Why this life?
Why all these friends?
Why, the feeling of love?
Why all these dreams?
Why all these memories?
Why do they always come and go,
Leaving me behind,
Deserting me…
Still, even today…
I see the warm and bright light
That touches the wheat plants turning them gold
That gives the heavenly outline to the mountains
That gives the rivers the elixir of life
That gives the flowers all the happiness
The happiness that makes them smile at me
To keep me company… because I’m alone… all the time…
But still, it makes me weep
When I open my eyes to see that
It was all but, just a dream…
I was ambitious
I wanted to conquer the world
Like a horse without a bridle, I fled
Running after everything
I left everything that stood beside me
I increased pace, not realizing what I was leaving behind
And last I reached the zenith
The top of the world
I looked around and realized
I’ve become nothing, but alone…
I’ve lost my innocence
I’ve lost my happiness
Giving my lips;
An eternal shape of a rainbow; but without its colors
I’ve lost the feeling of love
I’ve lost all my friends
Dreams don’t glitter in my eyes anymore
I’m holding back memories,
But day after another,
They too are leaving me,
Like ashes of burnt paper flying upwards
Lost in my own world, I stroll
To where: I know not
My eyes are turning grey…
Signs of life (too) deserting me..? I Wish..!
