Thirsty

I am thirsty 

It still exist

I tasted
hundreds of creativity cup
Moisten my soul

Hundreds of creativity cup
Moisten my completely dry soul
Still the thirst there

The more the water
Moisten
The more thirst feeling

Night start to sleep
Lantern of the sky
Start to draw night blanket
And lamps extinguished one by one

Walk to and from
Bicycles
Motorcycles
Cars
Slowly changed
By the roar of iron bird
Break the silent sky

Even the stars
Unwilling to accompany
The night

I am still standing here
Waiting for my drink
To ease my thirst
Here by the crossroad

I am still standing here
Waiting to my meal
To ease my hunger
Here by the street

Still I am waiting
My drink
My meal
To stay up
Whether thirst of hunger
Striking my way
