Worn out shoes,
messy hair and torn t-shirts,
a look of disappointment,
is written on the faces of strugglers.

A story unknown,
to the kin of the yearning heart.
A hankering for survival,
an avid reader of life.

Walked paths,
faded into nothingness of you.
abandoned footprints,
marooned on a thoughtless island.

Lapsed memories,
repressed behind walls of lilies.
Maybe it's time,
to move on from lingering shadows.
