Longing For....

The warmth of the sun, Oh how I long for such a life A gentle breeze blowing on my face Is how I imagine my mind tranquil Strong, green leaves rustle in unity I see my family and friends happy A bitter sweet drop of rain outlines my lips I awaken to my tears, far from the dream No warming sun to glow within Harsh winds in my head Bare, skeletal trees as all around are in crisis The rain on my mouth salty, heavy as I cry It is only through slumber I feel alive.
