As I stroll halfheartedly
Down the dusty, dirt road,
Suddenly, out of nowhere..

Whiffs of Jasmine
Softly drifts in the breeze,
Whispering secrets

The ones that I never spoke
Caressing slumbered stories,
Under that lonely old oak.

And when I got off track
On the dusty, dirt road,
My feet went way back

To the roots that cradled me
Where I buried half of my heart,
Once, under our old oak tree.

Aimlessly staring at the same skies
Sitting on the swing, I breathed in
The coolness, crispness of the night.

Thousands of floating lights, this view,
Wishing back, those days when I was
Spending endless nights with you.

But here I am alone, swinging
Only rekindled by mingled memories,
Of that vaguely familiar diffusing..

Whiffs of Jasmine
Now, slowly, fading away
And with my secrets buried,
For just another day.
