about

when the sun was about the sleep,
i went to sleep too,
and when i was sleeping cold and quiet,
then the sound of a sob woke me up...
it was a beautiful black bird who came to sit on my window,
it saw me sleeping,
it heard me snoring,
then it cried.
it told me to always have optimistic expectations,
even if the outputs are always the most pessimistic of all...
and suddenly, it left.
i woke up and i wasn't sure if was either a dream
or if actually happened...
so i decided to make a song.
