foreign Land

The whirlwind romance I always wanted,
Is no where to be found.
I searched for it under the trees,
It was always fleeting like a leaf,
Drifting through air carried to a foreign faraway land.
I found it in the eyes of a man still a boy in spirit.
In his eyes was a promise of undiscovered shores,
Waiting for me to unravel their mysteries.
In his eyes was an innocence,
Of somebody who has known betrayal,
Yet believes in the purity of the human soul.
He is an iced late among hot drinks in a hot summer day,
When he smiles firecrackers lit up the sky.
He taught me to live the moment ,
And forget about tomorrow and yesterday.
He told m today is here to stay.
He makes me still believe in the mythical character; Love.
That unicorn I always chase.
I needed a man as pure as snow ,
To unblock my creativity,
To bare my soul,
As a banana is peeled to be eaten,
As the gem needs cleaning to shine,
My heart needed him to love again.
Will his arms be my velvet lounge where I finally rest?
