Waiting for arrival

Time flows by
as I wait for you
to arrive at last.

Everything is ready for you.
I exactly know
what to say,
what to do,
how to act
and how to react.
I got presents for you,
the right flowers,
some nice poemsthat will please you for sure.

I just don't know
when you'll arrive.
And so I can't do anything
but keep on waiting.

I hope I'll be able to recognize you
in the end
because I do not really know
who you are.

Little Bird

There's a bird
in the sky
looking down
on the earth
to me.
What does he see?
*
Can he see
all my sorrows?
Can he see
all my dreams?
an if he can,
does he care?
*
Can he see
that I want
to be free
like he is?
But I
cannot fly.
*
 

There's a bird
in the sky
flying far,
far away.
I must stay
on the earth.
*
But my mind
flies away
with the bird
through the sky.
I'll be free
for a while.
