Glory, Fall and Hope

All life is splendid now

Your loving heart

Wholly belongs to me

Wrapped in healthy roses

Full hope and trust I have

 

With you, glory is priceless

Your shining eyes fix mine

I feel my heart is taken

Promises made you honour

It’s another glory in paradise

 

In your breath, I live majesty

As your caresses are lovingly

They engulf and engage me

Your tongue is so supple

To yield sweet in my mouth

 

I sing glory after beauty

In your defence, I stand strongly

I fear no wind and no rain

I am ready to walk on eggs

To go through a bush of prickles

 

Now as glory has quenched

The sun sets randomly

The evening becomes windy

At the horizon, I can see you

My voice can no more reach you

 

So I no more dream

My past dreams haunt me

Your words are merciless

Your lyric lies and pierces my heart

But still, I will stay true to myself

 

Another day will come

When flowers will smell

The beauty of the heart to restore hope

And my bleeding heart will heal

My tears will dry and wipe
