Time That Heals
Cold numb sensation running through the veins,
Piercing tender touch of nomadic winds
Felling-less pulsating rhythm,
Cunning pain creeping in my soul
You think there are hands to catch you
When you fall into the pinnacle of abyss,
No-one, no-more, exalting tantrums - please
Gaiety of foolishness, caught in the sea of dust.
Slow synchronic passage of time,
Gather me in your arms, take me away
Far away from the reach of science.
Hold me, tenderly and I shut my eyes
To see the world devoid of stinging hurt.
Did I disappoint you daddy?
Was I not good enough the way I’m?
Why do you have to leave so soon?
So here I stand the shallow embodiment,
Shattered mirror, wet with tears,
Do you hate so much me daddy?
Time, take me away, far far away,
To a land where I slumber in peace,
To a land that is free of disease,
To a land where tears taste sweet.
