She Moves In Silence
She moves in silence like a jasmine breeze
through a moonlit garden walk
She doesn't journey like a star
with a lustrous shine in a celestial sky
But just like a little rock
a little limestone rock
that crisscrossed muddy rivers
and made it to safe shores
A lifeless rock so fragile
not sturdy yet still strong
Her beauty doesn't shake fresh dewdrops
from water-lily leaves
Nor does it make blushed plum buds fall
from murky forest trees
But when his mind is filled with thoughts of her
Oh how She gets him on his knees
She lurks deeply in his soul
Her eyes,a golden tint of fireflies
glowing into his own
She kills him with her smile
like hundred nights before
and thousands moments gone
Then walks away from the forbidden door
Her fingerprints She leaves
over his lips,across his cheeks
and all her perfume in his sleep
So every woman that ever goes to him
to tease him with her kiss would know
It would never be,no it wouldn't be
His arms belong to their once upon a memory
She is the owner of his heart
and would never set it free
She,She is still his sweetest dream
His saddest song,an empty verse
The sound of a child's laughter
and chapters in between
She is still the wild street flower
The promise made to last
The lady of his life
The woman from the past
