The shadow of emptiness

[Guest guest]

everyday you collect sands

on the shore of your life.

yet, they are not sands indeed,

they are the moments you are killing

all the time.

 

everyday the winds keep coming

and let you know this message:

at the end of the spiral stairs

there are no other friends

but the Grand Emptiness.

 

you wonder:

why people with so much void in their heart,

keep running their worldly shows,

being so blind in life?

 

so helplessly you keep staring

at the full-houses.

slowly the fanfare,

the laughter fades away.

 

 

thousand suns can never stop

this question that keep coming,

again and again:

 

'Who are you?

and where is your journey?

do you know for sure,

what's your destiny?'
