You brought a new life
Into my mundane living
You drew a thousand pictures
On the bare walls of my heart
Smokes, wine and useless thoughts
You replaced them with your thoughts
The words which had eloped my strings
Found its way back
The rusted strings of my violin
Found its tune again
The songs I had forgotten to sing
Found my lips fast enough
Restless evenings and unwanted thoughts
Replaced by hope, the hope to be with you
I saw a thousand dreams in your eyes
You weaved a thousand stories in your smile
I heard your childish laughter
Composed music hearing your anklets’ peal
Wherever I went, your thoughts took precedence
Rituals changed, routines forgotten
A whole new life evolved
Changed for the good, changed for you
You spoke to me, I heard nothing
Was cleansing myself from all my sting
Looking at you, I forgot all my troubles
Thinking about you, about us, rejuvenated me
The rusted strings played tunes
Which I never thought would hear
The tired vocals delivered a sound
Powerful than the victory trumpet
Is that my flames’ last effort
My rusted strings’ last attempt
If it is, I cherish my last days
Days with your thoughts
Lived my last days the way I wanted
Not wasted, but with you.
