Lost

Here I lost in a midst Of darkest sky; the plane I rested therein carry me into the dark cloudiness, where It all of a sudden vanished. My soul deluges with haste like the rain falling from the blossomless sky. The stars that are to rescue me are brittle; throw at me their dimples smile You-----you engulfed my smile with your absorbing heart as leaves engulfed in the months of hottest sunshine. Your warmth vows pore upon me icicles. Here I bury my head, hope you see me, hope you see me in amidst of abyssal lake Originated from my eyes. I am sinking I am sinking.

Lost in emotional pain, as everything looks dark and hopeless. Very expressive, Afolabi! But not all is lost....watch out for the lifeline! // paul
