I Want To Die

I want to die and go home
Life is void and transient
Sorrow and hardship is the pillar of life
Inequality and segregation is
the other name of life
Nothing is in life except mirage golds
that will even mislead me
to miss the eternal home
where things are utopia
and sorrow and agony, you will not taste
But eternal joy that will honey your soul
I want to die and go home
Torment has conscious my nostalgia
I will be happy if I die
For this home is elysian.
