Not waiting forever

As I sit on the heap of sands of a dead river,

My mind becomes heavy thinking of a reluctant lover.

Suddenly, I see a flock of birds flying over my head as if showing me omen of love,

For, I see life in my thought and I see light in the horizon of my new hope.

I know my love belongs to me and remain around me as prisoner of my dream,

For, I desire not to swim alone in an abandoned love as dried stream.

I know my life and desire live together and desire of love making my honeymoon,

But reality comes first before my love reaching to the desired destination.

Oh, dear, you stop not loving your lover and frustrate like lovelorn lover alone,

One day, you will see the wave of love reaching to your desired lover shore,

Let your love and hope live together and endure stormy wind and storm as lover fighter,

And certainly one day you will reach shore of love as lover dreamer .
