Rare as a blue rose,
From the top of your head
To the tips of your toes.
In a strange quiet manner
Blooming lovely unseen
In your true character,
Beautifully different
from everyone else.

Thought i had forgotten
the thought of you
as things gathered dust
and as years go past
You were on my mind
all along
for very long...

You left with no parting
No saying goodbye
Darkness overwhelmed me
No music touched my heart
Nothing, nobody, nowhere
When you left so suddenly
Not one thing precious
Nobody to comfort
No place to shelter
Until you come back
A life surrendered to waiting.

True Love knows no returns,
Joy comes from the giving,
Releasing balloons to the air
Knowing they'll burst
In the end,
Setting caged birds free
To fly happily away,
Letting people hear beauty
In songs you sing so freely,
Knowing you
Not knowing me.

Promise to never ever
Again go away
And leave my days
Without music or magic
Do not take them forever
Please.
Promise to never go away
Leaving flowers in disarray
Empty sounds in my room
Notes with no melody
And lyrics with no meaning.

For it is only
Simple, your face is,
Eyes that hypnotize,
A nose that mesmerizes,
A mouth that surprises
With lips that suffice,
A smile that entices,
And a Voice that inspires
To write words
Meant only for your sight.

You own these words
Like you own my being,
Leaving slowly
Without parting,
Coming back quietly
With no welcoming.
Too precious,too few,
People like you
Who can give hell �
And heaven, too.

Soaring high the endless skies
Diving low the depth of seas
High, low
No rhythm too slow
No beat too fast
For voices of muses
combined,
Your Voice my love.

True Beauty cannot be faked
Nor patterned after,
For how can anyone imitate
The pride in her nose
Due to the dignity of her character,
The glitter in her eyes
From the fire of passions within her,
The dazzle of her smile
Born from her inner laughter.
No need to thank the good doctor
Because only God is her true Author.
