yihuai ying
Poems by yihuai ying : 123 / 207
poverty gained
poverty gained
because of its right
because of the once lacking
because of it's reasonable
and that's her bad fate
arising from own strife
my dad doesn't say it mistakenly
now I understand
from my grandfather
my mind shaped
from my grandmother
my temper shortened
from my mother
I'm weakened
from my father
my illness derived
arms cut
feet handicapped
and how to explain
my careless bold way
that lead me to this fate?
