When Love Leaves, What Blooms Within?
When he doesn't love you, Start working hard to love yourself. When the world is full of noise, Just go back to your own world first.

Bridges of Light
The shadows lengthen, darkness falls, Echoing through fragmented walls. I pray to God, what breaks the span That links one human heart to man?

I hear the whispers of the breeze, A gentle rhythm, meant to please. I wonder, God, when strife will fade, And harmony will be remade.

The Freed Consciousness

Can We Truly Embrace the Inevitable Dance of Time?
Time requires you to let wrinkles form on your face together with natural white hair develop on your head. Time continues its passage unceasingly and it keeps moving along the timeline of everyone without exception. Keep your mind open to natural occurrences because you should release all feelings of resistance. Your countenance will not endure time's effects because it must represent all life's happiness and grief.

"Whispers in the Blooming Field"
In fields where roses gently sway, My heart finds peace in your sweet way. Like morning sun through misty air, Your love is warmth beyond compare.
