Accidentally

We haven't met for a long time 
Accidentally in the road, 
Our hands touched each other.

We exchanged some phrases: 
What brought you, here? 
- In equivocation smile - 

Said: What brought 'you', here? 
- What do you suggest! 
- Let’s take a walk. 

I said: your hands are guilty,
My heart is burning, 
- His lips, never trembled - 

He fondles my cheeks with a smile, 
Handed me to death, and then gone.
