Analysis of Love
There would be heaven
in stranger's eyes
as new friends lock words.
(There is heaven
in your imagined eyes,
friendship's beauty locks me.)
There would be bliss
as the sparkle left
the corners and laughed.
(There is bliss
as I catch the sparkle
and wrap it in honey.)
There would be delight
in finding someone special
inside a magical existence.
(There is delight
in finding you within
a world consisting of thought.)
There would be love
in the giggles thrown
across different worlds.
(There is love
in the giggles that
shake my body.)
There would be friendship;
sealed with a kiss,
that captures immortality.
(There is friendship born
and sealed with mouths
that jump from the screen.)
There would be petals
spinning passion from
tiny red roses carved.
(There are petals
bleeding red magic
from the coloured ink.)
There would be everything
that time could give
in its blessing nod.
(There is everything
time allows in learning
of another's soul.)
