There are times when we want to be lonely,
to listen to our heart and search for the truth.
There are also times when this lonliness bites
the silence is screaming deep into yourself
but the silence outside is deafning.
The contrast of outside and inside is hard to balance
it requires only firmness and patience.
It becomes so hard to remain what you want to be
with changing times you tend to change but
there is something within yourself that stays forever
the love the hatred may come and go 
but truth within remains so
the forgive and forget may be solution
but for how long is the question.
the situations change people change
the question stay there forever
what you really want, the search goes on for ever and ever.
