How...




I can never understand
How your gentle smile
Radiates rays of Sunlight
That beams through my opaque body
And stays in my solidary heart.

How your enchanting smile
Brimming with warmth
Tops up my empty heart
With love that runs through your veins.

How half of you
Flows in my blood
And once in a while
Pumps up to my head
And jolts my brain to think of you.

How my temperature rises
As your image floats in my eyes,
Dances in my memory.

Maybe some day I will understand
How I just seem to get lost
In your galaxy of thoughts
From your flawless
Eyes shimmering with my reflection.

How I yearn for time
To speed up.
How I yearn for you
To grow up.
How I yearn for our
Love to spark
Flares and shoot up
Fireworks warming
Our hearts.



2 years after this poem was written, I wrote another poem — How... revisited. The Reader may read them side-by-side for greater connection and impact. It offers some closure to love's twist and turns.
