Dream of Dreams

I was born pure and free 
Every passing birthday celebrates my perfect genes   
It's not certain when things changed
I feel the growing pain
my lungs are filled with sooty particles
and brain lives in a death mansion  

Drowning in studies
is the killing of my intelligence  
If somehow I were reborn in outer space  
I'd create Martian laws, forget the earth's  

The world is craving for endless wealth  
Only I miss the trees  
Memories of the thriving junipers in the far woods  
Are they still alive today?

In dreams i manufactured magical roses
I used them to clean the carbon prints behind humans
It's a comfort to my soul
to relieve the fear of seeing a garden without leaves
I labored hard for my wish to come true
Just for a green future can still be seen 
without wearing green glasses
