A tsunami occurs in my heart.
But it dies down in my heart,
Because there is someone behind your happiness.
Whenever I see you singing a song,
I listen carefully and hear no wrong.
The Atlantic Wind blocks my ear,
You are singing for him which I can't bear.
Whenever I see you blowing a flying kiss,
In my mind an earthquake occurs.
It stops when I remember,
Your kisses are for the other.
Love is love’s reward,
For loving you I should get that award.
In the love cyclone everything is messed up,
In loving you should I give up?

I really like this last line - "In loving you should I give up?" Giving up is to admit failure - and I don't think I'm ready yet. Thank you for the entry!

Heh. This piece is really a tribute to how the english language can be used to craft and create expression rather than just straight-forward communication. Your word-images are elementary and convey the intended pictures with a basic ease. The readers come away with an image of a man (?) who stands too close to a love transpiring between two others. How interesting, then, to consider this often overlooked caustic side-effect: jealousy. Of course, the most interesting part of this piece isn't the discussion of Shakespear's old green-eyed, but rather that you have managed to show a bit of the hero in the subject character (I assume yourself) without every debasing or discrediting love's rival. I find that to be especially well done and highly a-typical.
Thank you for this entry.

This is my personal opinion; most of the time your love poems take an exceptional height (I found it in your book Songs of Silence too). Now this piece also flowed very well, diction and way of presenting were strong. I liked it.

"Whenever I see your happy face,
A tsunami occurs in my heart.
But it dies down in my heart,
Cause there is someone behind your happiness."
These lines are very very expressive....an entire story is told with these few lines. The words tsunami, earthquake, Atlantic wind are very beautifully used.
