The Moon Cries

In the backyard of the earth

The solitary moon was sitting

In the dark with a hidden secret

The moon cries before it puts on

Wiping out tears get touched on the cheeks

Walks in the sky having tired with bored mood

Clouds cover and stars divert

Slept night is blind for hidden reality

No one feels and knows

Beauty doesn’t tell anything

Lamenting heart is a flame in the lamp

Glass of light is a wall of the chimney

Outside world has a dream in the night

The day time at the dark

The moon sees the light

Beings are on earth

Wrapped up in an animosity

Faces laugh and inside sword snares

Collected values are used for blast

A red line ribbon of river intercrosses                                                         

On the dead bodies of harmful battles

Creatures sink in light of the dark

The moon suffers in the dark of the light

Waves of the seas haunt for a width

The warm of the earth is the hate of the man.
