Notes About The Poem

- the Beast -

Sound like shaken steel

A powerful beast persecutor

All the painful nights

Gives bitter taste in the mouth

Our step in the shadow sustained

Some youthful dreams, drowned

Pain and passion go hand in hand

The jasmine cries, even in the sun

How deep and wide every second means

Free ourselves from the painful thoughts
