I dream

Li Yanmey

My dreams are a place of safety.

But sometimes it's a place of darkness.

 

How can I tell that I'm a good man,

If there are times when I dream about bad things?

 

I dream about the apocalypse ,

When I see all these wars and murders.

I dream about apocalypse,

Because I'm afraid. Fear is my weakness.

 

And at the same time,

I dream about peace in the whole world.

So ridicolous.

People never kind with each other;

It's their nature - to kill, to try to become first.

 

How can they not understand -

No one man can rule the Universe?

But they can destroy it.

And they do.

Blood rivers of pain and screams are not

The best landscape and music for a beautiful world.
