LIKE

Like flowers that bloom and look lovely in the sun,

Like you, who I've known so long, always there forever,

Like you, lost your hair but no matter it will grow again,

Like me, same as I always was, don't I know that guy?

Like travelled so far, from good old America to Africa,

Like when you put foot down and did one hundred mph,

Like the time when the snake dropped on your bonnet,

Like I prised the jaws apart and saw love for you and I,

Like we paraglided and went to heaven in a pea green boat,

Like sweet grass jelly that took you away on a summer day,

Like your favourite place in Langkawi on a warm evening,

Like cares went, forgotten, in the depths of your lovely smile,

Like dancing, a skip, back heel, hands held towards the sky.
