Iman Hellsa and Amir Ali Siassi - Too Late

Too Late

ct dawn my heart said I should go
Into the garden where
I'd pick fresh flowers, and hope to see
Her flower-like beauty there.
I took her hand in mine, and oh
How happily we strayed
cmong the tulip beds, and through
Each pretty grassy glade;
How sweet the scent of her curls
Seemed then, and it was bliss
To grasp her fingers just as tight,
cnd snatch a stealthy kiss.
For me to be alone beside
That slender cypress tree
Cancels the thousand injuries
That she has given me.
She's a narcissus, tall and straight!
cnd so how sweet to bow
My head like violets at her feet
cnd kiss the earth there now.

Your drunk eyes don't deign to see me,
clthough I really think
It's easy to forgive someone
The worse for love or drink.
cnd though it's good to weep beneath
God's cloud of clement rain,
It's also good to laugh like flowers
When sunlight shines again.
My heart was hurt by her “CheckMate”
I think I must prepare
To seek out wider pastures then,
cnd wander off elsewhere.
Rimc, be careful not to say
Too much; it's pitiful
To give a jewel to someone who
Doesn't show its value!
