Don't Put Me

Please, don't put me in a nightmare. I want to live in the open-minded temple of your heart. I have seen the full expression of your love. In the petals of sunflowers, marigolds, and dahlias that are wet with drizzle, In the vitality of flying migratory birds, In the delightful ascending smoke of the distant mountain that blended into the sky Please, don't put me in a nightmare. I want to live in the natural touch of your love. I have seen the full expression of your love. In the fragrance of tuberose that floated in the pure moonlight of the night, In the vertical attraction of the song sung in silence, And at the call of the twinkling eyes with the stars in the generous ground of the sky. Please, don't put me in a nightmare. I want to live alone with you. -10.12.2020 Chittagong
