I was walking along a lonely path..
With the autumn thick in the air..
Walking on a fiery red path of leaves..
Strewn like my thoughts, my feelings..
And the trees stand tall and majestic..
Towering over me, adding to the loneliness..
I was walking alone in the cold air..
The clouds casting a gloomy light..
I wrap my arms around myself..
Trying in vain, oh in utter vain..
To ward the cold off, to feel the warmth..
The wind slaps my face, the cold seeping through..
And then the gloomy clouds break..
Releasing forth a hundred thousand drops..
Of cold, bone chilling rain and hail..
I’m drenched in the rain, drowning in pain
..
I stand thus, freezing and shivering when
A hand comes and grasps mine..
Holding me close and giving me the warmth..
An angel comes and whispers in my ears..
Whispering words of courage, words of immortality..
You give me hope, give my heart faith..
With a kiss, you give me the warmth
And light which cast the gloom away..
And even if I live a thousand lifetimes
I wouldn’t be able to give you back the warmth and the love..
For it was not my ears into which you whispered, but my heart..
And it was not my lips you kissed but my soul..
