Kingdoms: No. 2, Life Unfiltered

In Castel San Giovanni, by a hospital wall,

A man played for his sweetheart, confined to its floors.

In that precious hour, theirs was a tale that inspires,

Transcending time and desire.

The heart craves the wonder

Of being loved by another. To exist in their eyes,

Without filter or guise.

To be free of all armour

And yet find oneself stronger;

Is a state of existence,

Without boundary or limits.

In this age of alteration,

few will come as they are.

Thoughts are often borrowed, trends dictating their mark.

With the flick of a finger, passion is summoned,

But love’s not so easily beckoned.

When life takes a bend, in times of distress,

There are those who will offer a shoulder to rest.

In those fragile hours, theirs is a service unhindered,

Transcending creed and divisions.

The heart craves the wonder

Of being loved by another. To exist in their eyes,

Without filter or guise.

To be free of all armour

And yet find oneself stronger;

Is a state of existence,

Without boundary or limits.

In Castel San Giovanni, by a hospital wall,

A man played for his sweetheart, confined to its floors.
