THE DEPTH OF HEART

They do not want know, the depth of heart

Apathetic their eyes to see your teardrops –

The world has its own precedence, nobody

Has time to think for other, bitter truth, we

Have no other way to accept the reality of

Relation, the morning has to recognize the

Difference between evening and existed sky,

Dreams, imagination, seasons, wrinkles of

Face, lines of palm, kisses, affection of body

The allocation of pleasure, pledges to die -

Together, memories couldn’t changed the

Isolation of life, in the twilight I found,

Mirror is asking me the cause of loneliness!

How to explain the realism of life, it looked

Me only external, reflected the ray of

Multicolored smile, inner gloom remained

Untouched, unknown, the flowers gradually

Replaced by pod of seeds, fruit has to split

Shadow chases the image at once sun raises!

The rules of nature doesn’t accept the

Amendment, your efforts couldn’t avoid the

Sun to sinking into the depth of sea, we have

To wait for next day to see the aesthetic sky

Night’s darkness, dissolving moon s beauty

Nocturnal blooms fragrance, your presence in

The life, all together do not allow me to cry

I just desire to love you more than before

The feeling of contentment says it’s too short

Life, heart wants to move toward the -

Mysterious planets, galaxies, unfamiliar faces

A voyage, an adventure, a passion to search the

Meaning of life, discovery for new horizons - - - -

TRUE LOVE

Hiccup in life is not always a sign of

Remember, time fills all the vacant space

I’m before you tonight, everything is

Attractive, tomorrow wouldn’t be the

Similar flavor, this deepen love, the eyes

Full of obsession, a mania to do anything

For me couldn’t you sustained in the life

I think, sweetheart, this lunatic outlook

Might be brought the startling changes

I love you beyond the limit, its true dear

In the ovary of future what’s breathing, not

Simple to forecast, on the brittle trail of

Love, walking is not so easy, in every step

The Uncertainty would be challenge by us,

Did you decide to be remain forever near

To heart, soul everlasting, if not, please leave

This path of flames, tempting to pain in

The tranquil life would be finished the

Interest to survival, once you began the

Journey in this unknown destination, return

Would be difficult, a shadow of broken

Emotion will chase entire life, true love is

Nothing then the walking on frozen thin

Layer of a lake water, little lack of care

Might be demolished the temple of love

The ruined heart would be alone in the

Evening of life, even shadow will refuse to

Recognize your existence, beloved rethink

Once before going ahead, if tender dream –

To be broken, regrets will be momentary!

In morning dewdrops, tender flowers, color

Of sky, everything will be nearer to the heart.

FIRST RAIN

Spiral staircase, adorned floral designed

Edge, bit by bit your entrance in my life

As moonlight goes on the roof, silent –

Breathless shadow waits, for your

Dominance, sudden embracing to chest

This unpredicted rain, creates the inner

Wet, I have nothing to control the

Oceanic waves, higher tides determined

Celestial influence are untamed, lavas

Flow, persona becomes pumice stone!

The vertical smokes goes to sky, moon

Hovers on the auburn vapors, unwanted

Captivity brings the pleasure unlimited,

The sky and earth meet through a channel

Of mist, we haven’t prudence until dawn

Everywhere was fog, fervent particles

Dropped on by one whole night, I tried to

Collect your adoration into the heart

As saturated my soul, you poured all the

Devotion by unfolded passion, before

The sun rise, crater slept for next upsurge

Our love relaxed, on the new-fangled

Hanging island, dreams sprouted later, in

The first rain, rainbow touched the

Innovative landscape, rare flowers bloom!

We left over, their foot prints forever

As we walked on the blazing trails, now

A river flows on that surface, the cold rocks

Of bank often repeats the saga of our

Eternal love, evergreen that land, enjoys

Whole the year endless spring season

Spell of rain sometimes sings the duet song!
