私のお気に入り - YOU




The belief that could restore the world


Picture credit : Davis Adrain


And then a small voice nudged him from inside,
while she stood there in front of him.
and it seemed her light would fill his world and banish the Dark he'd known for so long.
Pierce his weary heart, and allow him to feel.

Yet
he resisted, resolute,
not daring yet to dream.

"I will not be good for you," he said.

"No," she replied,

and held out her hand. "But maybe I will be good for you.

It Was You


Turn away. Go escape
 find your relief
As you indulge yourself
In your reasons of make believe

Yes, Hide. Avoid.
Sure, Stay out of sight 
Convince yourself with whatever it takes
To get you through the night.  

Walk. In fact, Run. 
To greener pastures across.
Dont pause . Don't look back .
To see your damage caused.

Abstain. To sustain. 
That stubbornness. This charade.
Disregard who it maims.
Continue your high horse parade.

I promise.
Wont ask no questions
for the scars you are mounting
What I don't promise.
 Is forgiveness 
For every blow, but who's counting. 

And when I'm asked who caused this.
I'll take your blame too
But you will know what was the remedy.
It was you.
It was  you.
It was you

Two little words that hold a world of promise.

And then

Two little words that seem to me as a prelude. A precursor to something wonderful. Like a swift, surprising transition.
From nothing to everything.

And then

And then..  there it was.. Tucked inside his pocket, a few wads of unexpected money. Lying there, waiting innocuously, to be found in case of an emergency such as exactly this.

And then.. her feeble hands softly twitched around his....and she blinked her heavily sedated eyes open to meet his. 

And then.. the phone rang, to tell her that everything she had given up... 
had been worth it.

And then.. the light pierced through the forbidden sky 
and the rain stopped falling.

And then.., she said,"I Do""

And then, his terse lips broke into a broad smile.

And then.. I met you.
