One Cloud Away

it was always one cloud away what do you do when everyway is the right way what do you do when everyway is the wrong way i used to know now i don't know which way to go I'm on a race only the slow wins staring eyes and thighs marked with resting thunderstruck chins between the wannabees and the hasbeens the joker's makeup cracks and grins one has to be deeply shallow , to miss beauty packing down south to the marrow now it's time for spiritual eyeliners to masquerade the sorrow my tomorrow promised me a smile to borrow my piper subconsciously dropped his flute life is a beautiful dantelle scenery to pollute my wisdom , a pack of pearls ravishing the curves , the silhouette of her memory a collage of lame loose endings unquenchable scenery forms our silver lining gallery what a waste what a waste when you eat but can't taste when a whole lifetime slowly slips in haste a ladder and bench how romantic the subtitles are in french between the word and the noise it all lies on the make up, it all lies on the illusionary poise Tamer Hossam
