My Garden Flower

Since that bright and clear spring day I do remember
I have already known that I would not give up
To me you were the apple of my eye every night and day
You were to me an angel of God showing out of the mist
I have wished to ask your hand I wanted to say
My love is discret, guarded deep in my heart
I have wished to say I love my love, and done!
But I didn’t dare even when it was already too late
You are my world at dawn, my whole day
My world at night and my dream
You flow within my blood, spirit and heart
Sweet fragrance, my flower garden.
Since you went away my day is gloomy, long and boring
In vain do I want to forget and ignore,
Come back quickly, in your absence my world is desolated
My vocal cords have been silenced and my violin has stopped.
You are my world at dawn …

Your fingers tracing

She came to learn
dreams can come,
at too high a cost;

But she was brave &
took that risk,
though all was lost;

Now she chooses
dreamless nights &
hollow voids;

There she shall remain
till peace comes
crawling once again.

Dance me to the end of love ~ Geetha Balvannanathan

Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin
Dance me through the panic ’til I’m gathered safely in
Lift me like an olive branch and be my homeward dove
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love
Oh let me see your beauty when the witnesses are gone
Let me feel you moving like they do in Babylon
Show me slowly what I only know the limits of
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to the wedding now, dance me on and on
Dance me very tenderly and dance me very long
We’re both of us beneath our love, we’re both of us above
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to the children who are asking to be born
Dance me through the curtains that our kisses have outworn
Raise a tent of shelter now, though every thread is torn
Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin
Dance me through the panic till I’m gathered safely in
Touch me with your naked hand or touch me with your glove
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love
