CRYING HEART
As water secretes even through concrete
From this crying heart, I have no retreat
Drops of tears falling on the inside
Facial expression I cannot hide
 
Time is certainly stealing apace
In this game of love, I have lost the race
Contemplating the beauty of reciprocal love
Without it, there is no resolve
 
For everyone is there really a soul-mate?
Or is this an enigma to propitiate,
So many loved ones are departing this world
Only my faith keeps me brave and bold
 
Be your years many or few
Life passes like the morning dew,
Perhaps true peace will only come
When from this earth we are gone!

What is life really about? Travel East, West, North or South, incomprehensible it is, and that is without a doubt!
