You don't see me.
I don't say much.
But just trust me.
I'm still watching.

The silence surrounds
Laying on the green grass
Staring at the setting sun, it's a reddish round
A Twite's trill treads all around

A benign breeze breaks,
helping the wafting wherry
The perpetual pier
gathered a gleeful gaggle

The lulling lake
a serene sight
beauty bound
A dream domicile

If words were water
I’d never drown
but float wave on
wave of them
over stormy seas
to  you my only
certain landfall.

There to cascade
into a pure  haven
of heart’s desire,
safe under shade
of your protecting
wings my words
will flow to tell
the endless tides
of ageless time
I am in love
with you as
long as our
hearts beat.

Tobias

I need you.
But I won't tell you.
Like before I pretend to be self-sufficient.

I want you.
But I won't tell you.
Even if warned I should tell you.

I will keep my wants and needs within my head.
A secret that only I will know so well.

I love you.
This I know deep down inside.
But this I will tell you because you make me smile.

Agar zindagi kay samundar may
Kabhi toofan na atay
Kya hum kabhi zindagi ki kashti koi chalana seekh patay
(Urdu and Hindi.)

English translation

If there were no occurence of storms in the sea of life
Would we ever learn to steer the boat of life?
