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
