Emotionless stood trees as if awaiting some hope,
Drained were the essence from their barks stretched,
In seasons passed and creatures cracked, mercilessly.
Disappointments turned to anger and sadness and froze,
Mind and passions like an ocean under iceberg spread.
Calmness came when present forgotten and deeper crept,
Light from some unknown lucky stars that brought faces,
To mind’s eyes and spread joy that in turn rejuvenated,
A man’s spiritual realms and material being with images,
Ah’ wished and wished they were yours and I was blessed.
What expression man can make for the world to understand?
The fallen sadness meant a learning and an understanding,
That you are the fulfillment of a journey of a lifetime traveled,
The pain, the waiting, the yearning all bound to a reality,
And that reality unfolded when sadness fell with just your smile.
Then the man sat at shore with a heart loaded with dreams,
Of past and faces passed with promises came and left sadness,
One by one I made them into small sail boats with faces filled,
And let them sail into the unknown winds from darker clouds,
What befell them I can’t care as the present and the future is you.
The fallen emotions with hopes and new imaginations raised,
Oh,’ the spiritual energies diluted into the blood and filled,
Every bit of me who grown young though timed aged my time.
As the anthem of mine, these days rang bells and sang,
Unrhymed verses that made you the symbol of true happiness.
Hours of days, days of weeks with her in mind spent,
That passion though not clearly known funneled the essence,
Of the fuel that made a nobody into a lover, one with nothing,
A caring man, a better lover, through verses to the world express,
His love and how wonderful the one who feels his love.
Then there is the reality, the monster that forces hide ‘n’ seek,
Where expressions get twisted beyond recognition and fear,
Oh,’ fear that dabbles hearts into dreamless, sleepless, seclusion.
A fire that empties expressions in that fear and returns nothing.
Ah’ I only take a smile in return that fuels my love for you.
The smile through my soul burns every second of the day.
