Faraway in the midst of the burning sand stood a lone camel
Across the vast blue sea drifted a tattered ship
The clear blue sky seemed no joy for the solitary bird
Likewise I’ve none in this cosmic world

Owls hoot scary notes in the dense jungle
Angry waves gush against the sober shore
Shadowy night held secrets many
But none seemed as tormenting as my twinge

Life seemed like an incessant journey of distress
At every junction swords of dejection pierced deep
Loneliness became order of the day
Who wants to be a redundant anyway?

I don’t insist the worldly pleasure
All I ask is to be loved immensely
I want to be cared for, secured for
I’m not egotistic, I’m just a normal person

Loved ones showered detached love
Friends showed distant love
When true love came my way I turned away
Now i’m a beggar with my heart empty

Living without love is futile
i’m not a saint to be detached from all
My heart yearns for a little affection
My self cries for some attention

Unconditioned love is just benevolent
i’m ready to give all I have
But isn’t expecting to be loved human
I want love to endure

I can’t tread the path of isolation anymore
How do I interpret unspoken love?
Hunger and sleep evade me
A simple expression of love is all I desire

Neglected and discarded I can’t survive
I don’t wish to distress anyone by my woe
I want to find some solace remote from here
Hope I bid adieu to this world very soon
