Do Not Seek Too Far

We seek out the moon for guidance In love and war; as our ideal alliance We seek out the stars for inspirations The best and worst; through all occasions We seek out the clouds for creativity From air to sea, it is all about, relativity We seek out the sun for warmth and grace To enhance, peace and glory to the human race We seek out the heavens for solutions For the sake of justice and retributions We seek out love in far off places But love breathes in our hearts and lives in our faces By: Wilbert Evangelista Dela Cruz

Yes, but when I said love lives in our faces I don't mean it literally as in physical features but in rather how we project love into existence, pure joy kind of thing, transcendent...
