Let it all go to waste… For what I long for, I’m bound to…

“Let it all go to waste… For what I long for, I’m bound to resign! Bittersweet is, like the taste of wine, This Love’s captivating taste. Let my heart be tormented by wonder It will never manage to attain. On my window symphony of rain, Open seas resound in strikes of thunder. Let my soul be lost…” quote by Aleksandra Ninkovic

““Let it all go to waste… For what I long for, I’m bound to resign! Bittersweet is, like the taste of wine, This Love’s captivating taste. Let my heart be tormented by wonder It will never manage to attain. On my window symphony of rain, Open seas resound in strikes of thunder. Let my soul be lost, ‘til Sun is set, And be found reborn within its death, I surrender the very last breath, Confessing my sins with no regret. Let it all go to waste, indeed. For with or without it, the sentence is pain. Therefore, in my stillness, silenced will remain, Everlasting dream and consuming need.””
