Good day

thirsty.

By Kisama Riyo Published 2 years ago • 1 min read

I asked the heart: How long will you live?

It said: Love is my life where it breathes.

I asked love: How long will you stay?

It said: The soul is thirsty when close.

I asked distance: Have you told about me?

The beloved of the heart when close.

It said: I am a hoopoe to you in

The life of love when close, it swims.

I forgot that I am far from it.

And I remembered that this love is stingy.

I was stingy with it to those close to me.

I found it for those who are alert in distance.

If I asked for friendship, I would say: My friendship

To the owner of the heart... I am healthier with him.

I was born and my birth is on a day of friendship

And that day the morning was kind

I am deaf, I do not hear

To the gossipers the voice of hatred barks

I will live for friendship and I do not care

Because the talk of this love is salty.
