I stayed awake and slept soundly at night.
Unnecessarily his eyes kept shedding red tears.
someone thought to read my silence
No and the whole life was just silent.
The church also went to the temple but
The stories in the chest just kept on screaming.
Sadness kept killing a new death every day
Wine was what kept my heart captivated.
luck kept on laughing at me and listening
My story kept applauding in the city.
