walked to his place
Knocked on the door
Let down her hair
And prepared
To tell him the truth
When He came out and she knew…
“I’ve been missing you”
She practically yelled
And he had to stand back
But another instant passed
She was in his arms.
It is what it is
And when their gazes met
Her lips were on his
It was raining that day
Pouring instead
The sunshine’s not out
And it’s not making my day
But as soon as she felt
The warmth he emits
She knew this was finally
True loves first kiss.

 

Dai

Dai is the name
18 years is my age

and yeah, sometimes i wish i was taller
but at least i’m not gettting smaller

psychology is my obsession
math takes me all different directions
not very worthy is my observation
J is my boyfriend…

oh but don’t have a cow.
he’s a cool kid, that’s for sure
just needs a few lessons is all
needs to get his time right
needs a little guiding light
french is my language of choice
crazy, is all that noise.
Peace and love all the way
did you hug your tree today?
hype
type
it’s all the same
view it through opposite names.
College years are here
and best friends, aren’t so near.
we call but it’s not the same
it’s okay cuz nothings like summer oh-eight.
hicking and camping i’d like to do
but fashon and swiming is more my groove.
I’d love to be kissed in the rain
But no guy is ever as insane
So
Dai is the name
Remember the face
A single ace
since i play No games.
