Love Requited

Do the birds care to hear my whistle?

Would they only be interested in my tunes if I were to throw bread?

There is a sweet and salty taste I offer that does not fall from my hand

Come closer to my heart

Can you hear it roaring?

Words I utter cannot give each beat justice

Don’t bother bending your mind

Whisk your spirit into my soul

What use of intellect when your eyes throw all reason out the window

Nothing left for my lips to say

Only to press them against yours

To feel the light of a thousand suns

To hear the waves in moonlight

To be one with the universe

To think I had done something right in this life or the last

To wake in this dream with you
