Sylph and Constellation

Before getting close

To clouds, and birds in flight;

Looking down on roofs, and plains afar from sight;

Coping up with different altitudes

And blending roots to other cultures,

I'd prefer to break the clock

And be with you.

I'd grasp the chance

To get nigh and stare at that visage

Etched in memory like a haunting mirage

Free our echoing or contrasting notions

Spill out the dumbest jokes

'Coz it's cool to see your subtle emotions.

We could wander on busy streets,

Or gaze on blinking stars and make a wish!

 

But I'm not sure if I'd be brave

To tell the words I rehearsed,

Or flash boxed feelings.

If cowardly I didn't...

Please...

Oh, Please...

Hear the screaming silence

And shattering tears.

Years will fly by

But my hopes won't die.

I'll send letters to that Star

Hoping our paths to reunite.

Let kismet light our way,

For I believe,

Our Guide won't lead us astray.
