Confession

Traversing through the mysterious domain of clouds I suddenly picked up a resplendent piece of sorrow It stared at me, and its gloomy eyes asked Why should there be so much crowd in loneliness I paused, and then replied Why don't you seek to find the river that you lost So long ago in your childhood It said, well, I never lost her; it's she that deserted me I wanted to touch her stream and she got upset I never talked to the lonely fish that rested in her bosom Listening to my sorrow's confession I slowly turned back, and The night's wings drew back with the solitary sparrow Amidst the crimson glow of the setting sun
