Too Shy To Say It All
Every night,
when I’m lonely,
and deeply troubled,
when love for her,
is paining,
and I’m too shy
to say it all
I invite a cricket
by the window- side.
Then whisper in his ears
my restless desires
and instruct him to go
to sing them in dreams
in the ears
of her hidden
and silent heart
