Description
A poster reading "Lake Street Loves" along with a poem by Alaa Haasan. The poem is titled, "Lonely, Lonely," and reads as follows:
My soul dances like a butterfly
Cheerful and smiling
Didn't realize there's no tomorrow
Can't believe that this is the end
I lost my delight suddenly
Love and Loneliness is central.
Central Means all in all
Everything is lost
No more delight
No more butterflies
I can say that this is my end
The end of my soul
The end of everything
No more love, all is lost
There is a lonely life just started.
My soul dances like a butterfly
Cheerful and smiling
Didn't realize there's no tomorrow
Can't believe that this is the end
I lost my delight suddenly
Love and Loneliness is central.
Central Means all in all
Everything is lost
No more delight
No more butterflies
I can say that this is my end
The end of my soul
The end of everything
No more love, all is lost
There is a lonely life just started.
