Silence

Vulpes 1990 (Augustów)

February 24 


• SILENCE •

Silence
How could Thee
Embrace

                     (Me)

Leave!

I don't see
And I don't feel
What I should keep
In my memory

Thy blindeness
Is not a victory
Not even close

           Oh... (Silence)

Let my mind speak
Out loud
My heart scream
So far
My eyes bleed
What I should see?

Answer (me)
Let me close this chapter
And leave

My fails are on me
My darkness
My mandness
And my dreams

Those are real
Imagination let me live
As I feel I should exist
In this world of fear

And madness

What we call: humanity
