When you feel to scream

And you scream to feel

When you listen and talk

Smiling all alone

Amusing your Soul

When you whisper to darkness

And to stars descending down the sky

Rushing to escape the raising Sun

When the daylight reminds you of

Another Journey to Hopeless Land

When all that you have dreamed of

Is nothing you have attained

When you feel helpless

Hiding from your own self

When tomorrow seems

Such a far away place

When you can’t remember

Why you started to write

When words posses you

And you posses tears

When your sorrow

Is invisible

And your acts

Are fake

How

How

How

Do you love

Yourself ?
