Song For The Dead

There’ll be a day when I die, when I close my eyes forever and the memories are locked in my heart.
All the sad songs playing in the background will sing forever goodbye.
The tears falling down won’t be that of happiness and one sad goodbye means eternity.
The words written on the stone will bring the rain.
The road ahead will be empty.
There won’t be anyone but me.
There’ll be a day when I stand alone watching the white clouds fading in the distance.
I’ll look at the faces before my eyes and wonder where those days have gone to because
I can no longer remember them like I used to.
There’ll be a day when my hands grow tired and my feet give out.
That day will be the end of my beating heart when all the love I’ve given come back to me.
The years will stop moving because I’ll be the one with the laughter and tear in my hands.


Hear Nghi Nguyen read one of his poems

Fireflies

From this day onward we’ll always be together.
We’ll watch the sun rise and watch the sun set in the horizon.
Together in those cool spring evenings, hand in hand, we’ll walk down those magical places only the two of us would know.
In the summer evenings, we’ll hold each other and close our eyes.
We’ll watch the stars far above and think about tomorrow as the fireflies spread their wings and fly into that freedom sky.
In the cool autumn afternoons, we’ll walk as the leaves rattle along our side.
We’ll watch the leaves change colors, drip down onto the ground, and slowly fade away into the cool nights.
In the winter, it’ll just be me and you in the warmth of the evening.
We’ll walk on the snow and make imprints that’ll last forever.
Just hold me in those cold winter nights and I’ll be right there to hold you.
We’ll watch the falling snow and sit before the fire as we cherish the moments we’re having together.
In the silent of the night, we’ll always be together forever.
Don’t be sad because I’ll always be here with you.
Don’t be sad because I’ll always be there no matter where you are and I know you’ll love me and be there like I’d be for you.
Through the warm springs and summers, cool autumns, and cold winters, we’ll always be next to each other no matter what happens.
Just close your eyes and dream of tomorrow.
And if one day one of us no longer is here, just once again think of those spring, summer, autumn, and winter nights.
Close your eyes and let the fireflies lead the way for us to once again be with each other.
