Timeless sky
And a lonely me
A scorching sun
In sands of a desert
Endless sea
The waves hovering
But if for company
A star, an oasis, a ship
A dream true
It shall be
ORIGINAL-- When it seems and not
Melting in the timeless sky
horizon lonely and shy
Saw nothing
but the leaves fallen dry
Walking in the scorching sun
passing through the desert land
Saw nothing
but only the glistening sand
Wading through the water
sinking in the endless sea
Saw nothing
but the waves hovering in glee
Then hopes sprung
of what is seen
and what it seems
And the heart sung
An oasis in the desert
A ship in the sea
A star in the sky
As dreams can be
But certainty a darn thing
when doubts start creeping in
Was that all of dreams
lasting just long as it seems
The star a jinxed one
The oasis an illusion
The ship a shark
Still thoughts in confusion.....
