You have flown a lot, saying that
the heart wants to take a flight,
It wanders through the globe
doing all things of great delight.
Sometimes it takes big strides
expeditions across the seven seas,
Diving in the aquamarine lagoons
exploring the wild, flying like geese.
Sometimes it wanders through
the places too dangerous,
I get concerned for its safety
it rebukes me for not being adventurous.
He insists his fights are imaginary
there is no real physical danger,
That he will always come back
and not get lost like a stranger.
Sometimes he wanders too close
to the smiles, I prefer to avoid,
when sparkles meet the first dimples
all this imprisons him in a void.
It climbs slowly from the earlobes
catching the shiny black curls,
hanging on to the long eyelashes
diving in the depths of eye swirls.
I wait for it impatiently for so long
get worried as it misses a beat,
the mind screams all this won\'t last
still, he hardly gives it a treat.
He says, let me enjoy it while it lasts
You will also not be here for too long,
be magnanimous, enjoy the song
just try to be kind and to be strong.
