Love Poem: If Only Butterflies

If Only Butterflies

If only alluring butterflies led me the right way, 
                 If only ravishing flowers showed me the idyllic path, 
               If I fathomed what the blinking stars were trying to tell me, 
         
                             I would come back to you in an instant! 

             May be you were immersed in thoughts of a meandering journey, 
                           Perhaps you sent your adoring messages 
                            with silvery clouds which floated away. 
            I would not be hindered by any obstacles, believe me, my love, 
                                    I would find my path to you! 

                               Sometimes life is menacingly gloomy, 
                             dark clouds cover the unilluminated sky, 
                                   Sometimes it rains relentlessly, 
                                   
                    Oh my beloved, trust me, trust my unwavering love, 
                I would not lose my way even in the fiercest of darkness,
                            My path would not drift away from yours, 
                               I would unmistakably return to you,
                               If Only.....
