Tankas of a Broken Soul (Dreams)

I will live in dreams,
Forever drifting away
Waiting for a cloud
To carry my soul away
Where I am wanted and loved.

Emptiness abound,
My heart is left hollow-shelled,
Barren withouht peace,
A desert waiting for rain
To quench my eternal thirst.

My longing can't end.
I long to find connection
In a lonely world.
Darkness is the only home
I have ever known or will.

Dreams are the one way
I can live in happiness
And find Nirvana;
A blue skied land of promise,
An eden where I prosper.

I will live in dreams,
Searching to find the true path
To a better life
Where the morrow is not dark
And promises my heart..hope..
