Essence..Approximately
Day and Night they lay side-by-side..Ups and Downs past way but they did always provide
Now, I remember so well the fights they had few times
..But the love shared drives one wantin' longer lifelines
Early morn' she awoke to make meals for her love
..Carry on the love thats all I ever ask from above
Now, I remember so well the hardships that flew
..But simplicity expanded itself and sorrows blew
Money never meant a thing for them
..Love and hope is all they cherished from the stem
Now I remember so well times' they keep changin'
..But some moments are meant to stay whilst we all start agin'
Worried thoughts and heavy feelin's of others they bore
..And that's the reason their minds I adore
Now I remember so well why I write these lines
..Sometimes we realize the essence of feelin's when they carve themselves as outlines
