Shadows couldn't cover
Fears dropped me nearly down
Tough I said
Tougher I see
...

Thorns shook me to bleed
Winter harmattan failed to dry the flow
Endlessly I felt battered
Newer each day
...

PART 1:

An angel
With a blue eye
...

Sleeping walking
Empty I look
Though I live
Yet i am dead
...

Speak ye loud
Oh man of freedom
Speak thee clearly
Oh man of life
...

WHAT IF I DIE?
One person will confirm
Many will wail
Many will mourn
...

How hard we sail
Deep into the ocean
Joined for a common goal
Pass we separate direction
...

How dark the noon?
Noon like sunset
Not even a notice
Inadequately prepared
...

Lined in plain
Dressed up with linen
Surrounded by touches
Touch of lessons
...

Desperate consoler
I have seen your effort
Before you pity me
Pity your cloudy sky
...

Why have you treated me thus!
Why! My fate
My tears flows in surplus
Despite living in faith
...

Dove you are but cruel
Sour my heart became
Adding you to my fire fuel
Even when I adore your beam
...

At the mention of thy name
Every soul must rejoice
At the sight of thy flame
All expectations must rise
...

Like enemies
Like foes
Like I am a cat
And you a rat
...

Story! Story! Story!
I want to tell a story
Story story story
Once upon a time
...

Knives!
Blades!
Just for a joyful feelings
The household in fear
...

Intentions were imbalanced
Life taught me hard
Emotions are easily changed
My heart taught me hard
...

Lo and behold
What we longed to see
Lo and behold
What we fought to see
...

what we dreamt of
our home booming
surplus we learned of
our land fully glooming
...

lying still on my cold plain
motionless I am under my blanket
pain alone it is to step out
my hands tied to my sofa
...
