When the pangs of separation
Had taken the heart in desperation
The thought of the finality of being
The first hospitality in the dark
I beat the wall artificial
Fearing the closeness would be so near
Till the next dawn the heart pounds
So used to the sunrise every day

Rain of happiness for the loneliness
Dropping on earth I wish
Shall tap on my door closed forever

With both hands like wings in the air
I flew to the rain for the drops
On my face down to the chest
I held my palms up for the splash
With open eyes I saw the visions
Freedom why not we have in common
Alienated for fear of being soaked
Like the mysterious inaudible notes
My steps toward you were carrying me

Like swans in the dance of love
Rhythm of the tapping sound was like
Angels were speaking in my ears
I was standing in the midst of the crossroad
They thought I had gone to the unself
They thought I was dreaming heaven
