Tell me fair oh fair o’ mine,
Will you keep yourself forlorn forever?
Have I tried for o’er a thousand times
To melt the ice ‘round coldest heart,
Which is numbed so beautifully?

Give me no no’s today, not today.
Have I not given all my all for not?
Should not that be worth a smallest something?
A kiss, embraced in the cold blue of my bed sheets,
Drawn slow, more so by time until
The moment lasts forever; I shall embrace you forever there.

Just as in the silence of meditation,
Would you not speak to me in tongs?
Instead, touch me; I will you, to show you my feelings.
Only our most sensuous and tangible senses can express,
Only my elucidation through tender sensations will tell you:
My love is a fire, burning, blazed, and exhausted,
So give me shelter, a place hidden from the torrents of longing tears.  



I am the two-toed wanderer
