I would like to gift you the print of my mind!
When you are much old and gray;
Trying to hold the fall, when full of sleep!
...
I twisted a beautiful maple leaf into a cup;
And, collected those morning dews of life!
I conquered those dark & dense forests;
...
It all seems such a long journey with an arduous quest;
I was egocentric, arrogant and that may cost me the best!
I'd been imprudently searching for love all my life;
...
I had known some lasses in my life;
And, few were very close to my soul!
I did folly! Put my heart at stake many times;
...
With you in my audience,
How could I refuse to perform?
If you would clap alone,
...
It sometimes is a droll, atypical how life is;
It’s quaint to remember, words you did not say!
Oh! How I remember the times we did not share;
...
I yearn for an expression of your love for me, but quiet are your lips.
Your lips blush readily with the essence of rubies.
They breathe life, they tremble and quiver,
Yet they are silent - with the words I want to hear.
...
This is a funny tale of the masked self I cannot forget;
Friends were many, but loneliness seemed the target!
I always ignored the harrowing sorrows & rejections;
...
I see you and my heart suffuses with love for you.
The sparkle of love overshadows the deceitful glitter of wealth;
Filling my hungering heart with treasures in every pore.
...
Do not get slashed for love -
For that will always be afar!
Do not get crammed for nothing;
Better be spaced from love, thus! !
