For I have seen jewels, and I have a gem,
The beauty, though flawless
Has not sufficient charms to enchant my ascetic soul.
But why am I falling, faltering and cracking up?
This curiosity burning in my soul
And the emotional complications therein
Suffice for the why I have so stubbornly pestered you
Just to the point of exclaiming: "is it possible to love two?"
But I don't know.
I don't know; as I don't know the reason behind
Your coquettish choice of me.
I don't know; as I can't still fathom the why I have decided
To grok the esoteric proclamations of your possessed soul,
Despite the warning of dire consequences,
And pursue this strange but interesting entanglement.
"Stay away from me;" you said
"I am dangerous for you."
But the drunk me is no man back off
Albeit the apparent reasons to fear.
The journey is complicated;
The weird eruptions in my stomach best define it.
But I am no man to back off.
The impulsive me is no man to back off
From this eloquent "foolhardiness"
Which end I cannot predict.
So if stubborn this hypnosis has made me,
Why don't you consider we connecting beyond this realm?
To the aquifer underground, beneath all the rocks_ your home_
Take my hands, take me there for the fortification of my soul.
And return me strong, sturdy and invincible for my marvels.
