On Your Own

The roses dying scream out for some air to breath
The mist in the blackened sky weeps in the tears
Your throat is holding back as dry as a bone
You see how much the pain the conditions can feel like a roller-coaster

As you stand
Under the sky in the tears
Leaving you cry without letting others can see you
The things can change in next minute out of the blue
It can be gone, but sometimes it’s never gone
Not letting others can see you

As you know
In next minute, you smile
In next minute, you laugh
In next minute, you frown
In next minute, you cry
It’s not that trouble-free
As you see
It’s just like a roller-coaster
Scream all you want
The room abruptly shakes like an earthquake

All of the sudden, you are starting to be out of control
And all of these memories flash back just like a fire
You are starting to miss home
The weight on your heart gain every day
Everything slowly changes in many ways

And now you’re unexpectedly feeling left out
Sometimes he’s there for you
Sometimes she’s there for you
It’s not that easy
The blood gradually dispirit dying
All you wish you want to fly

And you know it’s not always enough to make yourself blissful
Under the weepy sky
And you’re already on your own
You don’t care what you look like
The world is falling around you before now

You’re already on your own
You’re already on your own
You’re already on your own
You’re already on your own

You know the things will be okay

September 6, 2009

That’s exactly how I am feeling this way when I am on my own at the university. It’s not that easy for a first month I am living there. Even though for awhile you will just have to get used to live there all alone without a family in miles away. I wish I can see them every day, but sometimes it just has to be this way. It hurts like hell. It’s never easy, but hey, it will be okay. As long as I am going to success my dream, I will work hard as much as I can. There’s always a faith in yourself to believe with a hope.
