Midnight Thoughts
When your blue eyes
Looked at my brown eyes,
Like the sky came to kiss the earth
With honour during the morning dew on the snowdrops.
It makes me want to wish I were your perfume,
So you could inhale me every time you took a breath,
I'd be going deep into your heart and bones making you smile,
I'd be touching and clinging to your warm and tender skin, slather slowly, growing deeper and deeper,
I'd be prolonged, so even the next day you'd be able to feel me around you,
Lilies, vanilla and cardamom,
A little bit of whiskey and a little rum.
I envy death, I do,
I envy death who'll get to kiss your face
Beautiful than a summer's day
When the trees are dancing to a music
Privy, the breeze is just bluffing to cool you
And the sun is soaring like a brook during springtime.
I'll miss you forever,
But how lucky I am,
Oh how lucky!
Death will kiss me with the same lips she'll kiss you.
Oh how I love you,
But I still can't tell if I'm in love,
I love you like death loves human beings,
Oh how it yearns, and waits to kiss you when the time comes.
Only death's love is true,
Death never breaks promises,
She comes when she comes,
And she will come for sure.
She loves you even when you don't love her back.
Yes, it's true when you said
“Your smile is going to be the death of me”
With your lips grinned like thousands of ruby roses.
