"WHEN ONE DOOR CLOSES, ANOTHER OPENS, BUT WE OFTEN LOOK SO LONG AND SO REGRETFULLY UPON THE CLOSED DOOR THAT WE DO NOT SEE THE ONE THAT HAS OPENED FOR US."

Past Life and the Hopes

I thought my dream would never comes
Memory is a stranger
History is a nightmare
And dream is a mystery
Day by day, you make me suffer
Come on, open me your door
I just want your loving
If you cannot give me more
I can see you standing there
You know you're worth the try
Let me guide you in my spaceship
And I know one day it's to go
Why don't you give me one more chance?
To fall in love with you
All you know is what you see
No more reasons you want to hear
And I'm surely it will never come true
The moon comes at night
I searched the sky from where I stand
Look for the highest place in space to calm
But I saw the stars stood up in the sky
And I saw you crying
How can you ever be good 
when you don't see a reason?
How can you trust an old friend
when you don't even care for one?
All that's left is just to say a last good bye.

A Man Young and Old - Part II (Human Dignity)

Like the moon her kindness is,
If kindness I may call
What has no comprehension in't,
But is the same for all
As though my sorrow were a scene
Upon a painted wall.
So like a bit of stone I lie
Under a broken tree.
I could recover if I shrieked
My heart's agony
To passing bird, but I am dumb
From human dignity.

A Man Young and Old - Part I (First Love)

Though nurtured like the sailing moon
In beauty's murderous brood,
She walked awhile and blushed awhile
And on my pathway stood
Until I thought her body bore
A heart of flesh and blood.
But since I laid a hand thereon
And found a heart of stone
I have attempted many things
And not a thing is done,
For every hand is lunatic
That travels on the moon.
She smiled and that transfigured me
And left me but a lout,
Maundering here, and maundering there,
Emptier of thought
Than the heavenly circuit of its stars
When the moon sails out.

Bird Or Beast?

Did any bird come flying
After the prisoners,
When the door was shut against them
And they sat down to grieve?

I think not Prisoner's peacock
Splendid to see,
And I think not Police's eagle;
But a dove may be.

Did any beast come pushing
Through the thorny hedge
Into the thorny thistly world,
Out from Eden's edge?

I think not a lion,
Though his strength is such;
But an innocent loving lamb
May have done as much.

If the dove preached from her bough
and the lamb from his sod,
The lamb and dove
Were preachers sent from Allah.
