Dear You

Where does this tenderness come from?

And what shall I do with it?

I can but thank you my fate....

For I breathe happiness instead of air,

Slowly and deeply...

Engulfing me like a warm blanket,

Stirring and teasing me...

This smell of pure joy,

Is it the scent of you?

All my past life is mine no more,

You fashion me within you,

Like sweet thoughts in a dream,

You meander me into a calm stream,

This glow in my heart and soul,

That your name brings and I feel so,

Is it the thought of you?

For just as in your name is hidden my name,

Life without you will not be so true and same.

Anchor you have become of my life,

That I hope you will cherish for long.
