My Most Solemn Vow
Each rise and fall of the sun
Each turn and bend of the road
I travel, walk and run
Carrying with me a burden that woke
Me up from my restless sleep, and
I want to cry out
Shout loud
Till my voice echo
Resoundingly clear even
A thousand years hence
O, human kind
Grace me your attention now
To what I have to say
See with your heart
My pitiful painful plight
Listen with your soul
Hear me out now
My most solemn vow
That always will I be faithful
To what is pure and true
And nothing else will ever do
And only that will ever do.
P/S: Again, this was written during one of my ‘moment of truth’ that I experienced in KMB following a certain tragedy involving a dear friend. With me, nothing will ever be adequately expressed when spoken, except that I need it to be recorded and written. It was painful back then, but looking back, that was one of the most treasured phase of my life.
