To be a pilot or not to be
A life in between existence and the nothing to be
When day a man said ‘to be or not to be’
I said ‘to be is not the issue neither be is the frame’
I spent a lot doing something that could make me smile
I drive with no car in the blanket road of sorrow
I came back to my first destination, with hope and will
No one confirmed to me how I reach my home again
Nothing tries to pull the hill so I may walk again
That is the time when the moon is far away
And the sky is not more than a glass roof
If you look you will see the real face of you
But don’t be happy too much as the mirror is fake
Meanwhile, a journey that does not reach an end
A person like me has to wander and refresh his soul
He may search for an animal or a plant he lived inside before
A life in between existence and the nothing to be
When every lion sees the forest as small and no other to see
I curved my memories and dig in the hard mindset
At the nowhere, there is the no deal or hearing
Hard, hard, and no way my dear universe
Tell the sun, tell the moon, and the sky
I am the pilot who couldn’t fly
And the reason is not clear to me
Neither the journey is the way I want
Let us try again to be or not to be
