Frayed

Info

It is not everyday for me

That someone knocks my door

Brilliant guests : birds and breeze

Him? Better, for sure

Life is not always like a dream

All good like cookie and cream

I just know, I lost this one

My maze, his smile had undone

For long, I was stoned

Like eternal waterfall

That kept on flowing

No end at all

As if we're in a cave,

Dark and deep

No ears to hear

When hearts would weep

Taking turns, elsewhere

Decided to a be fallow

Waiting for a time

A better tomorrow

Something got better

Out of that cave

In the world of realists

Out of my grave

Now I stand at the cliff

Telling stories of the past

Alone and frayed

Counting to the last

And its eternal I know

For we never really die

I tell them I will be back

None has to cry

I have felt the love

And the cold of a heart

So much more though, left

To see as I depart

But I am not leaving

Never to be gone

I will see you by the coast

In the orange of the dawn.

After falling into the ditch of confusions, you need to know that it is only you who can get you out
