Submerging myself with water of wistfulness
Trying to be rid of the loneliness in progress
I missed going outside and swimming in a precious, pure water
I’m looking above the surface instead of the ugliness of underwater

Today is...

The Battle For Betterment

To fight off such adversity and selfishness
And to save other souls that you owe not to?

A little further away from the deserted car park 
Underneath the third tree with...

Darkness in Her Dungeon
 
 
 
 
 
No morning no bright sun
 
Just nuns all around
 
To recite bright light

A black bundle in swirl
 
A hostile world looming
 
All conspiring...
