A failed moment of truth
A wandering eye to spy
A dead leaf that falls
Cars pass me by
Silent dreams and deafening thought
take up my mind
A frugal thief with a blind eye
to money as a sign
Fortune's loss is an unworthy gain
in life and death
in hell and pain
Dead leaves always fall
after failed silent dreams
Thoughts still deafen
my frugal short dreams
