I LONG TO BREATHE YOUR AIR;


i would want everything if only i could
but people tell me
that life is about letting go.
it is about coping with losses,
dealing with disappointment
and sadly, living with regrets.


i just need to find the right direction
and the stars can light the way for me.
if i just follow my heart
i would discover my path, wont i?


but my heart tells me different things all the time
and so does my mind.
i try to keep these thoughts in order
but these emotions,
they haunt me endlessly.
people tell me that it happens to them too
so i suppose it is simply human nature?


and yes, this is life.
nothing too different from a painting
with various strokes and colours.
we live it
like an artist paints it.
we feel it with the pulse of our life.


buried deep inside my heart
is the little girl i used to be
suppress it as i might.
it surfaces now and then.
irresistible - this playful part of me.


as a child, i always wondered
if the trees could hear
what the birds are singing about
or if the sea could feel its waves.
such is the beauty of Mother Nature.
her mystery is her splendour.


i long to see your face,
your smile, your grace.
i want to be close to you.
is your absence making me blue?
i miss your presence,
your every essence,
which pleases me in every way.
i miss you more with each passing day.


your style, debonaire.
