A sudden wave of loneliness overtakes me;
I feel downhearted, my breath letting out an empty sigh;
My will is strong, my vision spreading out as far as the eye can see ;
But Despair still creeps upon me, never has the time been so nigh;
To overcome or be overwhelmed;
To succumb to the darkness within or to rekindle the fire;
Never once have I sought to aspire;
For my life, I was never at the helm;
How can beauty be so fair but yet so cruel?
At once I thought of renewal;
Yet my heart still lingers back, the disdain being the fuel;
As time will tell when the leaves on the prunus trees start to blossom;
There I may find my true rose, my true passion;
Or let the seasons wither me away;
Becoming the victim of cold and bitter decay;
How once was so pure and full of spirit;
I hope may never turn to loneliness, so woeful yet so wicked;
