The Crushed Leaf Underneath Your Boot

My empty dream in vibrant spring To make true with your loving grace; I awaited an era till you bring Those cheerful memories of solace. Hand-in-hand to walk life together; To withstand miseries what may come; Not to turn one's back in bad weather; Have you kept those promises you've done. Silent years passed day by day; Silver shone in your eyes and heart; Promises sailed off at a far away bay; Your wandered life was a game of dart. Nectar from heaven filled tinkly glasses; Silver rolled on spinning Roulette wheels; passion flirted with angelic embraces; I was a null coin among your deals. I am waiting till you're back home; To replenish your hope along anew route; My heart will welcome you are as same; Please,pick the leaf underneath your boot. Swarnapali Liyanage 29/006/2011
