Let Me Live Long

The mind binds me in the golden cage of mirage
Running I'm on the sandy shore of timing race
The balmy sea breeze of poems vibrate the thought
Losing I'm slowly all in the gyre of an epidemic pot

Butterflies leaving their embroidered wings
On the back of pegasus crossing dead seas,
On the forlorn pebbles the melancholic rings
Calling me to dive into the forever love myths

All of your in the unexpressed words
Which flying as like the poetic mind birds
On the crystal mirror of thy erotic eyes
Merely I'm reading your tongue-tied sighs

Let me live, let me live long with you out of the pestilence
Only togetherness of love can save from bad side-glance
