When I thought of the moon
‘Moon!’ chuckled I, ‘Yes moon!’
In a midnight Venusian,
I felt a happy total eclipse
Once I sat engaged and healing
I heard an amusing, silent texting
Deep into that darkness tapping,
In a kingdom full of clouds,
As I turned around,
I saw a man,
The man of dreams.
Stood in front of me like a dream,
Lost in his eyes, my heart screamed.
The bliss I feel is not finite!
All that I longed for, was imminent
Our memories are exceptionally countless.
Now unnumbered is just the thing,
It gets me wondering if the twinklings are countless, just like the stars.
Qualms popping up in my mind
In sync with my fast-beating heart.
The hideous love,
Above all others,
Do you accord by how diligent it is?
Does it tear you apart to see the future so far?
As the clock strikes tick-tock,
It’s time for my emotions to unlock.
I could have never loved anyone,
The way I loved you.
Not even myself.
My intense love made me stay.
Through the years,
I lived with your memories
I died too, with them
If I could get paid a dollar for each time I think about you,
I would have now been a multi-millionaire.
Every time, in the flash of your thought,
I dream,
As if we live our desires
You and I,
In a home, safe and secured
No evil around
Was there no way to confess?
A lump in my throat, my words couldn’t come out,
As I gaze upon your earnest eyes,
for we are connected,
I hear thousands of thoughts,
Conveying your untold love.
A virtue of our findings,
a passion through the universe,
I share with you my heart.
For we are bound to never disappear to never be deceived
into the future,
Let’s live in the present,
To the fullest.
You carry my love,
You leave my pulse,
You lift my spirit,
For always through darkness
bound together, I come closer
Our hearts face each other.
I bequeath to you a hug
we melt into one soul.
We become entangled.
Tears rolling from my eyes,
I could hear your heartbeat,
And I found my home.
As I pledge through space and time,
You are my only love for a lifetime.
