The sky facing the earth’s waters
Mirrored its richness of colours.
A sprinkles of orange and touches of blue,
Clouds floating like cotton candies.

Towering heights boastfully stands
Within the city that never sleeps.
Working from early morn till late at night,
Chasing the most elusive taste of success.

A land of dreams, a land of hope
For people of different races and strokes.
From tyrants to oligarchs to layman,
It’s their endless rendezvous.

That when I set my feet to its grounds,
I fell in love at first sight of its beauty,
Wanting to explore its hidden paradise,
Embracing it, as it welcomes me within.

My second home, sweet home.
We’ve seen each other’s struggles:
Me, for a future, and you, for stability.
You’ve filled some pages of my story.

I may leave you soon, I may never come back to your arms.
But thank you for what I will take home
Is my own sweet fulfillment of dreams.
