Analysis of sorrow



deep searching and thinking
panic with comfortless
thinking and thinking, nonstop
deep breath, loneliness

one is comfort, two conflict
leaving my old home
bit sorrow my lover
my comfort

lost the hopes
thoughts are run away
never ever stop
searching again and ageing

friends on the phone
talking and talking
where is Madagascar
why attractive to the riches

poor children work hard
four direct ways
rearing and caring
deep breath, loneliness
