Bottomless

Listen, my heart calling out your name.

My longing become an abyss 

Vast and wide

Drinking that elixir 

has made me drunk

The night is long

and the day longer

When will this loneliness end? 

Thoughts of Nanushka

We do not have to rely

upon memories

to recapture the spirit

of those we have loved and lost -

they live within our souls

in some perfect sanctuary

which even death

cannot destroy -

Falling in Love

FALLING in love 
is a recurring illness -
the heady nights
and dizzy days,
the raging fever
and the pain -
recovery - 
slow convalescence
with the uncertainty
of where and when or if
this wondrous sickness
will strike again . .

A Stranger

Only You

Only you
I choose among the entire world.
Is it fair of you
letting me be unhappy?

My heart is a pen in your hand.
It is all up to you
to write me happy or sad.

I see only what you reveal
and live as you say.
All my feelings have the color
you desire to paint.

From the beginning to the end,
no one but you.

Please make my future
better than the past.

When you hide I change
to a Godless person,
and when you appear,
I find my faith.

Don’t expect to find
any more in me
than what you give.

Don’t search for
hidden pockets because
I’ve shown you that
all I have is all you gave.

Melody To My Song

I sought out for words 

to describe the feeling 

this song gave me,

but my words just scattered 

the sentence doesn't become a sentence, only

words that lies here and there. 

Eagerly waiting for me

to put it in the correct way 

so it will become a full sentence.

I forgot how to tune in with my heart,

I forgot the melody it sings to me

Oh, where are the notes,

the sheet of notes to my song.

How can I even forget such important thing! 

- Amaia Jenin

Sweet Melody

Because of you I had tasted euphoria,
in my tears there were happiness.
You bring so much joy into my life
and to loose you I have known bitterness.

Sweet surrender,
you have come to release me from
my haunting past.
Every moment I think of you,
I savor it in my heart.

Your beauty are as the bright sun
blinding my eyes.
To know you is to know love
and love is a desire
which I secretly keep inside my soul.

I promise myself
to never let those sweet memories
to fade away;
it’s something to remember
and dream of every single day.

Fire burns down the walls
I build to keep me safe.
Strange is love that makes me sway.
Just with a wiff of air
my kisses are blowing away
with the wind that convey my vows.

I will love you until my last breath,
when time cease to exist
and the world stop moving.
My vow is beyond eternity
far greater than the universe;
because you have brought heaven to my home.

Let’s mend together and be inseparable -
like the air we are breathing.
Death is nothing to fear,
because we are as one in this lifetime.
Let joy be our song -
and love our melody.

Love Has Brought Me Home

I fell apart to be mend a new
Look deep within the heart, raging war subside
Love is the last call

I call love by its name
Releasing me from the aching pain
Wind chime sings
By a gentle push of the summer breeze, mindful
All doors are open for me to get through -
One into the heart another into the soul.

Within a beating heart, truth recall
Nothing can bend or break the divine glory of a soul
Beyond the universe
Millions of stars are shining
One shines for all, all shines for one,
Love has guide me home to where I truly belong

Look deep within the heart, raging war subside
Love has finally brought me home.
