Reflections

Strange isn’t it

For a man to think

How should he behave

When in love

Matters of the heart

They say it is

But he who feels

Knows it’s a nomad path

For love is a sword

Her power is the words

That may fill the heart and soul

With happy moments

Then pierces and destroys

Anything that was joy

With no mercy for the wounded boy

Why do I have to wonder

If it ’s love I feel

For you my sweet dear

Without letting myself fall under

The pressure of fulfilling my dream

To find a friend

A companion, a lover

Is there an end

To the way I suffer

Should I keep looking, searching

Or should I just let go

And yet follow the flow

“Sans Souci” for my sorrow

How strange it is

At my age to see

That all alone I stay

Without a purpose for a better day

What does a man need in this life

Food in his stomach

Clothes on his back

And all alone he can walk towards the light

Knowing that only death can take him apart

From love to death

What else is left

Only the sorrow of the soul

Waiting for the spirit to show

But without an answer to his prayer

He, all alone follows the path of the warrior

Not knowing what awaits

For the chance of success is slim

So no matter what you do

My friend, always

Remember, that me too

I am searching for the way

To achieve the purpose

Look around my friend

Ain’t no need to be sorry

Be happy and don’t worry

That’s the key to a wonderful end.
