Darkie Me Shy
Can she see
the beryl words I keep
hidden inside?
Precious words I want to say,
but I’m too
darkie me shy
I cover my cocoon feelings
with an awkward “hi”
Whenever she Madame butterfly
passes by
I love how she gives me
a bright smile
with her beautiful eyes
Makes jade heart
no want to be
so darkie me shy
Oh, how I love
her candlelight eyes
They shine forest green,
at dawn sunrise
This lovely morning,
I overheard her name
for the first time ...
Today, me going to tell her mine
And hope that our lives
can become
as one Divine
Oh, how I love
her halo radiant eyes
They glow sky emerald
in the evening twilight
Going to let her see
the tears of joy
kept bottled up inside
Shower her with love ...
give a kimono kiss no goodbye
Rainbow light
every evergreen lantern
in Tokyo tonight
Watch the glowing teardrops
brighten the harbor sky
Let her see the Sol fire passion
when doves cry
Then there be no aurora soul
reason why
to stay darkie me shy
