The world revolves around you
My name is in your heart strings
It whispers mystery and magic
Of obligations and revolutionary zeal
The same name is in the church
Roaring twenties and Velvet Underground
Writings abound around the newspaper
My children played hide and seek
The streets are aglowed with sweet jasmine
The cross and Bible hanging with passion
My new found love for solitude and distance
Hope it reaches into your ear
Forget about blind inspiration
The cats are meek and playful
Books are your beautiful yearning
As you pin your love for me.
