In your eyes, I saw my life, Blossoming like a fragrant flower, With all its beauty and elegance, Like a queen with all her grace. In your eyes, I saw that flame, Which burnt my eyes to find a way to the heart, The light which brightened my soul, The fire which engulfed me whole. In your eyes, I saw lyrics of a beautiful song, Bringing rain to a deserted heart, A melody, so divine soothing my body and mind, The music which unknotted emotions of all kind. In your eyes, I saw myself, With well guarded walls,protecting myself from another hurt, Scarred and bruised from old deep wounds, Standing tall with my perfectimperfections. -JMJ
A treasure is lost somewhere in deep. Something so valuable that one needs to keep. A treasure is stolen by a wicked witch. How hard have I tried to keep it safe from the breech? A treasure I had to give up because of the sinister disease. Can it be a reason for me to cease? A treasure was taken from me by the people around. Shall I hide myself when they surround? A treasure was vanished behind my wrinkled face. As old I get, should I be in the loneliest place?
At last, I found out how silly I was, To think even that the treasure was, Taken by someone or something from outside, As I found that the treasure was all along inside. I started to give a smile to the mirror, First thing in the morning when no one was nearer, And when I stepped out of the house, I gave a smile to a crying child, Then it occurred to me that this treasure can be shared to someone in need. It made my day as it felt like a bliss, The lost treasure was found on my lips. -JMJ
