If I must trust in my own
heart, that wavers and twitches
with a quaint eminence now, dearly,
a reach for your hands,
I must say,
I am happily conquered
by your luminance
If I must walk in these
steps of joy
and dance to this
fairy rhythm my soul unleashes,
I must say,
your name is the
signature of my heart
If everything I touch
has turned to gold,
and the world bloomed
like a spring of happiness,
I must say,
your kiss,
your touch has
been my breathe of life
so much so
that I am mesmerized
and merrily captivated
by the magic of your eyes,
so has my breath been stolen
but I do not gasp,
in a wisdom so passionate,
that my heart sleeps evidently
because it found you.
