Enigmatic Lifetime

The stars above are as beautiful as you, love That, I know of The heavens above are pure and peaceful as doves, love That is where I long to rove Nightfall is as gracious as your eyes that shine high above That is where I set my mind always, my love My heart soars so bright as a hawk in the sky above That is where I remain inspired and free, my love Where is your love when I need it most? Is it beyond the mountains and the coast? Where is your love when I want it most? Has it vanished like the seas and deserts’ ghost? Where have our true love shared gone? I couldn’t compare it to the wisest and mysterious of forest-dwelling owls I couldn’t compare it to a morning’s run I couldn’t compare it to the precious, burning rose or the wolf’s unique howls Feel free to stare at my universe eyes - There, you’ll find the truth behind the lies Feel free to weigh out the pendulums of our lives and what’s left of it There, you’ll find enigmas of bizarre imagination, sparkling alit If anything, I’m apologetic For acting pathetic and perplexed you to the core If everything, forgive me please Set you and I at ease and quit acting like disturbed bees In their hives of busied lives I’m sorry I let my guard down I’m really sorry I had let you down I’m sorry I have to wear this frown I’m watching the time fly up in this town I’m sorry I let my guard down I’m really sorry I had to leave you speechless and breathless Upon the cold ground of your devastating demise I’m really down and about, so bring me up from my abyss Sunshine, I wish you could simply undim my eyes The clouds above are as beautiful as you, love That, I know of The sunshine below is reflecting upon your oceans of delight, my love That, I know of That’s where I rove The moonlight in the surface of this well we’re in is shimmering anew, my dear That, I do not fear... For God is near The enigmatic system Will be brought low By His heavenly Kingdom That, I will soon know That He loves us, despite our tribulant downfalls That He lives in us and answers our righteous calls Who can say otherwise? The truth behind the lies Will never conceal our stories of a strenuous, yet genius journey to the greater, infinite and meaningful afterlife It’s the peace behind the strife that we aim to look forward to all our life
