Before You

Pacifique Niyitanga

You know nothing,
Nothing about you;
About your presence—
in my life, do you?

You know how kind
and lovely you are,
But you don't know—
how heavenly you're.

Your eyes, they shine;
Your lips, they're fluffy;
You look so radiant—
even off your makeup.

I bet you don't know
how I used to feel,
To overthink and to—
sleep at night, do you?

You can't imagine it:
What I used to do,
All alone with no one;
None to hold my hand.

Believe me, before you,
My life was nothing—
but a boring highway,
I was just a rolling stone.

Hey, look into my eyes
You see someone,
Happiness and love,
And yourself, do you?

I am all yours, leman;
I am here for you, love;
To love and take a good—
care of you, only you.

Here, take my hand;
Wear your pretty smile,
A close look at your love,
And we dance for a while.

You know, I speak—
too much; the nonsense,
But still, you love me.
You are all mine, don't you?

    'My life was nothing—
    but a boring highway,
    I was just a rolling stone.'
