People's dreams

Dreams wonder

By Kisama Riyo Published about a year ago 1 min read

Dreams wonder what

People hope for

And what made me a companion

To them and to those they glorify

I hold a bright mind

I am friendly with blame

I do not shake hands with insult

And so is the darkest mind

And I resist the laziness that

was a temptation to those who grew up

Oh laziness that

Still demolishes a landmark

Has not snatched what he hopes for

Cannot climb the ladder

This life resists

To those who hope for it as gain

This life is what

Brought us the breeze

This wants happiness

Then hopes for the stars

Oh star, bring light to

This life so that you may enjoy

Oh star, bring a gift to

Those tasks belong to

Oh star, this man

There is still a criminal in us

He still spreads a cloud

For light has become a bridle

And the ship of happiness that

Flees to the shore of heaven

Laden with hope

Leaves the thirsty
