[untitled]

come to me

come to grow in me

let us grow together

my tired muscles

are in pain of lack

my strained muscles

are stiff of the effort

"I am coming,

will you really recieve me?"

I will,

with rose petals

fresh papaya, milk and roasted grains

and an ever burning fire

in every one of my cells

"will you recieve me even

if it is only for while?"

I will,

we are together even

if we part

and will you stay also

in pain and in lack 

or in the fear

which are my share sometimes?

"I will,

I'll cry with you

and shall not leave

as we live on through these"

come to me

I prepared cushions of cotton and silk

in every one of my cells

"I am here,

here I am"

This is great. It made me cry so much. I think this poem is sweet.
