Waiting to bloom

I'm like a flower in the Sahara
Hard in harsh conditions
I can't be soft when conditions are so hard
The winds would break me
I keep to myself in dry conditions
I can't open up when conditions are so arid
The sun would evaporate me
Not to speak of the thirsty animals that lurk about looking for any source of water
They would suck me dry and use me to salve their blisters
But I am hard and tightly closed
They won't suspect that I hold water
They won't take advantage of me

I'm not saying I prefer to be hard and closed
If spring where to visit the Sahara,
I would bloom soft open flowers
and allow myself to away with the gentle winds
while I absorbed the suns adoring rays of light

I am waiting for the spring

Naul's Memory of the wind

Upon my first exposure to the video (on Mnet) with out subtitles, I thought: the guy in the uniform was a Japanese invader.  Japan was bombing Korea. ( I thought of this only because i remember Japan having to do something with bombs. Like Hiroshima; only I switched it around and Japan was doing the bombing. The guy and his daughter were playing and the bombs started approaching. He ran with his daughter but the bombs were faster and the guy in the uniform were getting closer. A bomb came really close and the guy used his body to shield his daughter. (Not really plausible seeing as the human body is not that strong.) Then the Japanese soldier was passing by and aw the little girl and had pity on her. then he ended up liking her so he married her. (Its very illogical because he doesn't age. And I doubt the little girl would have willingly agreed to marry someone whose race, nation help bring about her fathers death.) The Soldier is sexy jumping of his horse; maybe the reaso...

This night

To those nights when night sheds light on the cavity within you... When you realize the hours past are hours too far gone to be recollected; never to be caught; there will be no recycling of then for now... When your brain knows which way to go. And serendipitously, so does your heart but the "how?" purrs cooingly masking the crouching tiger hidden by a fog of uncertainties... When tears form and dissipate at equilibrium because you cause tears and cry and accuse you of being the cage that holds you captive and the captor has no right to let saltwater down this face... When you ache at the fact of tomorrow night being one of those nights because yesterday too was one of those nights. I know I make it hard to do but,... Stay bubbly! TYB
