As the new day dawns upon my sunlit eyes
And ears fill with merry chirp of waking birds
I throw my pillow tears away into the night
And give myself to melody of sweet accords.
This is how I breathe you in and never out,
This is how vital oxygen fills my empty lungs,
Distant echoes emerge into mellifluent sounds
And passionate love settles in lovesick hearts.
Sunshine creeps upon my face like evil spider
And weaves its sturdy web with silky threads,
I close my heavy eyes and like a dauntless fighter
Resist ruinous thoughts stuck deep in my head.
This is how I breathe you in, eluding and silent,
This is how my shadow follows your every stride,
My salty tears break in dust of flawless diamonds
Dissolving like seashore sand in the sigh of night.
And wherever I step, memories of you like wine,
Intoxicate with every thought and every dream
Where silent tunes woven in golden sunshine
Are carried on the wings of distant summer wind.
This is how I breathe you in lost in sweet eternity,
This is how blood speeds in my strained veins,
Every loud word of story belongs to you and me
But tears are only mine and so is my love pain.
