Love Poem: The Music of My Dream

The Music of My Dream

I stare at light 
counting the flashes 
One by one 
Counting the pulse of my heart 
while touching - without hesitation 
the light arc which sleeps
under your eyelids 

I stare carefully 
while I paint a green dream
from the green forests of your eyes  

I stare at the waves of thy eyes, 
And like a cloud fed its heart
to the first wave,
I fed your eyes my heart's love 
   
While your shadow leans
Silently upon my wound 
I questioned all the artless reminiscences
of love and sad and death

So forgive my curious silent sad
Which lives outside your sadness

I'd no longer know how much time 
Stayed sat alone in the silence,
begging from the sky, the smiles 

All what I know now is to live 
As a dove between your arms
