someone must be crying
in such an evening
wind coming from the west
rain coming from the west
and she is the one
who can’t hold her tears
after seeing so many piles
of white bones in history
the injustice and the dead silence
of the world
and she is the one
who once starts crying
cannot stop
human sins surround her like icebergs
choke her
with their oppressive shadows
someone must be crying
in such an evening
wind coming from the west
rain coming from the west
