Hide and Seek The kite of my heart Soared high into the open sky; And, the moment it saw you, It rushed and flew toward you. It met you so gently, As though we were old companions; Seeing the love within it, You lowered your eyes in shy silence. The kite of my heart Touched softly against your own; And whispered something to you That awakened forgotten stories. ⸻ If only I had been un timid, I would have opened my arms and embraced you; Your golden flowing tresses I would have caressed with tender love. When I saw your silent confession, I grew shy; When I saw the love in your eyes, All my confusion faded away Later I wondered— If only I had touched your lips; Your playful glowing cheeks I would have teased with gentle affection. Now every night You appear inside my dreams; You fill my heart with happiness, Then hide behind walls of love. ⸻
