But wait for me,
Keep for me your sweetness.
I will give you too
A rose.
The most romantic lines I've read so far, simple, close, personal n touchy. I like his language style, they offer the connection a lot of poets lack.
It's as if, they both know they have flaws and mistakes. But the poet all asks is for a little faith in their love, that they don't give up or give in... because in the end, all will end well.
I'm interested to know as what inspired him to write this one.
