I chose words carefully, wrote them down,
And read and revised a number of times
Before I sent them your way…..
I trembled happily, sang a careless tune,
Dreamt with open eyes, saw endless visions
Before I got carried away…..
Suddenly a thought crept into my mind
And my heart missed a beat as it said:
“What you sent were merely ideas stray,
Your deep love, you failed to convey.”
I was shocked as I felt I was blind,
My heart can’t be shown in the poem I made.
As I lay in my sorrow, crestfallen and distressed…..
He called me, and my spirits were uplifted!
He said, “My dear, words are hopelessly inadequate,
Listen to the beats of my heart, it is as passionate.”
The words dissolved…..
The visions melted…..
I lost myself
And gained Paradise!!
