Earth Bound


Never before have you looked so beautiful,
With the soft wind blowing your hair,
Radiating the confidence of a young sunrise;
Your presence was all I wanted,
All that I wished for, like everlasting love;
I have found you and I have found your heart,
As we walk together, hand in hand,
Towards a happy beginning but a sad end,
I only wish I die, with you beside me.
Slowly but surely it will come to an end,
When all the moments, the joy will dissolve,
The memories and timeframes linger more,
The light will slowly start to fade out,
All sadness and struggle will wither away;
The cracks deepen as it grows downwards,
All but the strongest is left standing,
Somehow I feel the same way,
As happiness survives, pain fades away,
I am at peace for now, for the moment,
This moment, the present, the time is right,
We are dancing with the waves of the rising tide,
Romancing the light of the solitary moon,
Floating with the green of the leaves and land,
Where contentment and pleasure merge,
Inside the frontiers of reality;
The earth is my heaven,
The azure bliss my home,
Here the beauty of life and existence is pure,
It flows in me till the day I die,
That is where we are inseparable;
Together we are but not forever,
Because I would not be there at your last,
But now that you think of it, maybe I will,
Do not worry about me though,
I have learnt how to live after life,
Nothing is inevitable if we do not want it to,
Words and ideas can wake up even the dead,
I am the force of life,
But like all life forms, earth bound,
Bound, like in life and death we are.

Be Strong... (A Tribute To A Deceased Friend)


When I do not open my eyes tomorrow,
May the hearts of none be filled with sorrow;
As the rising waves finally engulf me,
And I return to the earth and sea,
Tell my mother I tried my best,
That I've just gone awhile to rest.
Dissolve the pain now that we're apart,
As I leave the strings that tied our heart,
From my end alone, do hold on your side,
And help me live forever in your life.
I forgive you all; I hope you do the same,
And tell everyone to remember my name;
For no pain can remain now, no guilt or wrong,
And with that joy of drifting I say - 'so long',
For one last time to all I've known,
I request you all always be strong,
As I had till my last breath shown...
