THEN

I lay beside you, the last few hours to dawn, as the moon grows older,

I wish I knew, your dream, as I listen you breathe on my shoulder!

Could I could carry you home, hold your hands, and show you the way,

I wish I was high, fleeing from the starlight nights, just running away!

You showed me the world I have never seen; can you promise me a tomorrow?

I wish I knew, to unlock your destiny, as I feel your smell, in a night so yellow!

The last few hours of the dawn, the last surrender, I don’t want it to end,

The first rays of the sun, would take you away, I don’t want the night to pass!

I have never stopped loving you!

NOW

It has been long; I didn’t see your sunflower smile,

The wishes dancing and the kisses flying,

I still remember your smell and your touch,

A hundred times over!

I can still write poetries for you, and sing you lullabies,

I won’t tire to look into your doe- eyes, and ask you if you still love me.

A hundred times over!

You are still the brightest star in my lonely sky!

I still could go all the way up and place the moon at your feet,

And the stars too!

I am still crazy for that touch of yours, ruffling my hairs,

Fleeting glances, and unforgiving desires,

I can still die for you, or if you want I can kill you again,

A hundred times over!

I wish I could hang the gods, and run away (with you),

It has been long that I didn’t look into your eyes, see the love in them!

I have only heard that it still burns deep somewhere!

I have written you a song today, just to say, that I can still carry you home!

That I still think of the last few hours to dawn,

As I watched you breathe and listen to your dreams

You will always be the brightest star, in my lonely sky!

I don’t mind if you are 24 or 64, my love for ye will never die!
