Elfrida

with love...

There is a light of my life

waiting for me to carry it on.


But, the sorrow of my life

is in the middle of the ocean.

Foundering in the tears of pain.


Stars will start to shine

when the sky becomes dark.

But, the fate of my life still

seems to be dark.


Still, I remember that day.

The day,

which made a white bird

to fall into the red well.


It screamed for help!

They shut its mouth.

It seeks his wings!

They tied its wings.

It weeps in pain!

But, they didn't wipe its tears.


Still,

no one is there for me

to wipe my tears.


I know I'm isolated.

The colors of my life are fading.

But remember,

the faith of my life has not faded.


Cause,

I'm the white bird

one who born to fly in my

own way. Independently!
