Why You

Your voice hunted the beats of my heart,
and ran with the heat of my blood toward
the tip of these fingers.
Lingering your presence with me
if even over a journal..
For I had you roving with joy inside
my head today.
Just like the day before it,and the day before.

Drawing a smile on my face I recalled
precious moments;like when my heart leaps
the second my eyes catch your face..

How your presence makes me passionate,
how through your absence I turn to
be a poet who knows precisely how and what
she longs to say..

Dipping my pen into these emotions
that are beating insanity beyond
control, beyond distance.

For if a bit of time is not enough for us
to know each other, then neither would
eternity be adequate.
My beliefs and faith in you already
crossed the barrier of knowledge,
and the illusion of time.

And I remember that in my dreams I have
traveled some green miles, and some other
flowery ones to reach you.
The sun never departed the sky then
and the breeze gently held me all along this journey
even when I came back to reality..

..I found heaven there.

Still I had you roving sweetly inside
my heart today, just like you never
had before..
And it only took few more words from
your heart to gain my trust-
no my whole attention too

Yet you ask, why I believe in you!
