My Secret
All I see is sadness,
Unfairness and loneliness.
And the saddest song
Ever sung, I heard.
When I’m dead and buried,
My loneliness will end.
But the unfairness around,
That, will never end.
The woman I left behind,
Will wait in the unlived place.
Her smile as the sun,
Will warm my cold heart.
I wait, surrounded by flesh,
She waits, with my ancestors.
Along with my brothers above,
She waits my homecoming.
Though to death I race on,
My earthly friends ever remembered
But home is where lies the heart,
My heart is torn far from here.
