Birth

Birth

A Poem by Karina Longo
"

Lyrics.

"

Happiness blows like a bold wild winter - all your loving was only for you

Trust flowing like a cold sad river - I can see the reflections

Of the same faces, the dead shapes of lies and despair

I want to impress myself with other feelings than frustration and fear

But please don't expect anything from me

 

If you can't take it, well, I couldn't take it

Don't you see I'm paralized by fear

Don't you see I've always been here

With the same eyes looking to the silver pouring skies

Close to nothing - we're all born to die

 

Accepting to survive by birth

Maybe her most dangerous mistake

She'd cry for the first time, naked to the world like a fragile little bird

Unknown of the fate of crying again for the next several years

Wearing a skin full of bruises - oh we praise the naked truth

But we end up sleeping in the same bed as lies

 

And if you can't take it, well, I will take it

Don't you see I'm still paralized by fear

Don't see I've always been here

With the same eyes looking to the biggest prize

Escaping from insanity - yet rejecting sanity 

One sun one moon one day I'll rise and shine

Beautiful lines.....

"Accepting to survive by birth
Maybe her most dangerous mistake
She'd cry for the first time, naked to the world like a fragile little bird
Unknown of the fate of crying again for the next several years
Wearing a skin full of bruises - oh we praise the naked truth
But we end up sleeping in the same bed as lies"

Its very philosophical too... The way the emotions have been handled is very nice.. The self confidence shown at the last line is remarkable.

"Escaping from insanity - yet rejecting sanity
One sun one moon one day I'll rise and shine"

Great job!
