Delusion

Warmed by the morning rays of the sun.

Hummingbirds on my roof make sounds,

And it makes me feel at ease

I stood on my bed, scratched my eyes, and looked outside

Hmm.., I can see a familiar face of a guy,

No signs of trouble,

Even a little sorrow

He’s looking so happy, I smile.

“Ephemeral,” I whisper.

My recollection of memories that night,

She’s crying and looking so tired

How I wish to help her, but I was just a child

All I could do was sing a nursery rhyme

I sing the song she sang at my bedtime

But she cried,

She cried even harder, and so did I

She said “Shhh”, “shhh”,

I laugh, “Useless! Useless me, Oh! My!”.

She patted my head,

Called my name before she died.

“Vengeance!”,

Sufferance will be seeing a dying daughter

Knife and blood on my hand,

“Die! Die!” saying and laughing at the same time

“Charlotte!” shouted as she cried

I was startled to hear a friend of mine,

It all vanished. I broke down.

I cry and shout with hatred,

“Prejudice!, All I want is justice.”
