Grain of Dust

The poem is about sorrow and sadness.

 

 

 

Let me relieve in the swings of slumber, Let my heart melt

Let the secrets of life sparkle and let them mock me again

Soul is addicted to pain so much, can't live without it

Like opiate, it shows me joy and delight, never seen before

Stretches my breath to endless hills with its cruel arms

And deceives my heart to yearnings of long, blissful life

 

 

Like candle I weep and shed my pearls to rivers and seas

Like flowers I lose my petals and wilt into an ugly seed

Like a lonely moon I breathe and hum on a starless sky

Like rocks I am hurled, rolled and withered away

But lashes of life ruthless for this unworthy ember

No glamour, glow or strength at all

 

Being trampled under feet of fate, a life I never wanted

Wondering if the words of peace do really exist

Smiles staring from clouds and cliffs to never let

Their rains and rivers embrace their unfulfilled promises

A huge hole dug in my heart as sorrow's shelter

Homeless, destitute where should this vagrant go
