Her eyes burn beautiful truth in my heart 
which gives me strength to look beyond all lies 
while I wait long under patient pine tree 
and pine with longing to see her again 
though rain drenches my spirit with desire 
so I learn to live in my body now. 

Her eyes burn immortal stars in my heart 
which pulse electric energy of love 
as threads of light that spiral in my cells 
on flashing wings of passionate desire 
delicate as the butterfly of faith 
who helps me to live in my body now. 

Her eyes burn arrogant waves in my heart 
which swirl as blood in my spiritual veins 
with timeless melody of vibrant thoughts 
since I see no stars in black sky tonight 
except those gleaming in my memory 
though I want to live in my body now. 

Her eyes burn fantastic wings in my heart 
which vibrate with embodiment of hope 
since I aspire to transcend maze of myths 
through leap of faith across abyss of fear 
till I transform into the me I am 
if I hope to live in my body now. 

Her eyes burn mysterious birds in my heart 
which unveil baffling puzzle of my mind 
designed by dreams my ancestors performed 
through intense experience of their hope 
in struggle to survive against blind death 
that teach me to live in my body now. 

Her eyes burn perplexing myths in my heart 
which frame how I perceive this complex world 
to organize random events I play 
in grand narrative of truth I compose 
in vain attempt to explain how I strive 
when I try to live in my body now. 

Her eyes burn unsettling weird in my heart 
which beguiles my receptive attitude 
with glamorous visions in garden of fruit 
to believe in paradise we invent 
that shelters our souls from the hostile world 
yet I think to live in my body now. 

Her eyes burn singular grace in my heart 
which wakes my soul with perspicacity 
of keen insight that measures unseen vibes 
when I adjudicate erudite passion 
to claim inalienable right to exist 
when I choose to live in my body now.
