When my rebellious heart meets with your dreamy eyes
I surrender bare as the rain.
When my insomniac eyes meet with your portrait
I know distances become mere allegorical phenomenon
buried
under my feet.
But
when my greedy ears meet with your tender silence
I know
desires rise and spread
on my dreamy bed
sometimes
like a contagious virus
sometimes
like a flood without end.
