Bleak

My mind is bleak and toneless are these walls
moments are passing by like trains that never stop
i think without a thought but somehow i think after all
the breath of nightly calm would cure my tumbling heart
you'd be frightened if you were here
to embrace my life - has to sear
the shore remains unmoved
by those rousing cries that are flirting with sleep
i've wandered to find
but still, still i'm not there
a journey so infinite
and still, still i'm not there
you'd be frightened if you were here
to encourage - life has to sear
