Lost ... without you!

Have you seen the desert rose?
Amidst its numerous thorns
Looking for its lover's song?

Have you seen the boat bobbing along?
Lost in the high-sea waves
Looking for its lover's trace?

Have you seen the pretty bird?
Amidst miles of empty skies
Looking for its lover's eyes?

Have you seen the lonely soul?
Lost in the teeming crowds
Looking for its lover's words?

Have you seen me, ever?
When you're not around me
That is exactly how I feel ...
