void in the eyes,
staring in the skies
sorrow laden heart
howls and cries
detachment to life
don't want love or fame
i don't give a damn
about my existence
all seems lost
taken,broken or tossed
hiding myself from winds
in shadow of crumbling walls
waited all my life
wandering in this desert
quenching my thirst with tears
mending the cracked skin with mud
no matter how much i try
can't seem to satisfy
my aspirations and ambitions
have i taken it too high?
yes! i would like to die
but this demeaning death would defy
my struggles,my pains,my strive
for excellence,and pain stricken smile...
