a little something - Renata Frolova

Lost in now, lost in work 
struggling through piles of paperwork,
I am growing old faster than dreams are forgotten.
What is there left to please me? 
A little melody
for your full flirty lips to whistle in mischief, 
a little tango 
to tickle my senses, 
a little shiver
to fall from my friend’s shoulders 
for me to pick up and warm her with a hug, 
a little cold breeze in the morning 
to play with my heart and make my face frown, 
a little kiss sent by a loved one all the way from the end of the world…
for me to inhale
and piles of paperwork 
for me to come back to tomorrow
