“When things get hard, stop for awhile and look back and see how far you’ve come. Don’t forget how rewarding it is. You are the most beautiful flower, more than anyone else in this world.”

An awkward place to keep company with

A wonderful height as I’ve never been raised

A monstrous place if fall and bleed

A balcony night that I’ve never been

 

Night in the balcony is so sweet

As the soft wind touches me

Like gentle kisses all around

Went to a dream and came to ground

 

The stars twinkle bright to give me light

Stars and fireflies compete as a fight

Moon came giving a lovely sight

Wonderful glorious balcony night

 

The moonlight hugs the trees so tight

I see it from the balcony which is so high

Then that light touched me too

I felt happy as dream come true

Have you ever spend a night on your balcony? Well.... I do. If you haven't, I hope you there not physically but from the heart if you read this.
