Randomness

(Alton Melvar M. Dapanas)

♫ There was a day / You threw our love away /

Then you passed it to someone new /
You wanna stay / But since you wanna play /
We can finally say we’re through ♫

-- The Wind Blows by The All American Rejects

(When The World Comes Down, 2008)

I
A god I don’t believe in,
A fray for Death’s sake.
An untaken road that’s thin,
A True Love that’s fake.

II
A divine, inhuman Beauty,
A heavenly Smile from the eyes.
A deathless Sonata in memory,
An angel Heaven sent cries.

III
A Voice of a velvet tone,
A plucking of strings.
An unspoken Word I own,
A nightingale in the dark sings.

IV
A Friend that betrayed,
A north Star that glares.
A Choice being made,
An awe in each stare.

V
A meaningless, elusive piece,
A randomness of the mind.
A Lover unpleased,
A truest Love yet to find.
