Sweet affection prowling
Like a guile tigress
In the hunting ground
Of thought
I wait for you
Whose eyes have not befallen
False beauty, outer deception
You, a heart so fragile
Would you break
If I held you
In these arms?
When I gaze
Into that sincere face
Listen to the untainted
Melody of your voice
Yearn
To guard you, protect you
From the malice of this world
Purge all your anguish
Banish your sorrows
See you smile
Just for me,
The Selfish
The Greed
Can you accept this wish
This love?
When all you know
Is the beast, the hunter
And not
The prey within
To you?
