Ashes of memory

Nation of Wonders

By Kisama Riyo Published about a year ago 1 min read

And from the grave the body of her memory scattered on the dust

Then it turned into embers chased by flies on its way?

And from where was the enemy beating the drums of war

We announced that from the evil of a guilty devil who needs a reward?

On defenseless civilians they launched raids and summoned the wolves

From the waves of a drowning sea that had already received a reward?

On the wings of the raven corruption took control of the nation of wonders

So I held my tears in my eyes and made it a weeping tomorrow

I held my session and opened all the doors

So who returned and announced the departure

To a homeland dominated by the madness of invaders and declared it a duty?

And made the sea a wave of turmoil

And made the soul love a fire that turned into embers and melted

And made things run in my being like a mirage

And my years were folded so that none of us needed an answer anymore

And the wolves danced around him and sang the song of withdrawal?

My soul was torn apart and that was one of the reasons

Because I end the bruises and hide the tears of life I declare that it has become a confrontation

Woe to me from the mountain breeze that has become in my being, rejecting gloom

And forcing me to wear the darkest clothes to be equal?
