When You Leave
When you leave,
I shall fall into the hands of an accident.
The blood shall roar over my head,
Wheelchair shall be my legs,
As mask shall be my new face,
Because thy soul is my beauty.
When you leave,
Who shall I share my common problems with?
I will be afraid!
My name shall exceed the earth.
Who will understand me as you do?
If you leave, tears are my endless food!
Both day and night I will weep,
If my brothers and sisters ask,
I will cry on thy name.
Though I'm skinny,
Your presence can create flesh.
When you leave,
Soliloquy will surely be my madness.
Hold this flower,
I will make a vow.
Look in my eyes,
I will remove frowned and tears.
O! Babe, when you leave,
Stupidity is my formula,
As misery is my solution.
