Ask my feet,
how much they longed for you?
The endless running around
& the throbbing soles....
Ask my back,
how much it longed for you?
The erratic hours of standing
& the nibble moments of rest.....
Ask my head,
how much it longed for you?
The mounting heaps of tension
& the stinging aches.....
Ask my eyes,
How much they longed for you?
The painful wait as days passed by
& the yearning tears after each failure.....
But above all....
Ask my heart,
how much it longed for you?
The empty cries as you proved hard to come
& the wrath as my soul lost its purpose.....
Oh, my dear success,
to achieve you
I have sacrificed my own self....
