New York


They say home is where the heart is My heart has always been with me Until that day Until that moment That urban amazon jungle With passion as deep as the sea Solo yet never alone Never feeling as if I was already home Birds of prey in alleyways Lyrical dreams in subways Clouds hang and gentle rains fall The jungle cries for my soul She calls in wait She knows I hunger for more Time passes Time causes tragic reactions He who controls time He who bends space I beg to become one With this amazing jungle Allow me to visit the clustered sea Allow me to live among the tainted reef Finding solace With those who carry no feeling No empathy Just life
