The land is drenched with the pouring rain
But empty and dry, my heart remains
No flowers of love kiss the blue sky
Only weeds of solitude have grown up high.
...
We're a speck in the universe
Just dust among the stars
But our egos are so vast
They make us who we are
...
There's a dark corner in my heart
that has never seen the light of day
It lives in shadows of fear
refusing to come out the other way
...
Lying at the junction
of sand and ocean
Tears swept away
in the rising waves
...
I roamed the world
for inspiration to come
But it wasn't to be found
in the skies and the clouds.
...
An intense ache,
a longing inside me
Not for a dream or person
but to immerse myself
...
It was love that shone from her eyes
Love, that made her look radiant
Love, that kept her so young
Love, the reason for her smile
...
Who has the right to say
that my life was in vain
If adventure and excitement
was not what I gained.
...
Sometimes words escape me
I'm left grappling in my mind
I feel trapped without the means
to express myself.
...
She looked for relationships
in the most unlikeliest of places
With strangers at bus stops
With loners in book shops
...
