Then I Cry

Searching white streaks in sullen clouds
thousand thoughts clutter an empty mind
cry of seagulls drown in wave of sighs 
torments a lonely soul, in sad eyes

An elegant spring day  lost in vapid heart
embosoms  a winter night, too cold for me
a blanket of misty memory on icy tears
torments a lonely soul, in sad eyes

Crashes a landslide of melancholy rocks  
cannibal guilt tears in twinges of pain
within half peeled layers of numb skin
torments a lonely soul, in sad eyes

 Longing warmth of love, a wildfire burns 
 charcoal ash  remains, in a cobweb corner
 "Give up all dreams", howls a blinded sight
  torments a lonely soul,  in sad eyes
  
 I reach the edge of a mountain,
 a lurid stream flows down to sea,
 and in bitter briny breeze, I live for everyone.
 Only my lonely soul , I miss...
 and  in comfort of my sad eyes,  then I cry
