.....today.....

Why is the day so dull
Why is the weather so pale
Why don't the flowers blossom
Why don't the squirrels run
Why is everything so quiet
Why is everybody so unknown

Nothing seems to rouse me
Nothing seems to cheer
Nowhere do I feel like going
No place seems to be dear....
........................................
I know something remains
Somewhere deep inside my heart
....Taking me to some other world...
Making my world so apart....

I see myself being led away
I see myself trying to get free..
What is this...
and why is it so
I ask and scream
.....But....where did my answer go.....

And then the sun rises
the rays light up my face
Chill air blows
and ruffles through my hair
Somewhere the clouds gurgle
little droplets fall
............
And then....almost suddenly....
......the shield breaks........
Colours of joy fill up the space
Beauty seems to make me warm
Hope sneaks in through the black
Desires replace despairs
..........
..........
Nothing had been so enriching
So pure...
And so beautiful..
As it has been today

When tiny little spheres have
Quenched my parched heart and
Sailed me Away.........
