Come and have some tea with me
I can talk to you about love
I will tell you how I feel
when I look into your eyes;
I may show you how my heart beats fast
when you walk into the room
and fill it with your presence and your voice;
I will show you the way to my heart
with no restraints and chains,
and I will give you my hand
to rest on your cheek,
my eyes to lighten your way
my heart to watch over you
every hour of the day;
or if you do not wish to talk of love,
I could pretend to be the moon
you gaze at and breathe so deep,
or I can be that friend
that talks to you about the children
about family and the busy life
if that makes you smile
or keep you in comfort;
I could just be silent and watch you
do your ordinary routine
watch every move,
imprint it in my mind;
I just want to drink tea
with you
in a silent warm room
where only you could read my lips
and feel what my eyes want to say
come and let us have some tea
I have missed you so much today.
