Can You Hear Me ?

Can you hear?

Can you hear me?
Among the billions on this Earth.
Scared of turning into a cloud.
And as a cloud I rose from the firth.

Can you hear me?
Crying why,at the dinner table.
Please say it’s a vulcher.
Pain everywhere, pain when you’re able.

I can hear you.
Among the billions on this earth.
No fright,now or ever.
One day more, a new world to be see.

Can you hear me?
Straight ahead with a scar close unborn.


Yes,the answer always is ,I can.
