THE OCEAN OF DESIRES

I yearn to succeed,

I yearn to be at the top,

Yet I often find myself at the bottom of the cliff,

I was once determined to reach the top off.

Why does my hardwork not prevail,

Remember me for faster sign in

Why is my talent not enough,

I sit alone on my sinking boat,

amidst my ocean of dreams and desires.

But the real tragedy is the boat would neither sink

nor float.

At night,when the sky goes dark and the horizon disappears,

wrapped in her salt and mist,she sings to me the darkest and most ruinous poetry known to mankind..
