The signal is subtle
We pass just close enough to touch
No questions, no answers
We know by now to say enough
With only simple words
With only subtle turns
The things we feel alone for one another
There is a secret that we keep
I won't sleep if you won't sleep
Because tonight may be the last chance we'll be given
We are compelled to do what we must do
We are compelled to do what we have been forbidden
So I won't sleep if you won't sleep tonight

a very sweet story
Once upon a time there was an island where all the feelings lived; Happiness, Sadness, Knowledge and all the others, including Love.
One day it was announced to all the feelings that the island was going to sink to the bottom of the ocean. So all the feelings prepared their boats to leave.
Love was the only one that stayed. She wanted to preserve the island paradise until the last possible moment.
When the island was almost totally under, Love decided that it was time to leave. She began looking for someone to ask for help. Just then, Richness was passing by in a luxurious boat. Love asked, "Richness, can I come with you on your boat?" Richness answered, "I'm sorry but there is a lot of silver and gold on my boat and there is no room for you anywhere."
Then Love decided to ask Vanity for help who was passing in a beautiful vessel. Love cried out, "Vanity help me please!" Vanity said, "You are all wet and you will ruin my beautiful boat!"
Next, Love saw Sadness passing by. Love said, "Sadness, please let me go with you" but Sadness answered, "Love, I'm sorry, but I need to be alone now."
Then Love saw Happiness and cried out, "Happiness, please take me with you" but Happiness was too overjoyed he did not hear Love calling to him.
Love began to cry. Suddenly, she heard a voice say, "Come Love, I will take you with me." It was an elder.
Love felt so blessed and overjoyed that she forgot to ask the elder his name. When they arrived on land, the elder went his own way. Love realised how much she owed the elder.
Love met up with Knowledge and asked him "Who was it that helped me?" "It was Time," answered Knowledge. "But why did Time help me when no one else would?" asked Love again.
Knowledge smiled and with wisdom and sincerity answered,
"Because only Time is capable of understanding how great Love is." TIME is precious as they say. TIME was something we haven't really gone through much, as yet. it's close to 6 months. and yet, i feel like it's been a year. but i'm not complaining. it just goes to show, TIME, regardless of how long or short, can open up your eyes and heart to realising what's really in front of you, and who really cares for you.
if only you let yourself believe so.
