I wait in vain the sun is bound
behind thick clouds of smoke
summer just passed spring is still far
on wilting hopes I choke
the night quickly grows old
time slips from underneath my feet
and I’m left in the cold
to let it die thereafter
I never gaged the blue that brings
the absence of a laughter
the clouds stay still unbearable
it feels like what inside me broke
is irreparable
behind thick clouds of smoke
summer just passed spring is still far
on wilting hopes I choke
awake in the youth of the night
the night quickly grows old
time slips from underneath my feet
and I’m left in the cold
a drop of warmth revived my touch
to let it die thereafter
I never gaged the blue that brings
the absence of a laughter
my weather subject to your winds
the clouds stay still unbearable
it feels like what inside me broke
is irreparable
