Contemplation

I began to rest in the shade of grey,

The colors of life are constantly blur...

If you asked, 'how are you dying today?'

I would say 'like I have never lived before'

 

Shallow ones need restrictions to live

A deep one lives restrictions to survive

Whenever, wherever I planted feelings,

Only deep amity, concord would thrive

 

You wanted opposite, I do not blame,

You can't fly if you were born for crawling...

You don't hear melody, but deem dancers mad,

Just for this dissonance, I was brawling?!

 

I've faced up to all devastations from you

And I will lose nothing even if you disdain

I have own dimensions of perception -

'The higher you soar the smaller you are seen'

 

How long will this continue? Forever?!

But I wish you would change and be gracious,

I admit, I also had heedless mistakes,

Anyway, I try to keep you precious

 

That was the difference just between us,

I tried to exalt, but you disgraced.

You could still be admired by a mad poet

But you chose to be loved by a dishonest...
