!

the rain was falling on the night

outdoor café we stayed in spite

of soggy mozzarella

hands over drinks like umbrellas

 

the laughter lining both your eyes

made me feel both warm and dry

travel agents cannot invent

such a wonder and amazement

 

i use to laugh at the lyric

experience was empiric

that all one really needs is love

“get away from me!” as i shoved

now in this café consciousness

i want to scream my new assess:

 

“oh give me, give me all your heart

i’ve loved you from the very start

take my temperature with your tongue

you are the air within my lungs

unless it’s you no one will do

i have learned dreams can come true

we waste and wonder while looking

change recipes while we’re cooking

they advertise a satisfy

with our longings we run and buy

but keep it all, yes everything

i’ve found the joy of which they sing

it’s in your eyes looking at me

i’ll give to you the flowing streams

that unifies every ocean

swim the depths of my emotions

till you are drowning in the love

everyone is dreaming of”
