After My Shadow Left
I am afraid
Even in my dreams to
Fall off from an unknown cliff
Even in my dreams to
Fall off from an unknown cliff
What a madman I’ve become
Ever since my shadow left
Ever since my shadow left
What My Love Is
My love is a soured apple
Hidden in a cracked dark earth pot
Buried in the far desert
Unmarked
Hidden in a cracked dark earth pot
Buried in the far desert
Unmarked
My love is a mystery
I am afraid
The day it resurrects
I die again
I am afraid
The day it resurrects
I die again
