For he’s all mine and I love him so deep!
Be a little kind and show me some mercy;
Help me not blink and help me follow the heresy!
I shall if I can, still the time till perpetuity
Just to keep looking at him and to feel his affinity
I want to engulf him with my soft embrace
And charm myself with his vivid grace.
You have been so loyal, I have been so too
But more do I love him and that’s always true!
You have been my life all through my life
Still I would forego you like a child, naïf!
Nothing shall come between him and myself
Not even the dreams nor even my tress.
Listen to me once ‘cos I love him so deep
Step aside Sleep and never again peep!
Heresy = unorthodoxy
Perpetuity = eternity
Vivid = Vibrant
Naïf = Naïve, innocent
A romantic piece of poetry, where a young girl does not want to sleep and wants to be awake all night to feel the aura of her beau. She’s pleading with Sleep to step aside and stay away.
