All I Want

All I want is to be heard, So that my cry doesn't fade into nothingness, It flies furiously over the roofs, And runs out somewhere in the silent darkness. All I want is to have the fidelity of love, Which will warm my tortured soul. In my dreams I bite my lips until they bleed, And I will wait for those who are not indifferent to me. All I want is to be listened to, And my whisper found a response in my soul. I don't want my hopes to be dashed, And I'm tired of catching stars in a bucket. All the things I think about on dark nights, I rhyme the next day. We destroy our own lives and souls, I want to keep my shadow at least. All I want to do is be honest with myself I want people to appreciate the truth, The truth is, it is like the heat of summer, Haunts with every particle of dust. All I want is for my words to live, To reach people's hearts: "Our deepest dreams are worth the effort, Because they carry happiness in them!»
