despair

absolute despair
boldly etched in the lyrics of this song.

capture the thrill of falling
in between living and dying,
the secret to life is hidden in plain view,
in melodies, in sorrow, in the rain
and the aftermath of a fresh shower.
the leaves that fall as the afternoon
slowly dies for the evening moon.

only if a painting could be this beautiful,
and memories this vivid;
the earth turns only for itself,
and the sun burns on and on.
