MORNING BY MORNING

Morning by morning, day by day, night by night,

I get the sight long withing sighing,

feeling as if I'm dying,

It is look looking in the eyes of a hissing cobra

that possess the mind, in a world that is unkind.

In the name of a broken world, in it shines on dim

I'm standing by spitting shores,

the air leaps and wobbles.

As I write in a book

where everyone wants to take a look,

I can see they're getting hooked

on what it is you took.

The stir of leaves, on a chilly morning of Autumn

my heart bled on those stir pages of leaves in memories,

the whispering of wind are at the gates

where those memories lay,

that keep my spirit awake,

by night is the sighing, as my heart is breaking.
