In the Middle of My Eyes
I painted a place…
But the place reminds me of something…
A lonely palm tree…
A sea with no end…
And the sun has set…
The night has come…
And everything slipped away from me…
I don’t think it will ever return…
Oh, tear that fell… on something
That never mattered…
Oh, tear that fell…
A trapped homeland…
Stories untold, unspoken
Eyes beneath the eyelids…
Drowning in sorrow…
Drowning, a ship lost…
Oh, the sorrow of the island…
Abandoned,
But what fault did it have to be left
behind?
Oh, the sorrow of the island…
That never found a harbor…
Every time I close my eyes…
I see the waves rise high…
As if they take something from me…
And nothing is left… not even a memory…
Even the waves turned against me…
And took everything away…
The deserted island…
Was not searching for a sea…
It was looking for a heart to dwell…
A heart to hold it
