The Pillow

The secluded cries, the silent sighs, the most obstinate roars and much more, when communicated to a pillow.

————

Do you have a bleeding heart of your own? 

How can you feel my killing love? 


The fragrance of night Jasmine makes me cry…

I can’t stand outside. 

Dear Pillow, Every time I miss my beloved, 

You offer me your edges to get wet 

With tears of my helpless grief

and tolerates my kisses silently

And returns me the warmth of his chest. 


I miss those cuddles and smile, 

The mild musk fragrance of his soul 

The taste of chocolate mousse

beneath the layers of his love 

The hugs of all strengths,

the faith in his eyes, 

The need in his wraps,

when he made me feel like a fragrant mist. 


Hey Dear Pillow … are you listening? 

I know all my mute dreams and memories 

Are safely locked in your heart. 

You even felt my secluded cries,

the silent sighs, and the most obstinate Roars. 


O-My pillow, my dear pillow… 

Thank you for being there for me 

Thank you for listening to my madness 

Please don't tell anyone these secrets

I told you in this sleepless night...
