The Rhythms Inside

A Letter for You

Yesterday before you bid goodbye

There's no moment for me to cry

Rests were only pauses in between

To the sweetness felt and seen

As the clock ticked too many

Footprints were too far already

Heart couldn't touch anymore

The valentine you said before

Shouts of longing became whisper

Wounds inside became tearless grief

In silence, a solemn prayer

Begging the healing wonder

The picture of you in my mind

Flashes of our kiss and bliss

Thought it will be the crack of doom

Being free from the curse of gloom

The crows became dove already

Void inside were never empty

Roars of thunder found the blue sky

For the heavy rain was too dry

The cobweb may not hear its voice

To explore that life is a choice

Then smoke will just say from afar:

Finally, I am in content

I've had you once in my verve

Too strong that changed the beat of my nerve
