Crocodiles have skin like steel.
Even eggs have shell.
Even crocodiles shed tears.
With a million stars above,
I can't find the reasons why.
I wear a dress with
a simple design.
Under that is my skin,
Under that skin is my flesh
But I do still feel naked.
Dirt is all over my body.
I can just simply wash it off.
But I am afraid,
Even soap cannot
wash away this dirt.
