Old time old heart new mind

           -1-  

December in a note

June in thoughts

Changing time in my heart

A power of forgetting old time

 

-2- 

Spirit of time olden my mind

Unknown heart bit in my body

Change my breath

In that time

That olden my mind

-3- 

Moon was bright six times

Sun shines many times

One to twelve I count those

Every second I saw those

My life gone fast in this way

-4- 

Old maze I get through

When I born till death

I run through

Not stopping so are men

No slapping so are papers

December was ended I shall not

-5- 

Some friends I met

Some passengers I saw

One is fast

Running insanely

So fast

Meeting all my friends

Kissing them

Forgetting them

And missing them

As men done

As stars in the sky

Spirit of shining gone

-6- 

The other is and the other was

So lazy to walk not attention to my friend

Not a kiss

Not knowing their names

Their stories

How cruel is the other one

Controlling me the other one

-7- 

In my old maze

I am alone as love

Alone as myself

Not a friend

Alone… alone

Friend with eyes stares

With a smile or not what heart wants

I was free once

As the soul

As the freedom was

I was free as shouts

As words

A letter to a letter

I was free as time was

Not limited very long as time

Now is the end of my mind

Since my heart collapse

Now I am chained as time is

Running from a number to a number

Slowly…

I was my life in June

I lost

 

I get it as illnesses in December
