Blessing in disguise.


Sitting on the bus, yawning to get awake, looking out too the window… The streets were rather quite. There are fewer cars. Sign of school kids was no where to be seen. The university was rather deserted. Then, I remembered. Today is the day where the locals visit the cemetery.

Calm. Bright. Bluish sky, rather cold and windy. *hurdled both hands into my jacket to get some comfort.* Staring nowhere… my mind went blank unconciously. I idled. Idling… Felt some emptiness and missing something… *a morning syndrome?*

… … … Slowly, the melody flowed in my mind genteelly, softly.

Walk blindly to the light and reach out for his hand
Don’t ask any questions and don’t try to understand
Open up your mind and then open up your heart
And you will see that you and me aren’t very far apart

‘Cause I believe that love is the answer
I believe that love will find the way

Violence is spread world wide and there are families on the street
And we sell drugs to children now oh why can’t we just see
That all we do is eliminate our future with the things we do today
But money is our incentive now so that makes it okay

But I believe that love is the answer
I believe that love will find the way
I believe I believe I believe I believe that love is the answer
I believe that love will find the way

I’ve been seeing Lisa now for a little over a year
She said she’s never been so happy but Lisa lives in fear
That one day daddy’s gonna find out she’s in love
With a nigger from the streets
Oh how he would lose it then but she’s still here with me
‘Cause she believes that love will see it through
And one day he’ll understand
And he’ll see me as a person not just a black man

‘Cause I believe that love is the answer
I believe that love will find the way
I believe I believe I believe I believe that love is the answer
I believe that love will find the way
Love will find the way
Love will find the way
Love will find the way
Please love find the way
Please love find the way


… I related and I found smile. Just a normal day with blessing in disguise. *smile*
