Stranger

I'm walking alone
In dark empty lanes,
Each trace is well-known -
Each belongs to no way.
Here I'm a stranger,
My home is far.
Somewhere my heart waits -
It's right where you are.
Streets meet me with rain,
And cold winds bring just dust.
They know - on this way
There is no one to trust.
I, following my heart,
Try to find the escape
And wonder if you 
Still remember and wait.
Through miles even love
Still can't hear your voice,
I give up to destiny -
There is no choice.
It led me to you once -
It can't be severe
To leave me alone,
Day by day wilting here.
It loathes the fear,
And I destiny trust -
I get on my feet,
Putting back all the shards.
My life is a strife,
But my heart is a flame.
A trial is time,
And a torment - each day.
My life is a strife,
But my love is the strength.
I'll find my true home...
When eternity ends.
