He saw her from afar away |

For every word I’ve said untrue Pray what I write will tell you true that I love you He saw her from afar away But knew it was to be nothing more than wishing for proximity Then he saw her close among his friends But he knew just seeing her was were it ends But still he wished to talk to her and walk with her But he never thought this could be Until he was sitting close to her His dreams came true when he spoke to you But his talks with such beauty also bring sadness Before, all he felt was just an attraction To a beautiful sunrise who now makes him the flower He has surrendered to her and her power She is standing ten feet far above A giant he dare not touch or kiss or love For all of dreams might fall apart with one word from her tiny lips Yet he wants nothing more than to have her love And if ever he hurts her heart Let him feel a thousand times the feeling for a thousand years And if such hurt came to her that feels more tangible I would end my life with pain, from the bite of serpents’ bane Let it pierce my arm and the venom should fill my veins And kill my blood and slay my mind All this for one second of suffering or a minor sting upon her This man has forever wanted simple things and yet now he wants such complexity For in all the wonder of the world she has more splendors And for all the sadness the world can bring she is all I can notice Her glance is to me a caress from angels with light that shines heavenly songs of grace I cannot think of her embrace For I fear it would kill me No man could ever sense such a feeling A happiness that stretches time and all boundaries in this world And If I were to hold her and feel such joy, I would die then a happy man But it is so now that I feel in my heart a pain and sadness One that can be so vast as to be in all For as unbound my joy could feel my sadness can be greater And in all the woe of all the world this should be the saddest For a love so complete that I would give it away, will never be mine to give And she so gave what I give to her, to another And yet I should say that fate brought us together Only now I think it was to give me sorrow For in a few days I have found that my love for her will not end in the endless morrows She might deny feelings I have for her Such feelings I cannot speak in words She has a he whom she loves so complete as to not give him away And him her, but such is so, the way that love is done Confusing as the universe and timeless as the one But just say yes when the time comes I say to you Do you love me too? |
