To you, To me
I was born in a small bowl
filled with tons of the same fish as me
It was too cramped
and I started to become hungry
Then, the bowl was moved
and we were placed into a better house than before
I was split with my family and friends
I was tired and hungry
then, a young boy came in
he started to bang on the new house
there was disaster
the water was splashed this way and that
To you, it's giving me disaster and playing
but to me, it's getting disaster and being in pain
I figured that I was just a toy to these humans
I was a creature, I was alive; but to them, I'm not even alive
To them, It is playing with me
but to me, it is being played with and tortured
I heard stories about the sea
the ocean where we could be free
I heard of the overflowing and delicious food
much much better than the flavorless sandlike food of our's
humans came and go
they can go anywhere they want, I noticed
they didn't have to stay in a small, small tank
and only wonder about other places
Well, To you, it's putting me into a perfect, cozy house
but to me, it's getting put into a prison-like room
what if it's the opposite?
how would you feel, I thought
you never got in disaster or got played with
you never got forced into a prison
you never got pain as I got
because to you, it's giving me pain
but to me, it's getting endless pain and dropping me in hell
ooooh you're good at these poems!
