...

walking through the darkness alone
there is a universe I've known
shiny stars and beautiful sights
rainbows I miss, amidst misty eyes, fading lights

It wasn't that the universe crashed
Its the eyes I miss, to see the same
of what pain, and broken trust
I wish, I wish, I wish Time had frozen
no springs in desert
no tears in heaven
Yet we chase springs in the desert
and theorise about tears in heaven

Fallen down, broken, and shattered
hope shimmers, spirit battered
Yet, the universe spins it course
pain, love and faith - never ending , their discourse

walking through the darkness alone
there is a universe I've known
shiny stars and beautiful sights
shooting stars, wishes I make amidst frights

wading in darkness, a step at a time
little innocuous one I am, before the great expanse, and the might one
I bow in defeat, I bow in shame, next time
Thy will be done, oh my Mighty one

Love, where are you?
Must lose the You, to get the “I”
You get the I, don't loose the “you”
Else, you will be all alone as “I”

walking through the darkness alone
there is a universe I've known
shiny stars and beautiful sights
rainbows I miss, amidst misty eyes, fading lights
