The Phantom

Needless of your seduction I have fallen; 
Deep in the ocean of love; I awaken.
Do you know this feeling you have arisen?
Coming forth like a caterpillar from its cocoon

Such, is my sweet sorrow story, 
Told even by the cowry, 
Engendered by love’s mystery; 
Played to the gallery of misery

How I wished this was not a phantom
Already, it would have blossom
Never to be obstructed by the storm
Yes! I would cherish it to doom
