Worth



Soaked logs are of no avail
And the smoke cannot be inhaled
But I need something to burn
To get some warmth in return
With a transient light
To make my world bright
To show me the way
Where I should step ahead
To look for the key to run
A cherished car towards the sun
That gave me those beatific rays
And bailed faraway
To a strange land
When I couldn't understand
Why it's azure in my heart
In a lonesome isle as she starts
To talk
To walk
The way she expresses her thoughts
For the love I was averse to sought
So I missed the chance I got
But it is better than naught
To search the whole ground
When my strayed earth has found
A satisfying sun to pursue
While she acts as a glue
That should be acquired
Cared and admired
Till the desired sun soars
When it's worth striving for
