Where the Fireflies Fly
It's because you made it

I invited you for the longest walk-
with no expectations,
but pure love.
It is because you awakened a new area in my heart that never opened
which I thought
that had died forever.
Exactly two thousand three hundred and seventy-six hours back,
you found the love
you've been resonating
for more than two thousand three hundred and seventy-six years!
Yeah gave me your hand,
and I held it so carefully,
like a sacred diamond
in my left hand.
The look you gave
while gazing around the world,
I saw as the proudest,
yet the humblest glance
of a vibrant peacock.
The strength you carried,
throughout the time,
recalled me the roar of a brave lioness
who fiercely kills all the demons.
I know you saw the trust and truth
in my peaceful eyes,
and so did I.
You gently began to lean toward me
while walking on the shady sidewalk
in that magical evening.
When even the sun
was hiding in the other way
giving us space.
We paused so silently.
And I slowly,
made you lean more toward me
and our eyes met.
They were smiling
with immense peace
for having the love of an eternity.
And then I found
the best listener I had ever met
to listen to my endless talks
that fly from fancy peaks
to deep philosophical trenches.
Also, I found the brave warrior
who would join me
in confronting evil with no conditions.
All of a sudden,
I saw a shimmering set of rings of light,
started passing us.
And we were taken away
by a force we have never experienced before,
still each other holding hands strong.
We reached somewhere blank like a vacuum
where only you and I existed.
All of a sudden I felt a scent came
from somewhere making me
even more peaceful to the fullest.
I sought for
where it came from
and finally realized that
it's from nowhere else but you.
It was the scent of your bliss of love.
At that moment
you looked at my eyes again,
in the usual but most amazing way.
"I'll give my best -just trust me forever!"
was written so gleamingly on them.
Your forehead
was so close to me
and my lips
found that it was
the place to be at the moment.
The silence kept for a few seconds
and again we were encircled
by those circles of lights
and we were taken
through the same dark channel as before.
In a few seconds,
we were back again
at where we were at the beginning.
My princess,
you will recall how magical
the way we were covered
by thousands of fireflies.
Yeah-all around us.
I saw the light in your eyes
and it reflected the love and joy.
And you swiftly grabbed my left hand
and started running after
where the fireflies came from.
It was such a magical stream of light,
I also joined with pleasure.
There were millions of them coming
and still we were running so happily.
We ran, breathless and laughing,
and finally came to a gigantic field spread
till the horizon
where a huge tree was there at its heart.
Baby, do you remember
how beautifully billions of fireflies
were flying around
and for sure it was their home!
I saw you stopped
and held my hands tight.
Then you pressed your body
so lovely and stared at my eyes in glee.
"Baby, this is where we should be"
Your adorable lips broke the silence.
My mind
was whispering the same
as you when I saw it.
Then that babyish giggling of yours
came up so fast
and you jumped over me
and let me down on the flowery ground
making yourself right on top of me.
WHEW!
Again I saw your eyes.
There it was pure love and trust for me.
Then fireflies flew over you
making your frock gleaming
and I witnessed
the most beautiful angel with it.
Next, your nicest voice came up
singing, defeating the power
of all the instruments.
I hugged you tight
right on my chest,
and you found that
it was the safe place for you in life.
Both of our heartbeats started to resonate.
Then I drew you close,
rolled you gently to face the sky,
and your soothing lips
had already found my face in love.
Right then, we saw an amazing shower of meteors
and I saw my baby made a wish
and so did I.
And for sure it was, "May our true love win!".
The night struck us with coldness more
and I pressed you to me that you won't get colder.
This might not have been written
in history as a romantic epic.
But the universe
always saw what we were doing
and how we started
a new chapter and blessed us.
So the prettiest,
a day would come making these all
harsh sacrifices win through, letting us soar high in love!
