A poet

 

You asked me from where I get the words

And to where I am going far with my words

You asked me how I let them say what I meant

And how I collect some and let it

In my wide lines truly fit

What do you wanna know about me else?

 

You wanna know

What I mean, what I feel, what inside me glow

How I turn the shadows brighten ?

How I made the next morning exciting?

How I made the first road to love shining?

And how I made the stone tells a poem

About the love was here before nature adventure?....

 

You wanna know

What I mean, what I feel, what inside me glow

How I made your eyes in all the ages of love immortal

How I turn the madness of love into something logical

And how I let the din voice in your gray night dream

Turn into a sunshine bird in your window singing louder?..

 

If you wanna know

Tell me why god made your eyes beauty's true

Why god made small things and smaller than it

Why god made the great things and greater than it

Why god made the small difference

Between the whole things and created life and details for it..

That’s why I have the love for you, and my words

 

So you still asking from where I get the words

And to where I am going far with it?

 

Well, I don’t get the words from the bottom of the sea

They don’t fall on me from the out space

All the words comes from Me…

From your love inside Me..

 

And into your close eyes I am going far with it.
