Blow Back My Kite

Blow back my kite 

There was a moment
I admired a kite
who flew in dashing sky
sturdy and
unique

unexpectedly
the wind flew him
closer
to me

the most beautiful moment
in my life
was the time
i hug him tight

lovely kite
an idol of my heart

my precious days
full of jokes and laughter
with him

the time
I flew him into the sky
I used to write 
a beautiful poem 
on his wings

my heart
loves
spirits
and hopes
flew with him

it’s beyond my words
to express
how valuable
the happiness 
he gave me

when he was on the air
I guarded with cares
with the thread
I had
so as not torn by the wind

however
a day of less fortune
weather was unfriendly
wind was blowing so strong
And cut my existing thread

The hardest time for me
Was to see my kite
drifted away from me

i felt so sorry
to my beloved kite

my thread was too weak
i didnt have enough power

left a distant memory

loneliness
sadness

how could i keep searching
your laughter 
and jokes
when darkness cover your ambush
as my tears cover my eyes

O wind
blow back
my beloved kite
just the way
you ever blew him to me
