It felt like the wind seized and i couldn’t breath      I wandered lonely as the stars which are beyond reach      When all at once i saw a thousand horses      Racing towards me all looking like ambassadors of death        My heart racing like tigers chasing a prey     I closed my eyes to find peace     Rather i heard whispers of death     I am screaming but my voice is without sound     Fear in my heart grew like weeds in a fertile ground    My soul wandered out of my body    My eyes lost sight due to fear of what’s coming    At this moment I am like the desolate sun   I try to think of heaven and hell   I tried to ascend and live in paradise with angels   My feet as stagnant as deep roots In flashes came the life i have lived, filled with kisses i will miss I see myself as a child again The sweet taste of my mother’s breast became sour in seconds Luck will race faster than these horses i believed Pray for me i screamed to my soul which is now far away Come to my rescue i told my guardian angel If he dare comes here i hope he gives his life in place of mine In a second i prayed to all the gods there is to be I believed in heaven i believed in hell   I lift my eyes and behold eagles I believed and prayed to them too Hoping they could bless me with wings Void in the heart filled with fears and doubts I sent my thoughts soaring to my maker In a minute i have drifted in the streams of this world Bound by chains of self-beliefs and self-doubts Faith and self-belief raining out the skies I commanded these horses to stop I couldn't imagine another life Waves of darkness made me understand I am a god.

Hidden potential
It felt like the wind seized and i couldn’t breath      I wandered lonely as the stars which are beyond reach      When all at once i saw a thousand horses      Racing towards me all looking like ambassadors of death        My heart racing like tigers chasing a prey     I closed my eyes to find peace     Rather i heard whispers of death     I am screaming but my voice is without sound     Fear in my heart grew like weeds in a fertile ground    My soul wandered out of my body    My eyes lost sight due to fear of what’s coming    At this moment I am like the desolate sun   I try to think of heaven and hell   I tried to ascend and live in paradise with angels   My feet as stagnant as deep roots In flashes came the life i have lived, filled with kisses i will miss I see myself as a child again The sweet taste of my mother’s breast became sour in seconds Luck will race faster than these horses i believed Pray for me i screamed to my soul which is now far away Come to my rescue i told my guardian angel If he dare comes here i hope he gives his life in place of mine In a second i prayed to all the gods there is to be I believed in heaven i believed in hell   I lift my eyes and behold eagles I believed and prayed to them too Hoping they could bless me with wings Void in the heart filled with fears and doubts I sent my thoughts soaring to my maker In a minute i have drifted in the streams of this world Bound by chains of self-beliefs and self-doubts Faith and self-belief raining out the skies I commanded these horses to stop I couldn't imagine another life Waves of darkness made me understand I am a god.
