Known Not
Known not how long I don’t rejoice ,
I am, therefore, rejoicing today
all day long.
Known not how long I do not sleep,
I am, therefore, sleeping today
all day long.
Known not how long I do not sing
I am, therefore, singing today
all day long.
Known not how long I do not chat
I am, therefore, chatting today
all day long.
Know not how many stories I have forgotten out
I am, therefore, reminiscing all those
all day long.
Known not how long------
I shall tell you
Later on.
