We came together,
To rebuild from the pieces,
Left after the storm.

Every sunrise brings an opportunity,
Every sunset a sense of well being,
For I have conquered another day,
The trail I leave behind on this world,
Is but a sum of my actions,
Through joy of being cared for,
Through suffering loss of dear ones,
Through pain of of love,
I grow compassionate towards fellow humans,
Everyone has their story,
We all share this bundle of emotions,
I love you not for some casual cause,
I love you, because of what you bring to my world.

Happiness, contentment, peace,
They are all but petty,
When I am dying,
Drowned in the void
Left by you
When you stole my heart.

I wish it would mean something to you,
When I say you are the best thing to happen to me.

Thank you for holding my hand, else I'd get lost.

The light breeze brushing the skin,
Eyes staring out the window at nothing,
The hum of the city that is a hum no more,
The ears escaped to seek sounds of shores,
There is no noise in the thoughts that came,
A remark on the irony of time is made,
The pictures are old, faces in them are young,
A wonder as to whom those faces now belong,
As the piano plays the eyes see a montage,
Tears find their way across a cheek,
Echoes heard from memories gone,
Wishes are made to return to the past.
Today will be a memory again,
May be full of hope, or of regret,
Arms searching to hold them,
Hands wanting to make the future,
The mind a fallen leader with wisdom.
Happiness is sought, had less often,
Some understood it was not to be found,
But accepted.

We should be together because,
It took six billion years,
And a lot of violence,
To get to here, to us.
