WHERE THE STREETS HAVE NO NAME

Forest trek at Lambs Rock, 9 kms from Coonnoor


I want to run
I want to hide
I want to tear down the walls
That hold me inside
I want to reach out
And touch the flame
Where the streets have no name

I want to feel, sunlight on my face
See that dust cloud disappear without a trace
I want to take shelter from the poison rain
Where the streets have no name

The cities a flood
And our love turns to rust
Were beaten and blown by the wind
Trampled into dust
Ill show you a place
High on a desert plain
Where the streets have no name
- U2

Nice little poem. (u shud have given the credits to U2 4 it tho')

But the photo would have been better if you could use the natural light better. The angle is quite fine.

@ torsa -

1. I never said the poem is mine. I just felt it appropriate to put with the pic. :)

2. I love the song!

3. Credits, as you say, shall be given.

I was going to critically examine the poem(a la Malshe) thinking you wrote it:D...U2 dikha hi nahi side mein!
