I Wanna

A soulful love poem by Maya, for Different Truths.

I wanna
kick up the heels! 

I wanna
have full moon nights
with You
my love. 

I wanna
have
some soul-stirring music 
singing lullaby
to us. 

I wanna
flower
and ripple
with the virgour of passion. 

I wanna
have crackling bonfires. 

Solitary walks. 

Long drives. 

Gypsy discovered within. 

I wanna be 
swaying to the song, 
of my soul-
the 
flowing stream kind. 

For, 
roaming, 
in the bewitching woods, 
called life, 
is, 
an essential part, 
of my being.
