Make a poem to you

Journey to us


Do not know how long it will take

But I believe that one day, I will see you

I will no longer passively wait as I used to

Not only because I am getting older 

But because I am also wiser

And will not settle down until I found you


You are all that I long for - 

An understanding, a connection, a long-lasting

I stand here with an effort, a hope and a resilience

You deserve all of my dedication 

And you are worth the wait

To enter my heart, simple but secret

In short, you should work harder than me

Invest more and strive beyond me

Only then I will see you standing where I am


Finding you is not different principle as all thing in my life

Everything worthwhile must be learned and earned

Valuable things take time with consistent striving

But I will not leave myself eventually

My happiness and well-being come first

Do not tell me I am selfish

It is your choice and my decision

For I strongly believe this is how love works


I  carry a pure, simple and sensitive heart and mind

But you will not know my strength until you see it

You may wonder what I bring to the table

Let us unfold it gradually

Just as I will uncover the depths of you.

#4. (Translated from a Vietnamese song)

Dù là cơn mơ băng giá

Dù đợi chờ là nỗi xót xa

Dù tình chỉ là mong manh

Bờ môi còn khao khát chờ

---

Even if it's a frozen dream

Even if waiting is painful

Even if love is fragile

I am still longing to wait

A girl likes winter. It reveals herself

I like winter. Is that so strange and weird to you? I like winter when I was just a little kid. I had no idea at that time but I did know I like the atmosphere during winter. I love we all family members gathered in the warm stove. I like how we tried to make us hot. I like to wear thick jackets, wool hat, scarf and socks. I love Christmas and Lunar New year coming soon in the winter. Having said that, I give a truly special feeling for winter season. Liking winter still exist wherever I go. I studied Bachelor in HoChiMinh City far from my hometown and there is no winter in this place. I felt there must be something missing here and it was true. I miss my hometown and miss the cool air in the winter. It's rare for me to see someone claim that their favorite season in the year is winter. I can tell winter is my favorite. I like the air, the atmosphere. I like to see all people put on their jacket and scarf in the street. Everything seems closer together than ever. A book mention abo...

>>>>>Lyrics<<<<<<< I only wanted to have fun Learning to fly, learning to run I let my heart decide the way When I was young Deep down, I must have always known That this would be inevitable To earn my stripes, I'd have to pay And bare my soul I know I'm not the only one Who regrets the things they've done Sometimes I just feel it's only me Who can't stand the reflection that they see I wish I could live a little more Look up to the sky, not just the floor I feel like my life is flashing by And all I can do is watch and cry I miss the air, I miss my friends I miss my mother, I miss it when Life was a party to be thrown But that was a million years ago When I walk around all of the streets Where I grew up and found my feet They can't look me in the eye It's like they're scared of me I try to think of things to say Like a joke or a memory But they don't recognize me now In the light of day I ...
