Is it worth the time to wait out in the open just to be disappointed
Or
To hold onto something for a little while
What's it like then, if I lay hold of love only to have a better view and not let go
In the end, I still find no joy
If only I stood by the edge and found hope
I wouldn't wait more with urge to pen down these thoughts but rather step out of the dark to have a glimpse of light that comes with this valuable tressure
Mystery though one I wish to explore
Like a stranger in your home
worse than walking in a storm
If it's not your place,
you'll stay but never belong...
Sad or happy,
some stories
didn't deserve
to end. Ours
was one of
them.
I've counted sheep, twisted and rolled
as I lie awake by nature being trolled
Looking for a place where sleep is sold
anything I'd do to slumber in this cold
take me to a place where stories are told
not only to the Young, but also to the old
of fairytales and treasure like ruby and gold
to lure Morpheus out his heavenly fold...
I need a break for this world feels like hell
anybody knows anyone with sleep for sale?
Sometimes it's gentle
and at times a hurricane
sometimes it dismantles
or a breeze in the plain...
You just feel it
and can hardly explain...
Like Wind
A fallen leaf in autumn
a golden tulip in spring...
Even the napkins that wiped the tears
can't really measure the depth of my melancholy since I cried even after
the tears were dry and even more
when I learnt to smile through it.
