standing in the dark alleys of life,
when i gaze up at the sky,
i see nothing but vast stretches of red.......
my lovely ,blue sky,
which a while ago was bright with divinity,
is now overcast with clouds of grief,
raining blood.............
the earth beneath has cracked open at places,
revealing the skeletons of the past.
and from them like spirits,rise memories which had long ago been forgotten.
it has stopped raining now.
but when i look behind, i find no one.
i'm all alone.
and loneliness,like a dark shadow, follows behind.
my ears,crave to hear a familiar voice,calling out my name.
and i hear none, but my own sob.
i've lost my own ones.......
