A first born's cry
i am,
a sorrowful child,
i sleep empty,
dream riches,
wake up...
in a falling bed,
on a hopeless day,
so does my whole family.

i am,
also a hope child,
with one stick,
an empty match box,
and a candle,
if i shake,no light,
no warmth,no life
for the whole family.

i am,
mom's eyeball,
timid in my dream,
breaking tides,
i have seen enough,
till i wish i were last,
my eyes lash fading,
for i see for the whole family.

i am,
a guardian angel,
to my siblings,
who cant fight alone.
inside i think,
its a losing battle,
for 20's old,
no white flag;at mind.
