1987

What's in my mind I cannot explain  


But what it is it feels  


much pain  


The world is familiar but yet so broad  


It can cover time and space with just a nod  


A wall of tears which stands about  


cannot with all its powers block it out  


Confusion comes so many times  


What happened was not her crime  


A vast of blackness, I cannot see  


What happened to the world of thee.  


Cannot see, don’t want to know the pain it brings from long ago.
