Ascend, ascend, ascend
There are times
when you will never know
what side of the wall you are on.
Why does the caged bird sing?
Maya Angelou asks
For the same reason the pianist plays!
replies Roman Polanski
and he should know
"Why the fucking coat?"
"I'm cold."

ReplyDeleteYou do not have today, again,
But my heart still sad,
Tune into the desired molded,
Mine self made person.
You do not have any memory
But my heart still sad,
Tune in every moment the paths Dunda
I made him my slave.
You have no relation to me
But my heart still sad,
Tune tried to get the shadow
I found myself better than that.
I guessed you might have used translator... nice of you ... let me do it properly for you :

some shadows you lusted for
