I Wish You Could Feel.... Poem by Eva Clara Harahap

I wish you could feel....
I bring myself as I am to heal...
I wish you can see...
Doubt can be as wide as the sea....

I invite your heart to feel...
But why you always rely on authority...
I wish you could listen...
The sweetest breath of the forests...
The crying sound of the river Jordan...
And the hills roll for the frighten shepherd..

I bring you a cup of thoughts...
With herbs and dew...
That I gather myself that instant...
But why you just taste the bitterness of the herbs...
Without first enjoying the fragrance...
And the soft touch of the dew at your lips...

I talked to you with an open heart...
But all you do is to repeat...
Twisted everything up to your beat...
So you can free yourself from the heat...

I wish you could feel...
I will look after you...
Like my close hands..
Guard the lines of my palms..
For this is Love, Not lust...

I wish you could feel...
For all the love that I feel...
Like the affair of the clouds up in the hill...
With all the trees and its charming will...

My dear friend at heart...
I am not here to ask you to change...
Just try to feel with your heart..
That all is here for you to love..
And all is here to love you...
Just when you are ready to feel...
