"The things that keep me alive "

Poem

The sound of scarlet wrinkled leaves

falling slowly out of their branches

Gliding through the cool autumn breeze

As winter is waiting to take its turn

.

The sight of the golden summer sun

When the time for the day to end has come

Gleaming faintly in the horizon

With its vivid, vibrant colours

Reminding us of places unknown

.

The scent of the fallen raindrops

After the storm has ended.

waking memories of innocence and bliss

Times where there was not much to miss

.

The sound of your kind voice

The scent of your tempting body

The sight of your deep ocean eyes

Filled with curiosity for the world

A sight so beautiful

It cannot be described

It brings me to tears every time

.

I'll always dream of your touch

Or to feel for once your hand

Only to see how it is

To be held by someone

.

And your sweet red lips

Waiting to be kissed

By someone else,

Why can't they be mine?

.

Oh, how I'd give up all of the above

Just for this

A moment's kiss

I'd forget about all of those things

And every time I would be feeling down

I'd think about this one moment

And cherish it forever

.

Forget the sun

Forget the rain

Forget the breeze

.

My only sun is your blinding light

My only rain is your tearing eyes

My only breeze is your gentle lips

.

But after all, I have none of these

So, the rest will have to suffice.
