Ev’ry body should
Feel a little bit worthless
Perhaps failure would
Then hurt just a little less

I felt alone
No words could describe how I felt  
Until I met you
Now I no longer know what it's like to feel alone

Her face touches,
the cold glass
window pane

she realizes it's too
late already

looking outside,

at the moving objects
slowly each lined one after
the other

trying to remember
each piece of herself.

She tries to blink,
her tears
away

                          down helplessly,
            searching for  h e r s e l f

at the girl whom,
she sees

staring back.
-
Trying to touch
her,
slowly disappearing
with the moving
objects one
                 at
                 a
                 time

as they slowly
s-n-a-t-c-h,
everything which
she has
had.
-
Her head,
leaning against the
window

breathing softly
murmuring words
to herself

she know's its too
late already

yet,
looking outside
searching for
that girl,
who she herself was
once.
-
there will be tears,
there will be screams
there will be whispers
there will be dreams.

there will be chaos
and there will be confusion
there will be problems,
until you find a solution.

there will be fake;
and there will be real faces
there will be competition
and there will be races.

there will be angels
and there will be devils
there will be practises
and there will be levels.

there is always reality-
and there is always your vision
so don't ever think
that you're trapped in a prison

you might think that
you have no scope
but remember one thing
that there will always be hope .
No matter where on what stage of life you are , remember whenever you are stuck there is always a way out.

"Keep your eyes closed, love. sometimes all you have to listen is to what the sound of the waves tells you to do."

When I was much younger, beaches were my second favorite places. I still love watching waves as they go by, crashing against each other and the whole process repeating all over again.
