Something a Philosopher Cannot Conceal

Daniel: From Socrates, Plato, and even Hannah Arendt The stars fell and told me that you are heaven sent So listen to me Denisse Laranang, my dear I cannot sleep lest I say it here Denisse: Just say your word, a word so true Coming from the mouth of a guy like you Be a knight who will not scorn Feel free, like the first of doves in the morn Daniel: My heart beats wildly because of a voice It was like a feeling of buying new toys For it being magical and love is felt Totally, you capture what mind couldn't have dealt Denisse: Is that what a Philosopher ponders? What about love, how I wonder? It flatters me though There is something I also want you to know Daniel: What is that my most beautiful maiden? Is something concealed so that I will hearken? Your existence is my essence Denisse And every second is my thousand years Daniel: A heart never fails though the mind dictates Such a feeling my heart palpitates A feeling I would never conceal That this humble man will certainly kneel Denisse: Such a confession pierced me truly Let me express that my heart is ever ready This moment, you cast all my fright The same way I feel about you my knight
