A fine smell, sweet scent of virtue Awoke me. Memories were rather blurred Dizzied by the thin air, We were simply talking, Laying still. The night swallowed her slender silhouette, Took her in a fleeting moment. Leaving no trace of her existence, My tongue cut out, we did not speak again. A vain hope, sat waiting, For her return. ...

The River Open your eyes, Before you dive, Catch your breath, Before you dive, Clear your thoughts, Before you dive. What were your final memories, As the river took no prisoners. An intimate night, A Childhood sight, Was there light, Up above. Did you ever make it? To the other side, And laugh off Your bravery As your friend waited To share the moment.
