Metaphorically speaking

My world came crashing down,
the earth crumbling under my feet.
The quaking earth just said,
I am letting crash your dreams.

I love my life I said,
don't bring it down on me.
The cracking earth just said,
I am sorry but it's the fate of thee.

With tears in my mind,
and solitude on me.
I decided to use my strength now,
to build my world as it had been.

But things are different now,
it may never be the same.
Coz I have lost something so very dear,
that treasure which can none replace.

But life so has to move ahead,
you can't just cling on to the past.
It will come back again to you,
if it was truly meant to last.

Some day if the earth realized,
how vain it had then been.
It may just bring back those happy days,
like they were forever meant to be.

I will wait till then,
with some hope alive.
Just hoping that the earth realize,
before those sweet memories have long gone by.
