A face of happy amongst the taunts

A drama set in the fabric of time

All seems lost for hope is gone

A quiet night all alone

Smiles soon fade in the dark

A summer rain falls in the park

Alone for a moment to think

A chance to finally speak

To ponder the questions

Of why they fight so

Who is the chosen one

And who deems it so

A simple life is all that's required

Yet no one can bring him this peace

In the Land of the Rising sun

War like water flows long

Accusations of guilt

A punishment undue

A price too great

But nothing can undo

The right to be free is unknown

Quiet moments are few

One's life for one's art

This too tares him apart

How much is a ear to lesson

While beauty is wasted about

Strong ego's abound here

Love true is no drought

Ladies in waiting

A groom unsure

Rivals attacking

All alone in the Zoo

A soft hand lays close

The hearts skips a beat

The women of wonder

She too cannot sleep

Un-cute on the outside

But true beauty within

She sits down beside him

He gets a grin

They talk about yesterday

Of what is to come

The she drifts to sleep

He sighs with relief

Wet and cold

He finds his way home

With her in his arms

He is not alone

He watches over her

As he lays her to bed

Then closing the door

Now he has no dread

A smile appears

A song in the dark

A moment of truth

Final love spark
