AS ALREADY TIME IS AT A STANDSTILL

As the evening sun was setting

My hands feeling cold, chilly feeling at my heart

 

I am lonely

Like a poppy

Blooming in the countryside all alone

 

I am lonely

Like love me love me not

Something searched in daisies

Always talking about poetry

 

If you think that a door was shut on your face

And if you reason that it would open anyway

Before the snow melts

Have daisies tell my fortune

Before the footsteps of doves disappearing

 

I would come before the rains

I would come before the sun rising again

I would come before daisies awaking

As long as you love me

 

Now it’s time for loving

As already time is at a standstill
