winding roads

If it took so long, a century at most
a few years or less
would I still fall in love with you?

If winding roads flew off the map
sent me to forests
got me lost
would I still end up in your arms?

If all the sky fell as snow
and nothing would be left for the birds…
If all the grounds swallowed itself whole
and nothing would be left for anyone…
would I have a chance to see you?

If it took a lifetime or two
falling through someone else’s heart
would I still end up meeting you?

Beloved soul who seeks me in dreams,
is this truly enough?
wouldn’t a real warm embrace
make this lifetime
-a life full of bitterness
sweeter and more meaningful?
