Blunt poem about being let down in life. A bit pessimistic.
Don't Count on Rain in the Desert
Don't Count on Hope without an Effort

don't count on that I will meet your expectations
don't count on that you will meet mine

don't count on anyone
without counting on that
you may be let down

Don't count on a Desert in the Rain
Don't count on a Love without a Pain

don't count on a one-way path
don't count on cheating the math

don't count on the mirror you look before
don't count on ever having more

you'll never have it all
you'll never seek what is in your imagination
you'll never be blown away
like you are after your dreams

If you count on,
then count on feeling let down
