Have you ever?

Have you ever?

Have you ever felt the urge to weep?
And smiled the next moment
Because a fair presence crossed your path

Have you ever woken up
With a wonderful breeze brushing past your face
Bathed in glorious sunshine your whole self is
And the whole world around infused in joyful song

Have you ever felt the warmth seeping throughout your body
From the core of your heart
Euphoria which you could never have known about

Have you ever felt the need to become a better person
To search within yourself and discover your truth
The overpowering desire to prove that you are worthy of her
And yet be appreciated for who you are
And not what you want to be.

Have you ever traveled the silent road
Trembling with every step
Dragging yourself as if you are Atlas himself
While she lightly danced beside you.

Have you ever sunk to the depths of a bottomless abyss
Surrounded by ruin and devastation
Ripped apart with guilt and self-pity
And yet dared to climb out of your misery
Because you heard a single voice call out to you

Have you ever ignored the deepest sorrow you could have come across?
Or treasure the tiniest ray of hope you could have seen
When her palm rests lightly on yours
Have you ever experienced love?
