\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Make your birthplace unverifiable<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Your surface silence.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Specific insides are arrogant everywhere.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Inspire humanity in an Eastern \"Tao Te Ching\".<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Manipulating thoughts, the hand gestures of reality are self-evident<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Muscular men<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 The power of will transcends history<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Betrayed by worldliness and malice<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Humanity encompasses your existence through the physical body<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0To comfort a life of inaction.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0And in fact, you have a skilled hand at horsemanship<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Behind the passage of time<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0People see you as being high and mighty<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Humans are deeply mired in it<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Self-designed shackles make it impossible for your followers to extricate themselves.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0And you remain supreme, exalted<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Like a foolish and tyrannical ruler.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Like flying animals<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 you subconsciously<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Flying among humans<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Gigantic wings, gaunt head<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Humans infected with your plague<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Become narrow-minded<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0In the realm of a philosophical proposition<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Open gun and hidden arrow<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Father and son turn against each other.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Love is sold at the stroke of midnight.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Nocturnal flying objects<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Mysterious black-clad bat<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Under the bright sun<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 No one can recognize your physique<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Desire Intertwined with Love (A Collection of Poems 3)<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 People enshrine love as the ultimate beauty.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 So you weave in<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0You don't believe in crystals and disdain roses.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Black claws through the root of love<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Touch an imaginary crisis<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Love appears in the image of an angel.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 And you surround it with the aura of a witch<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Your face changes often.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Slipping through the air, tangible and intangible scents<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0For years, people have followed the signs you've left behind.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 From the countryside to the civilized city.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Clumsy behavior that is extremely consistent<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 In your predatory customs<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Humans seem to share your joys and sorrows.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 The price of betrayal is twice as heavy as the paleness of life.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0And love still cannot escape your hostile sword.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Some people join the war for this.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Some people relapse under your gaze.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 A beautiful soul, classic love<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Cannot withstand internal destruction<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Extreme violence<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Breakthrough slow-paced romance<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Through the changes of dynasties, people saw you<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Above the palace of emotions<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 I alone abide by it.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 The drive of will is irreplaceable.<\/p>\n
