Cat/rat
“Curiosity killed the cat”
As so weeps the little rat
I asked the reason of such sorrow
“Cause you will be free tomorrow.”
The rat cried suddenly “Hey c’mon
That’s the way I have to go on
To be chased by cats, it’s my fate
I need a new one before it’s too late.”
Loving heart
The loving heart, no wings to fly
The seeing eyes that seem to cry
The angry words that tend to tie
The anticipations in a goodbye
The stupid mind that fall in love
The grey sunshine that gaze above
I believe the chances that I draw
Either to live in misery or to die
As love embraces
Are those the waves that hit me down?
Are those the foams that whirl around?
Your eyes are the deeps of deepest oceans
Your soft lips softens the whistling sound
I am the burning ships of shining suns
You are the glimpsing shadows of stars
We are the slaves of unforgettable moments
We are the victims of unthinkable loves
