I didn't intend to write a poem, especially on a night when you know you have a Chemistry test the next day. But when a thought and feeling comes together, even as a person who doesn't really fancy much of poetry or the abstract, possibilities do exist. So here goes a little humble poem of mine, specially thought and written for my loved ones. Be blessed!

Distance Is How Far Your Heart Sees

Everybody say life is like a game

The start and the end is all the same

But I choose to think otherwise

That the end is just a mere disguise

Of the beginning that we step forth

Not an edge but a path that we set off

Thank you Lord for Your amazing Love

Everlasting, unconditional and all that's worth

My family, my friends and oh, people so dear

You are precious, to me, can you hear?

May you find strength to brave through every storm

For you know heartaches are meant to transform

The person in you that makes you whole

So beautiful, so delightful and perfectly bold.
