Love Sonnet

Nothing except you
drives me to live
nothing except you
show me life
and yet when I try
to be close to you
you retreat in a shell
hiding your face

Give me your hand
I will dance with joy
tell me am not worthy
I will lie in devotion
surrendering my self
to you, your love in me
where there is no doubt
it seeks its god in you

I and you, are here for
few moments and then
we separate for unknown
and yet you stay so far
even in these little instances
you insist on this agony
that burns through
your heart and mine

At instance I see you
I land with  your innocence
i love to hold and kiss
but skin's gentleness stops
I then blow my kiss in air
for air is gentler than lips
thoughts hold your hands
roughness of mine may hurt

love I have forgotten all  those
with whom I ever laughed
but I cannot forget you ever
for with you I have cried
in that embrace, once
that lingers in me forever
and makes me love your
innocent heart - pilgrim soul
