WHEN LOVE BREATHES!

Innocent souls, a meeting with lovely goals.

Innocent souls, a bond so warm as unrefined coals.

Innocent souls, a unity of hearts so beautiful like the nicest of dolls.

Gazing were the eyes, that met blazing emotions.

Scarce were words, to express a bond so deep than the strike of swords.

Moments became memories but glories couldn’t be shadowed by persistent worries.

Of the animosities that befalls sincere love, it breathes no matter how deep it’s buried.

Little was the physical might to match the enemies fight.

Yet stronger was the love to live beyond what the enemy could ponder.

Time flies away with many cries we make.

But the cry of separation we can never manage to fake.

For no matter how far the body runs away the shadow of love is always with us.

So anytime love breathes, we live what it dreams❤️❤️❤️

HOW WE WERE!

image

Silence! What to say and what not to say
At crossroads with love and duty
Heavier the words that lips can’t break
Of what forces couldn’t unmake
For it seed is deeply in the roots of love
And so it comes back to “How we were”

Distance! How far or how close
We fight as long as we live
Even if it demands all we need to give
For what was stolen must be return
And we relent not as our passion burn
So we crave to be forever “How we were”

Balance! What to hold and what to let go
Hotter than the coal but my love was bold
Strangers we became but the feeling never cold
Matters with gravity keep pulling us down
But I always remember “How we were”

Patience! When to act and when not to
Rains of spite to show the enemies might
Follow is their wish till we get in the hollow
But like blood the feeling lingers in the marrow
So no matter how narrow the road
We find our way back to “How we were”

Fragrance! How long it stays or fast it goes
Stench of victimization so strong
And stronger it tforce might break
Yet the scent of love lasts long
And how bad the wounds it will heal
So in its smell we reminisce “How we were”
