Keep on dreaming

A  lollipop.   A teddy bear.

A swatch watch

You keep me happy.

You gave me plenty

Five thousand pesos

Ten thousand kisses

Three long-stemmed roses…

You were my man

My master,

My dream,

My world.

When can we meet?

You say,  “Tomorrow my dear”

I beg

I stole

I borrowed

Yet you can’t say no.

Nor could you let go.

Your mark tattooed on my thigh

more valuable than the Olympic Gold Medal

more eternal than my human soul

that’s the love you gave

Yeah, that’s what you say

Keep on dreaming.
