混沌篇 Chaos

Glass Bottle

Loitering around the abustle city,
I am submerged into traffic stream and huge crowd of people,
what takes me away toward desert.
Coming across an oasis,

I step into it aimlessly.
It’s just a mirage actually
which vanishes soon totally.

Through clear and ambiguous wall,
I watch singing and laughing of all people
who perform brilliant life.
It’s so close

that I open my arms,
but trapped by the iron bastion.

You go on acting,

no one pays attention to my loneliness.
We are in two worlds
with impassable bound.
I would rather the glass dissolve into raging flames

to bury in the final home.
