Missing In Action (M.I.A.)
Missing in Action (M.I.A.)
 
 Particularly today, I longed to fall in love.
 But I could not fall in love without committing a sin.
 The sun was merry with the clouds,
 the grass whispered secrets to his lover, the rose,
 and they both giggled, almost as if in a show.
 Is there no love for me? Even concrete buildings
 hug slim alleys. The flower pot is visited by the wind,
 and to the waves, fish wave their fin.
 I have no lover to gaze fondly on, though my eyes are ready!
 I have no lover to douse with gifts, none to trust steady,
 and while every lover sings of their pleasant other,
 I simply wait to be discovered.
