Timid thoughts quietly approaching the stream,
they fall in the water-coasting beautifully.
Sliding down the gushing waters - carried to the bank.
Stored with thoughts from day to death,
fishermen cast lines - stealing memories;
memories hoping to rest.
Gorging on the captive nutrients;
within the stolen happiness.
Why must they take pleasant sights?
Please, take away those awful nights.
It's unchangeable, the bait won't tempt sorrow;
all joy of yesterday will be fished tomorrow.
Oh fishers, won't you leave this stream -
won't you fish away from me?
And when the fish have been lured,
and the joyous memories devoured by man;
all which remains are the memories suffocating on the sand.
