Love is what you feel
When a person you treasure
And of losing, you fear
Is not closeby.
You keep it out of mind
But it's there
No matter how hard you try
The small things
You took for granted
Have left
Now you’re on the brink of a tear
It could be a glance
That your heart yearns for
Or a gentle voice
That your mind want to hear
A sight, a taste, a touch,
And when its gone
You miss it so much
It's not like you can't control it
Or it cant control you
It's a question
Which asks
If that person
Loves you too

As twilight draws into the evening
The dawn into the day
To look to each other
And know it will all be okay

A promise of the future
How brightly it shines
Even the trials that were caused
By these compromising times

Something to look back upon
“Look at what we survived”
Surely there is nothing
That can be denied

The physical bonds of earth
They no longer hold
Never again
Feel the sting of the cold

May you leave the ground

And fly together

What you were searching for

You have already found

Surely there must be a reason
That we must bear this bitter season.
The proud bowed down,
The happy did frown,
Because of this great treason.
Fate decided we need a lesson.
He took one of our best,
Distinguished from the rest,
Because there is no place here for perfection.

In each other it is comfort we seek
The strong are helping the weak.
Your absence is bringing us closer.
Your departure made us meek.

In spite of this unpleasant pain
Your ability to sketch a smile
(Even in one’s greatest trial)
Made me stop to grin a while.

The whole season it did not rain,
Until Fate’s day,
The day of realisation

He who had taken, had also given
Although it was meagre compensation

Look into your heart
Only you know what it tells
The more time spent together
Driven into the arms of someone else

Intentions, that are not easy to see
By no fault of yours
Learning now that 1 plus 1 is in fact 3

Recalling the distant spark, the beginning
Compared to what it's turned out to be
The road to be taken
Remains to be seen

Reflection remains or whatever it allows
Replaced by regret of the heres and the nows

Whatever was taken or given or kept
Can surely be prevented
By failing to neglect
