The Rung
Let me sing you a song
With beats from my heart
And the rhythms from my eyes
Awesome lyrics of my feelings
Let me send you emissaries
Of the glacial grandeur
Mirroring the intense of fire
Burning in me, so fiercely.
Let me reach into the crust
Of your sacred powerhouse
With the tenderness of my crush
Let me brew you a wine
With the finest blend of wheat
Let me ignite on your face
The world’s brightest smile
Let me be ‘wrong’ for once
Cos the only right side is the left
Where lies your heart
And let me be the rung
That keeps your heart strong
