ESSENCE

I shall perish, I shall fade
But not before I bring that sparkling glow
Not before your smiles I see flow
Not before I place in your eyes my love’s essence
Not before I .........

You can go as far as you wish
You can ignore every foot prints, if you please
And run perhaps will you from
Every mirror that shows my glimpse.
But can you??
Not before I place in your eyes my love’s essence
Not before I .........
There’s a river down the freeway
You can take a dip anyway
But can your soul quench its thirst
Can it feel the jest and make merry like a lark?
You ask, “Who are you? Forget I shall soon”
But can you?
Not before I place in your eyes my love’s essence
Not before I .........
You have seen perhaps every glory, every dream
Every step you took to succeed
Yet, you know there’s a void which remains to be filled.
You know there’s darkness, you fight everyday to live
But can you?
Not before I place in your eyes my loves essence
Not before I .........
