Immortalised Love
Your Little Squirrel’s feelings
Overflowing with love,
Undying devotion..
And divine reverence
You multiply, My Sweetie Bear
With creatures in the ocean
And the stars in the sky..
The words you uttered
The dreams you shared
The feelings you expressed
The smile you bestowed
The love when you caressed
The incomplete kiss you left
The warmth your touches brought..
Every moment I preserve
Weaving them inside
As my Soul’s blanket
Breathing them inside
As my Heart’s beat
Wrapping them inside
As my Life’s secret..
I squirrel them away,
To relive with, My Lovely Bear
In the darkest phase of my life.
Since that love; once you shared
With the language of truth
Immortalized forever
In this lyric’s form….!!
