You better go
I see you on the balcony in the morning
Oh no! How do you know I am here?
Are you not afraid?
If anyone sees you?
The dark fog gradually became lighter like clear water
I see you up close
That's the same, vagrant indifference in the face
How are you?
You were supposed to be okay.
I'm well too.
Look at this!
How I let the wet clothes dry on a rope wrapped in love
Why are you standing like that?
Do you want to talk, touching my hand?
Have the courage?
You better go
I have absolutely no time
The man is lying down with love passion
I will put wet hair on his face as soon as his eyes open
Do you understand?
You are not in my memory anymore.
You said to wait for the flower to bloom,
But you forgot
Thousands of stars were waiting for you in the sky
You forgot everything!
Standing alone under the sky, what do you think today?
Tell me!
Where will the stars be today?
I don't know; I don't know
Are you leaving?
Go
The dynamics of tomorrow are strict, you know?
Everything got wet in last night's rain
Look at the group of frogs in the muddy pond
with the smell of clay
They are rejoicing
Do you have time to visit them?
Do you want to sit down?
Come close. let us recall our old memory together
Not bad!
How dry the face is
Tell me, how long have you been hungry?
Do you want to touch my hand?
Won't there be injustice?
If anyone sees?
You better go
Colors like ignorant love, why today?
At such a time?
Listen, I go now
I have a lot to be done.
The dirty plates have been lying around since night
How much work!
No breakfast yet, how much to cook
You better go back
As you go, humbly throw your breath into the air
Let the sun shines brightly.
Today
Let the heat-burnt soil; Let it be burst
I also go back very alone!
Alone.
I see you on the balcony in the morningZ
Oh no! How do you know I am here?
Are you not afraid?
If anyone sees you?
The dark fog gradually became lighter like clear water
I see you up close
That's the same, vagrant indifference in the face
How are you?
You were supposed to be okay.
I'm well too.

How I let the wet clothes dry on a rope wrapped in love
