Analysis of Between You and Me



To the wind I have entrusted
my uprising desire of you
that stays inside me
to let it blow smoothly your way.

To the sun I have deputized
my blazing desire of you
that is like a flame burning greedily
a bunch of dry twigs to brighten your day.

To my visualization I have flung
my million of deep feelings of you
to be engraved in clouds hanging in the sky
in a string of meaningfully worded beads for you to know.

To your dreams I have sent
my relentless, romantic sweet talk
to make our love thread in our hearts
that you knit become real.
