” Play with words,
It is difficult to talk to the letters you sent.
It’s hard for me to play with words now.
Your streets with sadness on this face
It is difficult for me to come while looking for you.
running like crazy after your shadow
It’s hard to stay and follow you now.
Only me instead of us after being separated from you
Being alone in this heart is difficult.
sitting alone with open eyes
It’s hard to make you feel lonely.
I got my sight from your eyes but
It’s hard to see now.
By considering you as love, you are left behind
It is difficult to keep begging for life.
By handing living wishes to the grave
It is difficult to ask God for death for yourself.
