I miss the words I left behind
Archived in old books
If I had given it a thought
I would have hung them in the cloud
Rather than be discarded with obsolete things
Today I touched the sky
I soar with eagles
Heard the sun sing melodies
As I danced with the stars

Insanity you call it?
It's a new dawn of happiness
My chest no longer heavy
My heart light like a feather
I decided to let my worries go
Have let grudges die.
I've chosen love over anger, bitterness and hatred
And for the first time in my life,
I know what it means to be free.
Looking back what a great transformation
I searched for company but found none
I waited but gratitude never came
I became a ladder to lift others
But none held my hand

I envy my kindness and empathy towards you
But am glad I treat you like myself.
You inspired us,
To follow a cause bigger than ourselves,
To make a difference beyond our own lives,
And to understand what it means to be selfless.

Thanks to you, yes you who's asking who,
For showing that it's never about us,
But others.
Wanderer, I keep on roaming in life.
With certainty and uncertainty.
With purpose and sometimes aimlessly forging ahead.
Like a rocket shooting to my destiny,
And other times like a drunkard staggering to keep on moving.
All I know this road filled with mountains and valleys,
The bittersweet path on which I travel,
Will one day lead me where I need to be.
And perhaps when I look back and connect the dots,
It will all make sense to me.
A wanderer in my own journey of life.
I say it many times,
For the people close to me to hear.
Developed a habit of doing
The little things that are priceless.
To let them know how much I love them.
Hoping they'll remember it
When am bitter and unbearable.
Hear the magic words
When I forget to mention it.
And feel my love for them
When am far.
