YOUR LOVE TAUGHT ME
Your love taught me
the meaning of perplexity
It taught me longing
It taught me jealousy
I awoke to the sound of your heartbeat
holding me tightly to its soul and life
The sweetest dreams
I dream of you
even when I sleep
my heart stays awake for you,
stays up late, full of wishes
but perplexed between speech & silence
Oh eyes, capable of love,
and of capturing me;
(they) made me forget myself
After embracing me
I stay awake.
And when you talk to me,
even if I were in hell,
you'd transport me to heaven.
