The Shut Door

Tin Moe
Translated by Win Pe
Jaunary 15th, 2009

 


I wish to fly like a bird
to my lover. But this happens
to be the day when
the hunter is out shooting birds.


I wish to go like a flower
to my lover. But this happens
to be the day when
the sly drone is out spoiling flowers.



I wish to twirl like a leaf
to my lover. But this happens
to be the day when
the mad wind is out plucking leaves.


I wish to shine like a moon
for my lover. But this happens
to be the day when
the earth is eclisping the moon.

But say I can get about
to reach my lover,
I find the door to her bower
shut and the lights out.
