Pessimism
Passing through the life’s pages
Seeping through the leaves
I took out a leaflet
I felt embers in its heart
But sparkle faded
Oh! What innocence!
Passing through the life’s pages
Seeping through the leaves
I took out a pamphlet
I felt fire in its heart
But warmth faded
Oh! What modest pride!
Passing through the life’s pages
Seeping through the leaves
I took out a red-letter
I felt desire in its heart
But age-faded
Oh! What dejection!
Passing through the life’s pages
Seeping through the leaves
I took out a reef
I felt fury in its heart
But rage faded
Oh! What futility!
Passing through the life’s pages
Seeping through the leaves
I took out a leaf
I felt beauty in its heart
But hue faded
Oh! What lewdness!
Passing through the life’s pages
Seeping through the leaves
I took out a fabric
I felt a lovely pattern
But a crinkled surface
Oh! What misunderstanding!
