BE MINE
The time says dawn,
My heart sees dusk.
This isn't stupid in love!
Years had held my breaths
Now they call on you.
My eyes bleeds your name
My sleep worships you.
Please be my king
And enslave my heart
You may rule my world
There is no need to ask.
Joy has set the throne
Just come take your seat.
Like the waves of the ocean
Feelings perturbed my spirit.
It's decades already,
Let my soul walk away
From the circle you built
Well crafted on your mind.
Hey, continue to swim
In the waters of illusion.
I've found a dazzling maiden
On my last visit to heaven
My spirit melts at the glance of her.
Voice of her captivated my soul
Though, yet to gift diamonds of admiration.
Who is she that steals my crown?
Let the heavens be ablaze.
In your comfort I remain,
To fill your bliss and feel your pain.
Woo be told, I'll die for you.
Close your balls, I'll be your sight
All my life would watch your steps
While my tongue would serve your feast.
All my channels are routes to you
Walk this way to Canaan land,
Drink my milk with honey's divine
Watch the feet i long to kiss.
Lead these thoughts with sweets from you.
Wake up from your deep slumber
That dream would never last till morning.
Listen to the beats of my steps,
They're on a journey to foreverland.
I've sailed through the Pacific ocean
To gift the zeal of affections.
In me is an engraved icon of her
Vastly built like the ancient pyramids.
Her smile alone wears off my stress,
Though waiting to secure a moment.
Dreams brought the image of her,
My shadow featured like her figure,
Isn't this a divine merriment?
Now my lust knows sorrows,
My lingering pain could swallow.
These beats hits my angers
They bid my ears to follow.
I wail to see you quiver
Down the feet of another
Welcome my sleep, meet slumber!
Till he calls my number.
I would be his saviour
When he asks my favour.
Sail well till forever, My dearest.
I blessed grace your sailor.
While I lay with silence at the shores of never.
Through my voyage in this city
All I saw was clothing of pity.
Rivers of feelings
Flowing towards my rock.
But I chose not to drink from your river.
Though your voice constipated my bowels
As your wholeness remained in me,
Your wholeness made me shiver.
But the soul mate in my dream
Has driven away the soul in me.
The one I long to kiss
Has ruined my joy within the tunnel.
So, let's both lay in silence at the shores of never.
