Paradise In Your Fortress
I toured the avenues of your spirit,
And I was cautious not to fall in your pit,
But you caught my soul with your kiss
Like a free bird trapped in your abyss.
I should have been lonely and helpless,
But within the depth of your fortress,
In the heart of your looming silence,
I found the real meaning of my existence.
I wish to be reborn like a freshly hatched spawn,
Fervently trailing towards the dawn,
For deep within the fortress of your eyes
I found my eternal paradise-
There where the waves kiss the shoreline freely
And the shoreline does not drive them away,
For the waters are in complete serenity
Like the winds that bring a solemn melody;
There where your tender soul longingly awaits
To give my heart a sweet embrace,
Where the touch of your thrilling sweet kiss
Gives me perpetual bliss;
There where the grace of your sweet caress
Pours down like rains of glorious consecration,
Where your heart riddled with benevolence
Builds a bridge towards salvation.
