Birdboy

When it's dawn, I want to take a leap
I want to defy odds
I want to soar high in the sky
and sing song of the birds
Formative soul wants to be like butterflies,
They wish they can make flowers blossom
and when eve comes,
Disappear into the nothingness of the night
Today, my dream is a man in khaki
Who wants to swallow his sister's fear
My dream today is a woman
Who was drawn from the memory of alphabets
My dream is an empty country,
Beautiful rubbles mixed with war tears
Today, the living are afraid to breathe
