‘An Unwritten Song’ by Sonam Dema

A thousand stars

A lone moon

A lonely boy

And I, a night-sky.

 

A thousand promises

A love song

A paper lover

And I, a perpetual dreamer.

 

A thousand voyages

A waning solace

A passing sailor

And I, a winding river

 

A thousand memories

A soothing melody

A forgotten voice

And I, an unwritten song.
