if love is a wild bird, <br />then i must be a cliff or a rock <br />far away from the trees, <br />where the wild bird <br />builds its nest, <br />i must be an unknown forest <br />where the eggs are hidden <br />where the hatching is done <br /> <br />without even my knowing. <br /> <br />if love is a wild bird <br />beyond the grasp of my twigs <br /> <br />then i must be the night that hovers <br />on its wings <br /> <br />and stays also wildly on its dreams<br /><br />RIC S.
