Rays of light ripping the clouds apart
I sense a storm coming ...
The day is now grey
Heavy, dark clouds fill the skies above!
Thunders and lightning
Striking me hard...
Harsh words whispered through the winds...
Stabs in my heart, hurting me deeply...
Waves of showers cleansing my body,
Sadness and emptiness!
The day becomes night
The light becomes darkness
The smile becomes faintness...
I crouch scared by the rumbling of the thunders
I hide my face between my hands,
Not to see the lightning!...
Shadows all around me
A dim figure I see in this blurred day
I stretch my hand to reach it,
But it fades away as smoke in the air ...
Voices murmuring behind the windows
The wind blows fiercely
Hiding myself I am
Trying to protect me from the storm...
Result of my own emotions !
In a state of delusion I am
Lost in the land of nowhere
Wandering alone I found myself!
My bones cracks with the cold rain
Stumbling and falling I keep walking
Lost and without direction on this stormy day!
The streets are empty
No living souls to guide me...
Wandering in this land of nowhere
I dream about blue skies and sunny days
The scent of green grass, the vision of flowers
The giggle of a child, the laugh of a lady
The whisper of a lover...
But, in this land of mine there's a storm ...
Ravaging and striking me without mercy
No pity or kindness for the weak one!
My knees are feeble
I let myself fall to the muddy path
With my hands on the ground
I yell to the rain
And in despair I punch the wet dirt
I cry throatily ... All this in vain!
I see a faded shadow walking towards me
Faceless and shapeless
Just a ghost haunting me
In this stormy dark day ...
I give in!
I can no longer walk
I feel drained ...
I'm freezing cold, chilled to the bones
My eyes feel heavy and tired ...
Thunders are stronger now
Drifting in this land of nowhere
Delusional and in grieve
I let myself be carried away by the winds...
No living beings
No birds or flowers
No sunshine or rainbow
Just mud and rain
Dark clouds in the grey skies above...
Thunders and lightning
Emotionally distressed I am
Stormy feelings
Killing me slowly from inside ...
Wandering in this lost place , I am
Trying to find my role on the stage of life
Trying to find my way back home
Trying to figure out who I really am....
Today I roam through the storm....
