If you are my soul's familiar friend
My words aren't passing without remark
When you think you’re all alone in the dark
Troubled by who arrives and who departs
Sadden by the emptiness once was filled
And now seems like a vacant place
When you devoted your heart for love
Why worry about the unfilled space?
When you think you’re imprisoned behind the walls
Everywhere you go seems like a closed door
When love breath in the Heart
And the Heart is the Gate to the soul
When you hold the Key
Why worry about the locked doors?
When you feel the weeds of self-doubts
Growing strong in the garden of your mind
Questioning the meaning of your prolonged trip
Longing to reach the far away Reality-Shore
Drained from sailing in your dream boat
When patience and hope are your means for transport
Why worry about reaching the seaport?
When you speak to me of your fear
Your heart streaming unseen tear
I say, " Don’t be afraid my dear
I am your family, your kin who’s near, "
Your silent words I hear
When this tone is familiar to your ear
The meaning becomes so clear
Recognizing your own relative's voice
Your soul's familiar friend
The truthful of this friendship
Awakens the heart with delight
This pleasure bears witness, rightly prove
Binding the souls in silken thread, hard to remove
