Tell me!
If I were to tell you
of my unspoken love...
My Love!
Would you stop
to take a step...
and dip in the nocturnal pond
of our magic,
beside me!!

I know!
It is not easy
for you to say or talk...
about how we feel,
and what we go through.
Some wizardry day!
A day may dawn...
emboldening us to abandon
all our sensibilities!!
