Chased a shadow
Like you were chasing a butterfly,
Under the scorching heat of the sun.
Flew with the wind,
To the world of no pain and sorrow.
I looked at you in awe.
Then I asked, what are you feeling and who are you thinking?
Nothing!
Slipped fast through your mouth,
Then flashed a smile.
I saw my face reflecting in your eyes.
I realized,
True essence of nothing is everything.
Diwata in Lalaland 
This is beautiful!
