You wandered those unknown territories
searching for something
The trees, the grass, the wilderness, the class
Everything looked familiar, everything looked new
Everything looked happy, everything looked true
The thorns you hugged were hurt deep down
You accepted the pain wearing that thorny crown
The blood bled over your pius, empath eyes
Making everything look pink hiding those painful cries
They gave you fulfillment and filled your voids, by piercing your tender heart
You accepted each wound every time and again, as your heart's beating part
The blood kept oozing with time and slow
Until you got weak and late
You stood there helpless unable to express
Accepted it as an unkind fate
The illusion then broke and you felt the strain
you startled by looking around
The beautiful castle, the love and nestle
was all just a barren ground
You remembered again what you've been looking for
The true love that's truly true
It's me that you call the self-love dear
I am the one you seeking, the one that's within you.
