Sigulanon

The hours spent is not lost
Coz you talk kind;
Removing my angst and fear
I kept to hold my tears;
I am in search of myself
And you told me it takes time
Every step is a stage towards your dream
It's a step, it's a stage
Of recovery; of conquering the beast within
Within your heart there is something
Loses, achievements, sadness of joy
But what is important is that---
You are not only the person,
the only one inflected;
the reason behind the burden in life
is for us to search meanings;
Meanings so elusive like a puzzle unsolved.
A puzzle---not locked in dungeon
Waiting to be opened and be known;
Many tried to search for the key
yet it was gone long before they held it in their hands;
They failed! But the search is not over
it only started where it began
the key is in the heart;
the heart who knows everything
can feel, can touch, can move
But where is the heart?
