&ldquo;And once the storm is over, you won&rsquo;t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won&rsquo;t even be sure, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won&rsquo;t be the same person who walked in. That&rsquo;s what this storm&rsquo;s all about.&rdquo; <br /> ― Haruki Murakami

Late at night
A tear may fall
A tear which, later, I will not recall
A fallen dream
A broken heart
A world that's falling apart,
Ripping at the seams

I whisper,
Softly,
A sad
Sweet lullaby
Of times and people past
Only to save my sanity at last

Late at night,
A tear may fall
A tear which later I will not recall.
A tear of sorrow
A tear of pain
A tear of me,
Cellophane
