I lie here, so far
From the stars above,
Where my hopes harboured,
I lie here, so far,
From my home, my world
Where my soul resides.
And I lie here, so far
Away from all.

I belong from a city,
Too small for you all.
And somewhere there in a corner,
You'll find my heavenly abode.
The lights must have went off soon,
A little sooner today.
With hearts fill of worries,
They too must have been missing sleep,
Like me.
I lie here, so far
In a city of million dreams,
Where I'm in an endless search of hiding myself.
Of lights that never go off here,
I still have my dark space,
A little lesser than my heart I would say,
For light isn't allowed inside my heart today.

I left home, leaving behind all.
My heart that cries every now and then,
But miles that stretch long, between us,
Might erase our love of ages, I fear.
But I forgot,
No harm is greater than a harm of a human to another.
And so they could change our words and play with our minds too.
I pity them, poor souls.

I lie here, so far.
Away from all.
I could walk away, further more.
I could walk away so far,
To never come back home.
I could,
If my brother, my little heart wouldn't have waited,
For me.
How would he be made understood, when I'm gone?
That I walked away, for a reason too small?
For humans?

I wish,
I could stand strong in the strongest of winds,
To roar after the storm ends,
To awake every human mind of sleep,
To make them know,
"Love is a virtue,The purest of all,
Not a sin, my dear all".
