Deep Love

Right from the start when he fallen for you 
fall for you in the midst of your heart
like a rain that falls in a desert
not a rain in an ocean that 
goes for a waste.

Your heart was empty but what
you wanted was the rain
the rain of love that gloom the 
heart till the floods not of anger and 
hatred occurs but floods of love, trust, honest and truthfull

He became the rain in an empty heart
the heart escalated to its normal pumping rate
the broken part could start healing
the scars and the unheal wounds 
could evade slowly till it wasn't seen
the attraction roses of love became 
the shining alloys in you face

You smile could be seen now light the hearts
changing the heat in the city to boiling point 
you became his rocking star 
the rhythm to your heart made him 
dance all night till sleep was history to him

Your heart was his new home of which it was locked 
from outside he could not take to his heels to walk
in the morning the lights could stack and all he 
could see was the chains
he was again no longer a free man 

He could no longer figure out his life without you
Slave is a name i could give to him now 
not a slave to the brutal police in a nation
but a slave to the heart of someone special 
in his life that's you

The only moment he thought was free 
was when he saw the open doors of the flow 
of liquid kind of blood
not a blood drive to the city you lights 
he could follow the flow of your blood 
but he was taken around the nations in 
your body to deliver feed to your body

The doors he thought was open was valves
but could only allow him take a ride 
and be back at night 

Now the nation is against slavery 
You had to let him go with pain 
in your eyes also felt with water 
that could sink your eyes 
the cheeks could be flooded with flood of tears
when you realize he was your Uncle
