When hope is lost, the heart problem filled

The world crowded with regrets and greed

When life can't accommodate friendship and love

Suicidal thoughts the mind triggered off

The body weak, doubts can't fight

The cloud deserted of stars at night

I will hold firm the crutch that lifts the spirit

I'll find where countenance resides in the heart

If a thousand times over I fall

I will pick up the pieces from the start

I see heaven weighing down

The burden of world pulling the sky

Sin gradually destroying the world

Time reading anti clockwise, future taken out of hand

Life is unstable, stars plucked out of the cloud

I see hope lost, man scavenging to survive

The world out of control, death and life decline

Eclipse amidst the earth each day

Feelings, emotions and love stolen away

No sun, no moon, nor wind to whisper

I see gratitude hiding behind a frame

Storms in everyone's heart tamed

Season forgotten and hope slipping away

Shadows walking aimlessly like a stone way

I see only a miracle the world and life renewed

Fetch the soul a glass of water

She needs to drink away the tears

It’s been sunny lately like forever

And drought encompassed the heart

Can't find a cloud hope to shelter

Life drifting between time

All she seek is a cup of water

For a soul suffering overdue
