The fresh paint…

I close my eyes and there I see, The forever-fresh paint of my memory; Handsome you on your knee, Pulling out a ring and asking me. I turned red like the velvety rose, That u gave me, as i held it close. You then kissed me as i murmured yes, With my eyes full of happy…

The breath of your love…

you heal the unreachable scars life made, you hear the unspoken language of my silence, you see the invisible depths of my eyes and their shines, you learn the inexplicable emotions of my heart. your understanding is the breath of your love, your warmth has been the boon of its breeze, you are an answer…
