The Transformation

Sweet words were just sugar-coated gumdrops

The clouds you see are far away, I console myself, only the rain will touch you...

Sweet words were just sugar-coated gumdrops;

yes, those gumdrops — lemon, orange, mango — that you read in stories...

Later, when you take a look at what unfortunately remains, maybe, there, you'll find love —

as bruises, fractures, unhealed wounds...

Alas, unless you see noble pain first!
