Blue Abyss, worlds apart, and only two senses to celebrate your beauty
It’s not just the distance, eight hours of time, that keep our lives so far
From one another we can only hear a voice, see burred images, and as much as I try
I could not materialize the smells, the flavors, not the softness of the silk without you
My hands are powerless, my tongue too dry, the essences are all gone with the pass of time
I dream a dream with open eyes, the black more black, tulips more impossible to find
And then I choose to close my eyes to live the life:
Katherine, Robert, Sean, and Aaron running in joy as they see you arrive
The aroma of meat and mushrooms cooking for lasagna today
And the Mediterranean breeze moving your hair, making me feel what happiness really is
Lacoste is in the air, and far away, I don’t know where, somebody still plays...
Some heavy metal: Seven, Four, Five, and Nirvana
I serve you a Bloody Mary, like every day,
And you smile again before you go to play
You are now the one who’s teaching:
English, Soccer, you are their God
To me, you are still the Persian Prince I just have to meet
One day, two years, five, ten from now
Celebrating one more birthday with a Black Forest cake
It’s a beautiful park, but wait,
Your image is blurred again...
I only hear your voice now, your voice that tells me:
Look at the light running through the beautiful cherry blossoms

There are a myriad of emotions all rushing in at once from all sides, slamming against your senses.... wow! LEO! keep up the good work! Add music and record your poetry in motion.
