Let Me Die Again

Let me die again
Let me die as everyday –
Every time -every moment-
I died.
Let me die today too.
I am ugly –
But my soul is not coarse.
I may be lazy –
But my mind may not be sloth.
How folly they are!
Who always bothers me.
They don’t know
What kind of sorrow
They invite for themselves –
What can I do?
Only wish –
So that they could be escaped from their  fault
That they have done –
Let me remain peacefully.
Don’t stir my feelings again and again.
I never wish to quarrel about meaningless issues.
I am ordinary person,
So, let me remain peacefully.
Let me die peacefully.
