Two English Sonnets
When A Man Loves A Woman
When I call you my dear- you come to me,
Each time without delay I feel your love;
I want to hold this love forever see,
Today, tomorrow- sweetheart stars above.
Then, I am lost in labyrinths dark, deep,
And searching darling always angel mine;
I hear you cry, from faraway you weep,
Come love- let me hold you, let us entwine.
Then, I feel you so close- my wish to kiss,
Oh kiss, your red lips sweet and lovely;
Hold you to my heart bleeding, needing bliss,
Meet me under the tree my dear, trust me.
But darling please, do not bring me roses,
To lay upon my tomb- no red posies.
When A Woman Loves A Man
When I hear you- your love calling to me,
I must journey to you without delay;
To feel your sweet embrace, your face to see,
This love that death could not destroy, betray.
Then, I find you- you wait for me always,
So I close my sad eyes and we embrace;
I see your face in mist, in clouds for days,
Asking God why- but it is silent space.
Then, we are kissing deep in my sweet dream,
Love you, love you till my last breath, last day;
Sometimes, I am so sad, so lost, I scream,
I scream for you, for what we had, I pray.
And still I come to you without red roses,
but lay on your tomb those bright red posies.
