The Legend of Liengmakaw...
In the chronicles of my solitude you shall
Forever remain a mysterious alphabet etched
In the heart of darkness; a saga of
Tantalizing deception. Some say, you are
Merely a forgotten melody played by
A lonesome shepherd boy in the misty meadows;
But the whispering bamboo groves swaying
In a sea of moonbeam Lend credence
To magic of the legend that refuses to die and
Each night you share my breath with
The fragrance of the jasmine...
