A Short Love Poem

15 A Short Love Poem I When I look into your eyes I see two rays A ray of comfort And a ray of good hope II When I think I doubt not That God was wise To create man and woman Let alone to live in a near-far world Where He could watch The virtues He planted in men III I will not leave you Wherever you go When you go Go with your body Your spirit I behold in your honor IV When I die I swear I want them to bury me in three graves In God’s palace On mother earth And in your heart 16 V Te day I first talked to you At 1 am I slept So overwhelmed by the imprints of imagination I saw myself in your long lovely arms Resting VI I remember that other day My sister by my side Snoring I dreamt awake Seeing you – your lips stealing away my saliva I woke up To embrace your gesture I couldn’t see you By the whirlwind of the night You had been blown away To a place Far far away Beckoning You couldn’t see Calling You couldn’t hear For my voice Was like a whisper of conscience There I sat My soul dejected 17 My sister awaken By the sweetness but desperateness of my voice She couldn’t recognize me For I was for you All myself VII When I slept again God commanded That you come Give me a lovely hug That I ever longed That you pose for a sweet kiss That I ever longed That you dress me a wedding gown That I ever longed VIII Alas! My God is good He granted me all this freedom To love Even when not loved To think Even when nobody thinks about me He Is so wise For to us Who love He whispered: ‘They win only those who play’ 18 I played Today We are together In this lovely love nest ...
