Just I Need You

give not me the flowers, the fragrance
give not me the flying birds poetic canvas
give not me the shining palette of the rising sun
give not me the eloping dusk of chirping birds
give not me the warmth kisses on the eve light
give not me the rosy beds on the moonlit night

I wanted you, your breaths, your nerves, your hearts in me
I wanted your presence not only in happiness but also in sorrow
I wanted you in the scorching summer as well as flowery spring
I wanted you in the withering pale yellow leaves as well as sprouting plants 
I wanted your words in my words like the holy verse of God
I wanted your companionship like the rose and its aroma 

but now for the sake of good life you left me alone
for the sake of good earning and surviving you've gone 
for the sake of ephemeral happiness you are in difficulties doom

no, I no need your happiness, no need your heaven
no need your Eden garden, no need you smiling sun and moon
no need the peaceful flying pigeons, no need to live for good life
I need you, yes, I need you very much 
I need your presence in my heart every single moment
