Out of nowhere you
came.
Out of nothing I felt
something.
Your voice sounds
innocent as a child.
And you know what?
It captured my heart.
This sounds crazy,
isn’t it?
We talked only for
hours
And strangers truly we
are.
Would you believe if I
say
You tickled my heart?
I’ve created features
of you in my illusion.
And associate traits of
you through my confusion.
I picture you handsome
and kind
But miserable I became
When you uttered that a
space
In your heart was
already occupied.
Right after the moment
we talked,
I asked question that
has been unanswered.
“What is this invisible
thing in my life that I look at?”
“What is this
incomprehensible thing that I find hard to understand?”
Am I talking about
love?
Or simply day dreaming?
Call me a fool, stupid
or weird
For easily loving
someone unfamiliar to me.
A fool lover you may
call me
Coz I felt this crazy
thing the first time.
For saying that I held
you
But through my fantasy.
In this tranquility of
night allow me to share how I feel.
Open your ears, listen…
And I’ll tell you that…
May be because it is
how gentle you speak
That you’ve beaten my
weary heart.
May be because it is
how sincere your words reflect that you’ve made my lonely heart smile.
Maybe because it is
through your hidden charm that made me almost escape reality
And almost stop the
pain
For you start playing
the music that once captured my heart.
Truly I have no regrets
When I took the chance
Of spending time
Conversing with you.
Though in very short
span of time,
I know I have a lot to
thank you
Coz you “yourself”
became love who touched my soul
And keep it from
understanding that
Love is the greatest
gift of all.
