TO LAYDI ANIS: LOVING YOU If loving you were wrong I would never make it right If it hurt to see you smile I would brace for a #life of pain If the grace of your hand Was the guillotine’s glee I would submit And be quick would plead If loving you were the sun’s demise Then the world shall abundantly hate For the light of day Shall be a dream and a curse And I shall be damned for self Can you see the third step’s tread? For sight I need not a third You are the unseen For that I need just love And love, just you If loving you is pure and sweet and #life Then I shall live an eternity If it were the infantile cry To a laboured mother’s relief Then I would be born again and again To remember your eyes As upon me your first sight glaze
