FOREST OF MY MIND !

I'm walking through the  forest of  my mind

My soul breathes your name,

Rustling of leaves spin a romance

Heart aches for you.

A fog of silence lay trapped in the woods

Dumb trees say nothing

Lonely path disappears into mist

I need your coat to protect me from this December cold

Wrap me up in your warm embrace.

Are you there, waiting just around the bend?

My eyes strain through darkness like an impatient child,

Veil of night evokes a mystery

I wonder what remains unrevealed,

I leave no chance to run away

into the open space of my thoughts to explore more.

WE CAN WALK TO THAT PLACE....

We can walk to that place

where day never meets the night,

Only light kisses the truth of our existence,

We can walk to that place

where my tears wash away your wounds

Heal your hidden pain,

We can walk to that place

where we won't be under the burden of our promises,

At the altar of my conscience I'll place a white rose

to recognise our love so pure,

I'll remain in your embrace as if there's no tomorrow.

We can walk to that place

where we'll cry and wipe our tears of joy

Give each other another chance to live life like never before,

We can walk  to that place

where you will be only mine

Allow me to take refuge in your shadow,

We can walk to that place

where on the desert of time we'll write our names .

I'LL REMAIN ALIVE SOMEWHERE

IN YOUR HEART !

I may not  be there but I promise

to remain alive somewhere in your heart,

I'll pass by you like the breeze in spring

Caress you softly,

You may stop me with your love

I'll play on your lips like a beautiful  song.

I may not be there but I promise

to remain alive somewhere in your heart,

I'll be around you

Wait in silence,

In the rays of the sun,in the drops of rain,

You will find my presence everywhere

I won't be too far,

You may see me or you may not

I'll remain alive somewhere in your heart

On a chilly morning I'll be your  gorgeous day

I'll wear a cloak of sunshine and embrace you tight,

You may hear me or you may not

I may not be there but I promise

to remain alive somewhere in your  heart.
