MY JOY

 MY JOY

You ring the bell of life
Which keeps me high
And makes my day bright

You are a gentle reminder
To the feelings in my under
Which imprisons my anger

I’ve not seen a genius
Years without number
Like you in this world
Life is lonely in a crowded room
Without you
Your arrival
Is the perfect timing of the world

I’ll give you the very last of me
Drink till I dry up
And nothing in me left
For your pleasure is my treasure
Which I’ll never measure
With the measure of the world

If heaven was a smile
I would have entered
Time and time again
Because everyday
My senses parade to worship
The handsome look you wake with

My day never dries
Even if my wallet dies
Your gentle steps
Fill me with riches
