along this bumpy road
a love song
the chorus reminds me
i am traveling alone

Bitter stories tanka
days crawl away
good times and bad times
wrinkle on my skin
a story too much to tell
too sore to recall

I stand in the sun
quenching my thirst for light

but it's you

Naked swim tanka
quenching her thirst
she consumed by the vanishing taste
of naked view
the scarlet, looms unnoticed
counting the ticks of her heart

Zhivago's tanka
why does
tearing apart the wooden fence
deserve sour stares
as cold as a heap of snow
in relentless season?

as cold as a heap of snow

The altered version as follows;
for a humble heat
a firewood ripped off
of the fence
but your sour stares
even colder than the snow
