Tranquil Storms
Amal Ikhlassi
Living eyes look deep into my soul
Friendship's love replenishes me whole
Tranquil heartbeat with one word's caress
Bruises healed with utmost tenderness
Fears that disappear with just one smile
Purest of intentions, like a child
I cannot comprehend the way you live
The more I take, the more you try to
Are you a rriiracle of God's creation?
A blessing to my life in sweet elation
Laughter rising from my hidden heart
Mystical enchantment by your art
Words that probe the doorbells of my mind
Compelling me to: leave all gates behind
Limitless forgiveness in your arms
Sorcerer without a need for charms
Gentle force that guides me through my pain
Without a word of wounds that you sustain
Impatient for the day I can express
Emotions that I long ago confessed
But in the meantime, we'll keep ourselves warm
In friendship's embrace through this tranquil storm.
