Heart Restart
lying under the stars, my head rests on this pleated roof
I stare and stare for hours until my eyes finally find rest
but before that time comes, I smile at the sky up above
and hope to feel the same way…if the next night comes by
it’s so simple but…maybe too simple for one to enjoy
but I cannot help that these unworldy-world things enchant me
appreciating life...through appreciating its siblings;
the sky, heavens, and the world surrounding me
because I cannot forget
that maybe after I close these eyes
…I may not rise
…to say this again
but that’s alright ‘cause my soul’s forever warm
and my voice will return
…someday
but do not shed too many tears
…for those near and dear
…who are now gone
because when you see them again
won’t you want to reunite
…smiling?
It’s okay to take a breath
…and give your heart a rest
…for this short while
this life may not be for too long
but the next one goes forever on
listen to my voice (listen to my voice)
‘cause God can restart your heart
