The Bubble

The bubble 

The bubble 

I’m a bubble, a bubble of air;
	Deep in the ocean, fully aware.
Darkness my cover, cold and sad;
	Covering my soul, making me mad.
Who deserves this much loneliness?
	Deep In the darkness of the emptiness.
Months have passed, and years have gone;
	One day I woke up and saw the Sun!
Love, at first sight was indeed.
	You plant your love; I grow the seed.
Darkness turned to beautiful light.
	Colors of sunshine, golden and white.
How blind I was yesterday?
	Not knowing the light of today.
Sweet like the honey breeze at dawn;
        Taste of sunshine, glorious sun.
Love is a gift, a gift of sight;
	It lets you see in the darkest night.
Light is love; love is warm;
	If you have it, trust the storm!

It felt lighter with the warmness of love;
	caused me to fly like a golden dove.
Higher and higher into the cloud,
	Thousands of lovers form a crowd.
Love and sunshine are both complete;
	The heart of this bubble started to beat.
Thousands of bubbles ready to burst;
	Dying from waiting, dying of thirst.
Seeking the source of silver and gold;
	The secret of Love will fully unfold.
If you are dark from the lack of light,
	Remember me, I escaped the night.
Ask and listen to things that are true,
	follow and trust and then pursue.
If I end up in the dark and deep,
	I promise you I don’t think to weep.
Love is a gift, a gift of sight;
	It lets you see in the darkest night.
Love is light, and light is warm.
	If you got it, trust the storm.
