The words that have dried upon my lips
The dreams hiding behind the veil of my eyes
The lonesome nights or the promises of yore
That could not be reduced to words.
Or all those evenings I had spent without your company
Or the days when I had forgotten even a smile
Would my pen bring the spring on this paper
Or those messages of seasons spent, without you beside me
May I write down the lore of my olden days
Or a new story or the emotions
That takes shelter in my heart
Or something that I had read in the books
May I describe the golden days
Of my newest feelings
Or the rhythm of my heart-beats
Or all that is hidden in my silent words
May I entrance my pen on the brine of my tears
Or shall I write down how lonesome my life‘s without you
Or may I write down my request for a meeting with you
Or a recommendation to forget you.
My heart asks me to send you this message
An emotion-filled letter of love, in your name.
