Pretending to die

by Vu Thanh Hoa

falling into the night
slipping into the night
a shadow pretending to die

silence earth
secret moving seeds
the sky is as clear as a mirror
a whisper from somewhere world
how can know
who is crying
who is smiling
who pretends to be blind to be deaf
the blind love and hate, round real and fake
moon night moonless nigh
tomorrow is shining anyway
turn off the light
sleep
the dream is still awake
the darkness pretends to die
everyone pretends to die
I pretend to die
my heart is still alive for loving you
