A Thousand Years

How long a heart can hold a space
a thousand years without a trace
till time reveals the hidden flame
universe hails a treasured name

As far as the northern stars can fly
as bright as the sun can testify
as deep as a blue sea's trough can lay
as sincere as an archangel can pray

When seasons leave no sight to see
this world mourns the lost landscape
there still I thinking of thee
deep inside where dreams escape

Hi SKAT, thank you very much for the warm welcome! I will surely enjoy this site. I'm a software engineer from Indonesia, but I always love writing since 18 years ago, even before I became a software engineer. Glad to have a new friend. Hugs for you too :)
