A gentle song

Written by: Arif Toma

Addressed to: Everyone


As I sit here on this beach,
feeling the Aori sand beneath my feet,
the quiet waves calming my soul,
the chances ive been given seem to arise nevermore,
the path ive taken is not a easy one,
to walk the straight and narrow,
the path is as hard as it is rewarding.

Does my soul yearn for A gentle song,
to nurse my kind soul,
and so i just sit here ont this beach,
now feeling the waves beneath my feet,
listening to the only song i know from my unknown past,
as it repeats through the waves of the sea

a song that came to me,
in one of my shattered dreams,
it calms me, even soothes me,
like A embrace from a past I've never known,
it is A gentle song,
one that can never be changed,
just like the quiet waves calming my soul,

So as i sit here on this beach,
feeling the soft Aori sands beneath my feet,
I feel this incredible calm that can never be forgotten,
as I listen to the waves of the sea,
listening to the song that i learned,
from the past that I will never remember,
but it is a gentle song,
one that I will never forget.


Thank you
Toma
