On my bended knees

I'm on my bended knees, thanking, and praying for the bridge to come....

I wish I could see how it built, so that I could stack some bricks. Across the strait, I see my dearest brothers and sisters waving -- my dear whom they could always make me calm from fears, my dear whom they could always make me calm in tears.. 

I wish I could see how it built, so that I could prepare myself for the day to come. The Azan calls from the west bank, I'm standing east. The sun rises and my shadow is already there.

I wish I could see how it built, I wish I could see how it built; cuz I see my path laid out after the bridge, cuz I see the little town of my life lit up with every lights, across the strait.

I'm on my bended knees, thanking -- to my brothers and sisters who help me to see, to listen, to perceive, and to pray...

I'm on my bended knees, listening to the fear of letting them down, wishing for a strength to raise myself up, 

I'm on my bended knees, praying, for the bridge to come.... 

~~ to all my best friends ~~

Arifah said...

Salam. Hey there Aiman. I don't know if you still remember me. Kita naik Gunung Dato sama2 dulu. Bloghopped here from kak yus's blog.

Very deep entry, although I'm still guessing the meaning behind the words. Care to share the story? =)

See you around~

fariz said...

Arifah,
Aiman will not share his story... always make you wonder the meaning.. people say that he is mysterious and always want to keep it that way...

But the word "LOVE" is all over his face! Hahahah...

SpidEy d'lEfty said...
