**my Letters No 2

Rating: 2.9


With kisses with tears with smiles with love
My love had once in the unknown discovered
From heap of ashes with mantras written
Worn on the neck and up on the arm
Coated in gold in silver wrapped
Symbol of love against the evil eye
Held close to the heart worshiped with forehead
Between the earth and head words drunk to the mad
In love giving lives touching the eyes
Of the beloved for the days dreams not yet seen
Above the doors in entrance in chants read
In the temple sung scratched on the skin
To remain eternal in the bosoms
On sweet tongues not scribbles
Meaning deep my letters unknown
My loves imaginary my heart has wings
My eyes see strange things

In love my heart dear enough ye spoke
Unreason thy argument but will thy hand
On the curve of the back of the beauty so slim
Hold closer to thy chest for the kiss on her cheek
Much belied is thy agony alas the day when my love
Youth had shown the beauty of the skin like satin
Yet thou speak of letters and temples
Waiting for the day when smoke that shapes
In burning desire ye see thy love in ethereal
Leave the company of the love yet ye
From prison to prison the chains thou wear
Still sings music of love in the tunes divine

In the palaces where curtains made from pearls Shone with light white like milk Humbled sun read the lines Written by the depths of the dark Night less night rusted away Into the fume less fire The wind hid in the petals In the temple of love With ashes of the evenings And silence of ages On the stones carved With chisels and hammer With songs and tunes The grand procession with Thousand elephants A hundred trumpets And ten conchs blew in the air And when the princess on her knees Hair open flying west Frantically dug with her nails On the earth wet with her tears She found in silver wrapped Letters, letters by the beloved Addressed Letters to the unknown

In love giving lives touching the eyes Of the beloved for the days dreams not yet seen Above the doors in entrance in chants read In the temple sung scratched on the skin To remain eternal in the bosoms On sweet tongues not scribbles Meaning deep my letters unknown My loves imaginary my heart has wings My eyes see strange things Excellent, is the right word.
