PARDON ME:

Pardon me if I take sips from your iced cold lips,

To remind me of what love is, before life lets slip,

Pardon me, for I´m but a tiny drop of morning dew,

Clinging to your soft silken petal on this day anew.

Pardon me if I take refuge within your fronded arms,

Reminding me, I too belonged to dawn’s dewy charms,

Pardon me please, for I am just a small & tiny little drop,

Who will disappear & die when the sun above gets hot.

Pardon me for taking liberties on this brand new day,

But my life is so short & I have to go soon & far away,

Pardon my impertinence & for my meddling presence,

I only hope I can repay you with sweet aurora´s essence.

Pardon me for staying with you, for just a very short time,

But my fate is in God´s hands & certainly not within mine,

Pardon me, for I´m no more than a little dawn dew drop,

And I´m damned if I stay, but also very damned if I cannot.
