Karu's Requiem II


As the hunt of bareness will soon increase again
And times of yore shall blind our minds that failed
For we shall ask 'what have become of us?'
Because not long for sure our paths will cross again;
We have traveled boundless journeys,
But never came a way that will leave us astray;
They witnessed how two planes crash and burn,
But never did they saw why our hearts long to stay;
Was it a simple notion of fate?
Of how the bridge of chance has been built,
Of how red apples fall into the ground as set,
Of how bemused emotions turned into gray;
Irrelevant enterprises heave your body's strength
Flowing rain have cleansed your hearts that wearing thin
Numerous nights have conquered your soul's pain
For these were all in the same manner of hanging on with nil
And when it all comes back to the souring end
Unconsciously, you will find yourself at the very same bend;
The moments of great denials have come to the grave,
And the only shadow that binds us leaves us no regret,
True, time consumes the fire within
And depart our core with freezing veins
Yet, we are still..
Could it be another twist of fate?
Could it be another lack of faith?
Discerning what had come our way,
Bleeding but trying to nurse the pain,
Bleeding but still wanting to go on this mean,
Bleeding and yet still wanting..
Tell me this isn't the last time we'll be writing,
Tell me we have come here to wait for that spring
Say a word or three, and break the silence we have long endured,
Say something that will unlock everything;
For what destiny brings forth, we'll always be the same, always we'll remain..
And if you cannot use you heart nor eyes to navigate that page again
I'll offer mine though it can feel no longer pain
For your smile will be my only ticket to heaven
Until then..
