Even if I use a million fanciful words
to describe how I feel about you,

Yet

words are simply inadequate
to express the intensity of my emotions
Words are simply ineffective
to express my truest admiration.

Because when love happens,

words lose all significance.
Life with you
is not about
attaining milestones.
It is simply
enjoying
every
moment
to the fullest,
laughing
at the misadventures,
grinning
at the adventures,
smiling
at the successes,
learning
from failures,
handling
disappointments
supporting
each other
when life is not so smooth
and inspiring
one another
to take the next step.
I just know that you'd be an excellent lover
between the sheets, you'd be alike to no other
my heart it soars, my heart it flutters
a burn from your fever, this love
I would gladly suffer
Trying so hard to get over the past
Left me in a hole far too deep
And now I must face the reality
I never wanted to see
Drowned myself in clouds of smoke
And the pain never seemed to leave
But Im finally reaching the point
Where I am returning to being me
Love never promises you
endless happiness,
that's an assumption.



Love only promises you
a myriad of intense emotions.
Dreaming of a cerulean sky
A lovely smile and tender eyes
Petals falling as if it rained
This flowerbed is where I lie
Tuis dance above the trees
And sing their favourite melodies
Is this a real or fantasy?
These bed sheets know the best of me
In between the sal trees
glistens the river in October light
inviting in the rustling of leaves
to kiss her gently breaking ripples.

She hastes down the rocky *****
impatient as the river gets close
giggling in the dream when her toes
embrace the chill of the late autumn.

The catkins on the other side
swayed vigorously to be with her
spreading with the wind their pollens
in a mad desire to touch her skin.

This October morn she was carefree
floating amid hijal, fig and velvet apple trees
with winds from the river on her sail.

I only watched the fairytale.
