This world is made of dangers,
Uncertainties that each of us must face.
From the wombs of our mothers,
The path we must take is set from that day on.
God’s book of life is signed with our name,
What from now shall pass into the nexus,
And who shall see the black of day.
Wither the flow of a nightingale’s flight;
Blasting an undoubting hour
To the beats of a hot summers afternoon.
To understand love,
You must have it—
Holding tight every waking moment,
Don’t let it go,
Or will it flower somewhere new,
Beyond the reach of my hands.
Can you see the broken image within,
You dream of clouds and sands of white,
In the open pool,
Her cool heart lies—
Among cherry blossom trees
Newly fallen from springtime’s dreams.
This is her retreat,
The world she keeps in her mind.
What I wish to be?
Does not work for me,
I've lost that trust that makes me great in time...
Now that you have been near me,
A friend as you will—
Can your heart beat with mine
And trust what men fear to be?
Tomorrow’s day and yesterday’s night,
Hath’ blown me from my mount
And darkened the skies of a prosperous man.
Where nothing has lived before—
Many a ways have come to this place
And my heart has died in transition.
My dream begins to fade—
Hopes and desires slowly drop away.
As my emotion sets in, a glimmer of sight
Returns to my restful eye.
Jaded paths rise and fall,
Winding round mountains of emerald gold.
When was the last time,
You thought about love—
And what it meant to you?
Does its meaning hold endearing thoughts,
To that sweet mind of yours.
Whenever I think,
Whenever I dream of destiny—
In desperate time nations shall call out,
As their people die, within the borders of pain—
Watch as their lives fade
Into dust as a blind man begins to see.
What shall you want from me,
In this place of death
Torn between two I feel
One who loves me for me,
And the other I cannot stop my feelings for
In this moment of sadness, I feel torn,
Between the gracious reality
And the darkness of fiction.
