The Ruins of My Dreamland

My hopes are seeping through my fingers like dry sands
My love has broken the cage of my heart like a parrot
And she is flying away to somewhere else

All my sweet plans are being shattered
By the storms of disappointments
My mind has become heavier than earth
I am carrying it on my shoulders

I am walking through the ruins of my dreamland
I am sailing on the sea of tears in search of an island
I am flying in the sky of sorrow like a migratory bird

An annimated ride through your unrequited mind! Liked the way you combined the natural sphere with human emotions.
