Sonnet 120
Laijon Liu 20160615
I don't know why I’m
here on Earth
If I dare to ask my
parents for explanation
I’m sure they can’t
offer a proper reason
I guess I’m just
biological cause, culture custom
A thing we not give
a serious thought
Like a sudden death,
or an unplanned pregnancy
A death that
relieves agonies, finally
A birth that brings
tragedies, repeating
Parents give their
children a name
Their countries
print them some passports
The rest they have
to struggle for
To see if they are
really lucky or not
I never make my
child suffer
I try not to make
another woman cry
