He went to the terrace,
lit his cigarette,
breathed in another hope
as he puffed a mouthful of smoke.
He stooped a little,
whispered about his life like a riddle,
puffed a mouthful of smoke,
as he breathed in another hope.
He stared into the distant sky
recalled how many has already been his countless tries,
breathed in another hope
as he puffed a mouthful of smoke.
He heaved a sigh,
wondered whether he would cry or die,
puffed a mouthful of smoke,
as he breathed in another hope.
He looked down the empty road,
felt it in his heart the heavy load,
breathed in another hope,
as he puffed a mouthful of smoke.
He watched the passing moment,
wondered how his time quickly went,
puffed a mouthful of smoke
as he breathed in another hope.
He stood straight, eyes forwarded,
Said to himself, tired but hopeful, but I am needed
puffed the last mouthful of smoke
breathed one more hope
disposed the cigarette butts
and left the terrace.
