"Of Wishes and Dreams"


Within those long nights when everything seems to go wrong
I had these strange dreams that keep recurring
That I hid behind this certain thicket fence
And see the world through different eyes
It rushes and left me alone silently watching

I need someone to help me figure these dreams out
What they mean when they kept rushing right through my life
And let me playing with my tears before they dried in the sun

It seems like years
I don’t think you will ever be coming back for more
At first I was afraid to set you free
Even when I know that’s the way things should be

Now let me kiss away the pain of our old memories
And stop trying to make sense of everything
Just look beyond ourselves so we can survive
Through the dreams and reminiscences

If you still have doubt, let the night decide
Because I still have this one wish,
To kiss you tenderly to sleep

"The Picnic Picture"


There was an old photograph on your refrigerator pinned with a magnetic pineapple
Its colors turned to yellowish, a sure sign of years it has gone through
When I first looked at it, I thought it was the picture of Jesus and His disciples having a picnic under a big leafy tree
Because everyone in it had thick shaggy beards long wavy hair and wore some kind of long dresses
Like the robes they used to wear back then in the early years of Our Lord

But when I first saw the photograph, it was not because of what it depicted
It was because I had to divert my gaze from the kitchen window overlooking your backyard
Since I saw you getting steamy with another guy, not far from the pool we once made love inside

I know you’re no longer mine, but hey
Was it wrong if I feel jealousy looking at that scene with my very own eyes?
