Yet Again, Come

Yet again, come


If you want to see my face 
Create a mirror,
If you want to address my heart
Come back to me with your gifted self,
We know our alchemy can transform
Our emotion into flesh,
Into grief, tears and despair!
My love is left in an oyster 
Waiting to grow into a pearl,

I lack a foot to travel long miles to trace
Your footprints on the desert's sand,
I have no caravan of despair, believe me!
If emptiness once enters into our soul, 
Our existence will depart,
So I urge—
Come, yet again, come!
