Analysis of Diamonds On Mars
You briefly reminded me of my beauty
And penetrated my heart with longing
desires. It rains diamonds on mars,
quietly you said.
My diamonds lie in the soul of you.
Why do I long for the desire of the
first kiss? Once taken and never given
back, once tasted and never swallowed,
once created and never rebuilt.
I cannot replicate together the desires
lost, but long for the first again.
My life belongs to the love once made,
intimacy once shared.
It rains constantly in my heart,
my emotions lie in the lake of feelings
of being wanted and appreciated.
I perish the imagery of mars, where it
rains diamonds. And the only precious stone
of them all, rain holds no boundaries,
to an endless love.
