Rami

The lovechild of a god and a poet Your eyes in that photo They spoke of kindness and innocence The heart on your neck, I took as a sign Only the heart became a diamond, pointed Your eyes grew fierce, begging for a challenge What do you need — Patience? My surest weakness This you ask from me again and again Stillness? A most unnatural way For a dogged scientist If I could learn your tongue Hear your thoughts, hold your feelings Speak my devotion to you the way I know how I yearn for our souls to meet Wouldn’t then everything be alright? Red hair and dark eyes The way you rest your head on me I do love you so Yet your teeth are sharp and draw blood I pray to discover the lessons you teach
