Underneath The Sand Poem by Thanura Wijesiriwardena

To everyone who's lost someone they loved...

When you need me,
glimpse across the sky
you'll see my soul
flying without wings
flying among the stars
waiting for your wish...

When a tear soaks your heart
let it fall, drench the soil
and nourish the roots
of our memories,
let them blossom
to a happily ever after...

When dark prevails
the unknown haunts
unwrap the misery
it's a long and winding road
let me be the mirage
that keeps you going on...

Never think you are all alone
when no ones there to hold your hand
sorry if I fall short of the line
I hope you understand
I'm so far away
resting underneath the sand...
