I try to catch the falling sands..

One night to catch my face in his hands.

Will those eyes light up my smile

Long after the candle has burned down?

I crouch at the feet of fallen admiration.

And continue to extend myself despite my isolation.

There’s nothing I can do to change the currents here

And yet I find myself still in the stream –

Holding with open palm my simple dream.

Why cannot love come and fight for me?

Why is this moment – the only one?

A lighthouse untouchable – an imitation of the sun.
