when all turns infallible
and truth becomes truth,
and the shadow fade away
and darkness is eclipse by the
shine of glamour
Deep into our hearts,
we shall look inside
and see the sunlight
of a gift the dynasty
of friendship has brought us
and with a smile
that luminates events
we shall elucidate
a remarkable omen,
most honourable
Even when the night is due
I promise you, my love
we shall be cuddled
and clothed by
the cloak of dusk,
as we frolick far from
the world,
like star and pixie dust,
with a mighty wish
that our hands touch
and by the gracious spell
in your eyes,
I may defy gravity
that my strength shall
overthrow friction;
If my heart could leap,
it would fly,
resting on the bed of the winds,
lulled by passion
and by passion also
made tame
and it frolicks joyously
by the enrichment of emotion,
the petals of my soul
are spread wide,
peacock petals,
yet only you are endowed
for my nectar
which beseeches your name
and again it frolicks joyously
in the garden of my dreams,
my life inhales freedom
and there's no going back
the smile,
the laugh have extricated
me from the cocoon of loneliness
and now I am free
as a butterfly to swing
with you in the prairie of bliss.
