Eternal Breath

Subtle ineffable feelings of affection and solicitude, Amorous as like swallow's , Ephemeral and unavoidable, Too much like water of deep stream. Throwing myself into love like suicide into river, You entered into my life like a miracle, Like a misty rain that falls softly but floods the river, As fresh as dew, it was first and new. I stand on your grave today heavy at heart, Love is like a tear that rises in the eyes but falls upon the breast, It passed between us like a field of light, Seized me unexpectedly as did your sudden death. White Lillies your favourite I hold in my hands, Can feel your eternal breath inhale the fragrance, Life is unprofitable as a ship without rudder, Prick of a thorn to the body without a soul. Love hung still as crystal on my bed, As fierce as death, I thrive for your affection, It bursts all over my physical being like sweat, Kinship, a feeling of endearment and oneness, Eternal breath !
