They said,
Listen with your ear
So you could hear it clear.

They said,
Listen with your heart
So you could feel it deep.

But nobody said,
Listen with your soul
So you could hear the truth.

"The sun dazzling above the morning sky with cotton clouds overlaying its bright from time to time. Cool winter breeze kissed my cheek as I walk along the street. I looked from afar with you on my mind – feeling your presence, your hand holding mine."

We start out full of optimism, the vision
of what we desire to accomplish; that's
why people love beginnings, they are
promising.

However what comes after are mostly
things we did not expect, for we were
blinded with such conviction.

And now we have to face the predicament
of reality, the ultimate challenge of
humanity; that the world is rather not
what we want it to be.

You let me into your soul with a kiss
so soft. Moments gone without a word,
yet you spoke of love like it was true.

With every kiss sings a melody to wake
my silent heart. Each key growing
louder in hopes that I may sing it too.

But I closed my eyes to hide my empty
soul. Perhaps a way to guard my own,
never to be stabbed in the game of two.

Sitting side by side in a night so young
Your scent filled the evening air,
With a blend of citrus and vanilla to bear
In your chest I'd love to cling and hold
you dear.

Conversations of yesterday we've shared
With a frown or laughter at your jest
Oblivious to the passing of time, it is the
dead of night.

In the wilderness there I stared
Our blossoming infatuation put to rest,
You held me close with farewells so long
Feeling your warmth until the break of dawn.

And I caught a glimpse of familiar faces
       amongst the crowd,
Their countenance full of joy and excitement;
My feet began to stride of their own accord
       leaving my consciousness behind,
They welcomed me with warm caresses and
       of pecks so affectionate;
For many a time I stayed in a foreign land
       O my dear God!
You have blessed me, I am home at last!
