1.If the blueness of the sky
2.Is a trace of blurred tears,3.
4.The pride of the world at large
5.Would make even the slightest daily life feel heavy.6.
7.Even if painted in opaque colors,
8.If I could throw everything away to the other side,9.
10.Rather than struggling with decorum and underdeveloped wings,
11.I want to drown in the impulses of a chrysalis,
12.With an empty ambition.13.
14.If everyone has their own way of living that they can accept,
15.Even their own way of dying,
16.Whose voice do we really need?17.
18.Let’s just stop thinking
19.And answer, us.
20.Erase the comfort of the night
21.And cry with our backs to the morning.22.
23.Adults can’t go back to being children,
24.And they spend their days making it rain.25.
26.Younger ones carrying pressure
27.Foolishly hide their youthfulness.28.
29.And the same sky is spreading above us.30.
31.It’s spreading in our hearts.32.
33.If the clarity were extreme enough,
34.A thin future wouldn’t matter anymore.
35.Shall we wish for it in a cocoon,
36.Whether it’s sunny or not?37.
38.Is it wrong for the inside of a balloon inflated to the brink
39.To be just an empty hollow?
40.Hey.41.
42.Destinations that replace acceptance,
43.And even encouragement, are just lumps of contradictions,
44.Because it’s the misread reality.45.
46.Let’s just say it’s all empty,
47.Us.
48.Erase the comfort of the night
49.And cry with our backs to the morning.
