Forlorn

[Devilio]

These dreams I had sown
on the vast and barren meadows,
of my heart forlorn,
ask for provisions I fail to provide.
They are lying right before my eyes,
bleeding and begging,
for someone to take them up,
embrace and nourish them.
But to ressurect those dreams,
is itself a dream that dies,
as soon as it is born in me.
The cold blue water of the sea of sorrow,
beholds me so tightly as if it feels lonely too,
It takes me in its wavy arms,
throws me up fervidly and sinks me down,
with even greater intensity.
My eyes and their shine is dimming,
just as a candle that has lost,
too much of wax withers away in air,
and leaves only traces of what once,
was glowing and lighting up other's eyes.
There was a heart which believed everything said,
everything that I could see,
My words are crippling along with my thoughts,
Welcome just another year- of unfruitful hope.
