The time was war- in my mind and in
the world around me.
And then I saw him, the man with
those green eyes.
His smile melted the ice in my heart
He came for me, crossing seas and destinies
The man to whom my heart
surrendered
He ruled his people -
and rule my mind.
The poet in me awakened when we met.
He gave new meaning to my life,
taught me how to breathe in a different way
The nights our souls whispered-
secretly through the stars.
One day our love bloomed
in the silence between wars.
One night, it turned to ashes
He vanished without a word
And left me caged inside my own
heart,
with all the promises we once
whispered into stars.
Still, I wait-
for our last promise to come true:
the promise of being together
in our next life.
