Remember…
You must remember the vast sky
and forgiveness when the blue is fading
in breathing distance of your wet eye lashes
and the frozen dot staring on the wall
is the reminder of flying away
seconds away
holding your frozen heart in hand
waiting for clouds to appear
thirsty of crying on you
Ah…
When tender lips of tomorrow
kiss your thoughts dry and merciless
you must remember the destination
can be reached taking a thousands routes
today, tomorrow, yesterday
this minute, last, to come
You must remember to forgive
but not to forget
to hold on
and let go
to hold hands with the
wind blowing to the end of the earth
taking what’s left and what shall remain
Ah…
The lasting smile
that last smile
You must remember that lasting smile
when the cold skin of rain
spreading on yours
like rain that has never been
