Hell In The Heaven?

 

Have you ever tasted the bitterness in honey?

Your blood surge by the wickedness of an infant

 

Looked away from the ugliness of a flower

Eyes blinded by the scorching heat of the moon

 

Ran away to escape the revenge of your mother

Burnt by the incessant heat of the flaming ice

 

Have you thrown away money as a simple colored paper?

Seen heaps of gold coins as useless metal discs

 

Suffered from the allergy of gold and diamond jewelry

Choked from the fresh breeze gently blowing over a flowered meadow

 

I want to desert the Shangri-La, and run away from everything

From everything that even a prince would not dream to be blessed

 

Run away to the safety of the land of the suicidal end

Without the sweet embrace of your love never to come

 

Why did you write me your letter in an invisible ink?

Why did you speak in a silent harsh sentence?

 

Why did you hear my feelings with your deaf ears?

I have already bled to death from your rejection whip

 

How can heaven be what it could be with out you in my life?

Isn’t a body just a corpse when the soul has disappeared once for all?
