On Distant Shores
A feeling that's always mystified you,
Love was a word seldom spoken or heard.
Feeling loved wasn't a feeling that you knew
growing up: the whole concept seemed absurd.
Yet poets say it's a magical word,
embedded in the tune of a songbird.
In dreams, love awaits you on distant shores,
and you wonder if such dreams could come true.
And consider signing up for singles' tours,
moving on with life, trying something new.
Just pack your suitcase, bid this town adieu,
and for once, do something solely for you.
Following your heart in pursuit of dreams,
your chance for happiness, is on the line.
It's time to say goodbye to silent screams
and seek out love's intimate telltale sign.
Trust in fate, and let hope be your guideline:
ignite passion's flame, and let it shine.
Spending nights alone leaves you feeling blue,
hoping your soulmate is looking for you.
