Love Sunwards Poem by Joseph S. Josephides

I look for you into the flowers of the day,
to find you I seek in trails of the night,
I don’t found you in the cards of fortune teller,
they say you don’t exist, you’re just an ether.

Just look, for you my soul became so thirsty;
yet, absent is your spring and your myron
that sweetly smells, ascending to the sky,
they say they saw your shadow flying high.

She, Aphrodite, whispers in my ear:
it’s only aimless that I pester my fate;
your flame starts from the inside of me,

and goes sunwards, where I go to join you,
there; if others laugh at us, ignore them,
they feel delirious due to lack of warmth.
