Candles of Hope

I have kept candle of tears burning in hope, 
you will come someday to me. 

My body is pumping blood like volcano, 
taking breath like hurricane. 

I think about you like lightning in sky, 
an imagination comes out like waves in ocean. 

My foot takes up the flight of an eagle, 
hands write about you like the slide from snow. 

Ah, when this evening arrives, 
dips me deep in 'sea of sorrow', 

I think about you & miss you. 
Tears come out like falling raindrops, 

Loneliness surrounds me like wind, 
And I really miss you.
