Letters To My Love
LETTERS TO MY LOVE
I
My love; it has been a long time since I wrote you a letter
Flowing from the rivers of my heart
A poem of your unfailing love which has halted my soul
And has captured my ambiance to never depart.
My love; it been a while since
I sang you your favorite song
The one you delight to listen from my tongue
Though I feel a little tense
I can do nothing except to sing for long.
My love; you have clothed me with your web
The one that has entangled me since I was young
Though I sometimes feel disturb
All I see myself do is to sing our love song.
My heart beat at the reading of your letter
And the words bring joy and peace driving me only to mutter
It tells me of your unmoving eyes
That watches over me with so much intense cries
And so to reply your letters I write this poem declaring
You are my love, my song, my joy in night’s bearing
And I tremble at your words in glaring.
II
My love I just wrote you a letter
To tell you of the retentions I have of you
To bring back the days of our passion
And the whispers of your love in my ears.
My love I simply cannot let loose of my memories
To free it from this slavery by your love
And so to set my soul free,
I want to share our long kept secret with the world
That though they do not believe in love,
There is a boundless love that awaits mankind
Only if they are willing to loose themselves
To have an intimacy like ours.
My love I am poised to proclaim the facet of our love to the world
Of how you wake me up every night to have our passionate communication
To reveal to me the secret of your plans
To unveil the activities of the coming day.
So nothing can outsmart me unawares
So I can think of nothing but the memories of our love making.
III
My love, I just wrote you a letter
To remind you of the misery I feel
Anytime I sense a distance between us
Knowing your letters are what keep me on the path of life
I cannot live without your love
Neither can I sleep without reading your letters again and again.
My love I have being thinking and asking
What can separate me from your love?
Shall persecution, nakedness or the sword?
Because even in my death our love will grow stronger
In deed nothing can separate me from your eternal love.
My love I write this letter to tell you
Of my true feelings for you.
To recount the days when you, a crowned prince set your gaze at me
Just a maiden on a pilgrimage
In your letter you said it was an awesome sight.
And so you have left me to wonder, my love
If this love I feel is real or just a dream
And if it real, then am speechless
But if it a dream,
Let me have my eternal rest in this dream of love.
