My Sonata of Love

It was the day when I heard songs again

though the melody all seemed stark and plain.

It was the day when my soul changed;

how quick it was, I surely cannot gauge.

Was it perfect timing the moment you came,

when my being suddenly faced a different game?

I haven’t seen you, yet I strongly felt you;

in silent words, you eagerly came to my rescue.

You chased me as if I was your everything;

and all in this world for you was nothing.

Oh, how I gracefully bear the fondness you offered,

yet taken for granted that made you greatly suffered.

It was overwhelming and undeniably consuming;

but my nature wasn’t truthfully submitting.

You raced as if I was worth pursuing;

you didn’t halt until I finally gave in.

Rejecting I was, I probed questions;

demanded answers that insist my versions.

Was it real? I cried in agony;

yearning it was not the existing reality.

I knew you can tell what I was going through,

that when I asked for distance, you said, “You grow.”

I searched myself and discovered things my own;

but ruthless misery is what I only sown.

I learned to be still and calm myself;

in my heart I found you, I completely melt.

I plea candidly for your hallowed consecration

to be bestowed upon my entire generation.

I put you first and myself as last

and found exceeding joys in my adversity cries.

I held on tight when the push became hard,

looked up on you, I knew you’re on guard.

I said, “I trust you and my hope is in you.”

I said, “I want you to help me through and through.”

And my heart fills with abundant love;

I believe it comes from heaven above.

When “I love you” is within my grasp,

“I love you too”, I wanna say back.
