For once I will say it to you:
“Never judge a book by its cover
nor judging a silent stream against
the noisy, have waves
for you do not know the nature
of the subject you are judging for.”
Don’t give judgment to something
that makes your first impression: just
like the stream in front of us
You thought it was shallow
because the water runs silently
You thought that the stream was
peaceful, a paradise,
a gem, a life-saver
Yet you did not know the
reason of its existence
You keep on insisting that the stream
is safe to swim without knowing
the real mystery covers it.
Now look at you, lying peacefully
on a precious, deathly crib
beneath the decaying tomb
Your world has just lost
in one snap—because of your
misjudgment that this stream was safe
Too late to realize that
silent water runs deep
Now our worlds apart and it is
because of the silent stream
in front of us.
