Chinese Dream
Chinese dream
Her Oriental eyes
His Spanish smile,
She is forbidden fruit
A language in between
He cannot express how he feels
He cannot determine what she is made of,
She is like a mirage, created from
Pearl, diamond and the purest gold
Chinese dream
His heart is aching
Her eyes speaks another language also
His head and heart commence battle
‘You are meant to be together.’
Out of his control
‘She is the One.’
He wants control over the situation
Chinese dream
He doesn’t know a word of Chinese
His Spanish tongue, not so diverse
Her language alien to him
Helpless
Powerless
She walked by, her scent drifted
She saw him and felt it too
Chinese dream
What to do? What to say?
She smiled and shyly kept on
His camera in his hand
He automatically raised his hands
Surprisingly shaky, he snapped her shot
She disappeared into the town crowd
Her garments glisten, she is his
Chinese dream
His feet run on their accord, yet
He finds her easily, because
Her exquisiteness is unique
Her red dress so elegant
Her eyes so profound, he’s by her side
His hand reaches hers, she gasps, turns
Spanish tongue is stuck for words
Chinese dream
