waiting for the dawn

I used to say

‘spring better arrive here soon

just because I wanted to wear my new dress,

just because I wanted to see flowers blooming,

and just because

I was simply tired of the cold weather.

Now, I will say the same thing,

except this time,

I will say

for all those people who are freezing in the darkness

without heat or light.

So spring, you better arrive here soon.
