Who shall?
When the sun rises
Stay enclosed in his house
Away from glazing eyes
Who shall?
In the hands of people
Lay down his mantle
To be judged as they feel
Who shall?
As the sun sets
Leaps from his bed
From the comfort it once held
Who shall?
Full of emptiness
Secludes in a room of darkness
And be blinded by light
I’ll stay hidden till dawn’s gone
Till the storm stops
When the one I look up to comes
I’ll stay in the dark
Until light’s around
And when peace abound
Call me coward
Tag me a weakling
For bewraying my fears
And I will write on sand
How I was forced to the shadow
In my cachette
I will write poems and songs
Of sorrows and shame
Of betrayal by the world
I will cry in pains
Curled at the back of the door
Ink and tears to my page
I’ll stay hidden till dawn’s gone
Till the storm is over
I’ll write till the world hears my tears
