I launched my thoughts,
into a sea of frustration.
It swirled
in the fabric of life.
and consumed me slowly.
I fell into the
endless darkness.
I froze over,
but stood still,
in the crowded spaces,
like a fish without water.
And then,
I battled again to form words and verses.
Tears began to stream down my cheeks.
I had been supressed my emotions,
just to enter,
another ordinary day
Look,
Nobody is certain, why,
there is an immense quietness sometimes
and immense anguish on the other side...
Nothing has never been planned
Life goes on
across the infinite blank sky.
