Chinese Dream

Chinese dream Her Oriental eyes His Spanish smile, She is forbidden fruit A language in between He cannot express how he feels He cannot determine what she is made of, She is like a mirage, created from Pearl, diamond and the purest gold Chinese dream His heart is aching Her eyes speaks another language also His head and heart commence battle ‘You are meant to be together.’ Out of his control ‘She is the One.’ He wants control over the situation Chinese dream He doesn’t know a word of Chinese His Spanish tongue, not so diverse Her language alien to him Helpless Powerless She walked by, her scent drifted She saw him and felt it too Chinese dream What to do? What to say? She smiled and shyly kept on His camera in his hand He automatically raised his hands Surprisingly shaky, he snapped her shot She disappeared into the town crowd Her garments glisten, she is his Chinese dream His feet run on their accord, yet He finds her easily, because Her exquisiteness is unique Her red dress so elegant Her eyes so profound, he’s by her side His hand reaches hers, she gasps, turns Spanish tongue is stuck for words Chinese dream
