still I

running towards the sun
trying to grab the light
it slips through my fingers,
disappears

telling myself there's no such thing
as hope and love
a better tomorrow
life brings sorrow
death lurks around the corner

but why do i keep on believing?

dream buried in my heart
future held tightly in my hand
because it's the only thing that keeps me
breathing

far away from me
it's far away from me
running towards the prize
but it's far away from me
moon swallows the light
darkness covers me

sadness you are my friend
nothings good for me.


but still I
hold on
even though my faith
is a grain of sand

Author notes

This is kinda old. I wrote this last year in July. can't remember where it came from or if I was really depressed at that time (i have a habit of writing sad songs and not being sad at all). but this is one of my favorite songs so...hope you like it.

Please tell me what you think

    Even if there is just a grain of sand in faith, there's still hope to look forward to no matter how small it is. This is a sweet and sad song, yet it holds deep meaning. Since I haven't written many poems in almost a year now, I can't really speak my mind as well. Then again... when have I ever really was able to speak my mind? I'm still grasping onto loose strings for abstract thoughts that I can't even communicate. But then, I'm glad you shared this

    Continue to write sweets ^^
