Ayoosh

I never knew am a human
until you came to me, O 
woman.

back then am wasn't so sure
yet though I was assured..

I awake every night all alone
and dream myself so loned..

asking;
why was my life off show,
why me so shut...

life came with a show
and brought you to my 
clutch...

and when I begun to strive
it drives me from the heart 
to dive..

should I step to you..

...but.. 

you step your feet to my jaw
and set me free from a blow.

what a good morning,
worth a good beginning..

"I begot a loved 
and begun to love"

and reside at ease to insure
my mind for a peace, 
assured!!

I look through the window to 
see what's at my door,

Oh! Ayes, it was you, 
knocking at my door.
