O’verse of my heart, O’ note of my soul
Convey my message in your humblest words
Say, your lover’s eyes are singing alike
The morning birds

O’ my sacred pen, O’ my blessed scrawl
Pronounce what you feel but hide the truth
Say, your lover lay despaired at
His marvellous youth

O’ couplet of my feelings, O’ tongue of my call
Assert what you deem but conceal the reality
Say, your lover lay tarnished and
Is beyond normality

O’ echo of my state, O’ voice of my world
Declare what you believe but reveal your sincerity
Say, your lover is dying in sweet pain and I am
Here to endorse its authenticity

Heart, O’ heart*
You have made my soul restless and thirsty
Although I adore the sweet pain
And love her generosity

For me
This world of being has turned into bliss
Surely her beautiful and gentle
Words are what I miss

Those
Charming eyes have taken me by my soul
Those gorgeous looks have made
Me out of control

O’ heart
Let her fragrance of love last forever
Let me march towards this
Wonderful endeavour

Maybe
All these are my imaginary affections
They taste like precious honey
From the heavens

O’ heart
Let her sweetness of love remain inside me
This suffering is unique so it
Shall never depart me

Like a hidden
Disease inside lasting without an end
May this continue until my soul
Is finally to ascend

Her last moments
Have set my heartily feelings on fire
Afflictions remain inside me as this
Is the punishment I desire

I am sick and through You
O’ beloved, I am cured

I am so empty and through You
O’ beloved, I am filled

I am lost and through You
O’ beloved, I am found

I am nothing yet through You
O’ beloved, I am something

O' Thou
If you unveil yourself before thee
What a merciful moment
It would be

Oceans would
Flow in your intoxication
And every heart would pour
Like a sea

Thy ecstatic gaze
O' how mystic it would be
O' Thou if you unveil yourself
Before thee

O’ love
You are a
Candle of infinite skies
And you are an excitement
O f    each   l i v i n g
S o u l

Your
Charm turns
Each leaf into a splendid rose
And every petal assembles
Into   a   d r e a m y
P o s e

Now
L e t      t h e  
B l o o d   in my veins
Light up like a
L a m p

O'  l o v e
Unveil  your  m y s t e r y
And pose with your ultimate glory
So that forever possessed
I shall stand

Im ok.
I know you don't  see me,
But im fine.
I know you cant feel me rithe
My ribcage is split down the middle.
By the pain of your absence,
I believe you , you know.
You want me so badly.
But do you?
I just want to rest
In your tender embrace.
All i want
Is to look up and say
I love you

Is that ok?
I like the anticipation
as the phone rings to
the sound of your voice.

The full moon shines
through the canopy,
and she lets out a sigh
as the blue beams of light
wash everything under
the lost midnight sky.

A soft din in the forest
echoes with a chorus
of chirping crickets
and howling locusts
as she stretches out
atop fallen foliage.

Love flows as a river
through souls grown
ever thinner
and cleans us both
with liquid quicksilver,
in the forest tonight.
