The love that never was
I found you hidden behind your veil, And there was enough light to last a life time.
When the sun faded and darkness fell,
The only light I found was within my heart,
Illuminating the gloomy paths at night,
As I searched for you like a hopeless manic,
Like an aimless traveler on a forgotten road,
Like a lost sailor on a familiar shore,
I searched for you like a rose in a desert,
I searched for you like air under water,
I found you hidden behind your veil,
And there was enough light to last a life time,
Emptiness of the deserts turned to fields of green,
Unforgiving winds surrendered to a gentle breeze,
Months of solitude turned into days of joy,
Years of desolation into a promise of love,
I found myself again
But who would have thought the years of search,
would leave me so blinded,
How could I forget my passion is but my own,
And love is but a struggle of one heart,
It's sweet pitch is music to the ears,
It's call the divine truth from above,
You were in my heart all along,
Naïve was I to think I will be in yours.
