I always wanted to try this, today, in the last few hours of my sixteen year old life, I shall attempt. My Media Player's on shuffle, all my songs in the playlist.
Mirages
A river flows on (xi shui chang liu)
Listening to the sea cry (ting hai)
For fluttering freely in the wind
Is a nonexistant butterfly (butterfly)
There's a reflection of a fire in your eyes (staring at the sun)
Showing the love between heaven and earth (ai zai tian di jian)
It's been a night, an entire night of tears (hao ai ta hao xiang ta)
In that painful look for that so called heaven (tian tang)
Showers of water pour out (showers of love)
A thousand words, a thousand embraces (1000 words)
Remember the games of the angels (guardian angel)
Amidst the day when everything melts; masks and faces (dong jie)
An old yellow lanturn stands out (hui dao guo qu)
Held by the one who survives, who's alive again (because you live)
Having tasted, with thanks, the flavour of life (flavour of life)
That flavour, which delusions,bring about. (mi shi xiang)
Just a smile and the rain vanishes (I lay my love on you)
But just in a moment, after a life's wait (Dreams)
I know they'll vanish away forever (The last song i'm wasting on you)
And only silence will engrave the date. (Yi zhi hen an jing)
Pay close attention, yet dont listen to me (Must be dreaming)
A kite follows a dream, forever tied to a string (Tian kong)
The ending cannot be changed, dont bother hiding (Xiu xiu xiu)
Look into your heart, they're in every human being (I'm yours)
There've been many things that existed yet didnt in my 16 years.
They gave rise to many problems, pain and even caused the loss of lives.
This poem is for those who have been cheated by the mirages of life...
At least they give hope...
