What does the cat purr in your ear?

 

 

Big Dreams Small Expectations

 

 

 

She was fragile and petit,

Too tiny for her age,

She was an unearthly creature,

She was a paradise bird,

She sang when she talked,

Her reproachful glances responded,

To my innocent childish rut,

She had a foxy smile,

The details I don’t remember,

The only thing I remember,

She had a strange aura,

It made a lot of fuss,

Now when my eyes are closed,

She surely looked exactly like you,

You that I saw in your childhood photos,

Long-legged, with a slightly big mouth,

With radiant cat walking eyes,

I know that  my description like everything now don’t make any sense to us,

All boys love girls like her,

Next to the girls of her kind,

It was easy to grow up,

To feel a real man growing in your heart,

Loving her was stupid and foolish,

I loved and suffered because of my doom,

I dreamt about the situation that we could be alone,

 Everything was under construction,

I had an action plan,

My action plan was short of action,

It didn’t say ‘if’ but ‘when finally we are alone’,

  I didn’t really know,

What was supposed to happen when,

I fantasized that I was a hero,

I was a knight from the planet of Hearts,

I landed on Earth,

It was infested with giants and evil,

My mission was she the queen,

Though I had a short action plan,

It was loneliness of a knight in armour,

It had lost its sunshine,

I came to change the course of my and her story,

The course of history could wait for me,

But it wasn’t concern of mine,

I approached my goal taking random directions,

I had no army, no horse, no sword,

I walked the longest distance,

I crossed borders at night,

In the shadow of a huge and abandoned by life asteroid,

I was her desolate and never lost satellite,  

I didn’t have pages and vassals,

To make my armour shiny again,

It  was in rusty despair,

It needed to be polished,

For this reason I needed my five minutes of fame.
