untitled

When the mind isn't at ease
the heart becomes heavy
and the conscience away

A heaving of the bosom
can no longer pacify the active mind
and therefore you lose yourself

Ignorance seeds poisonous tongues
Disparagement waters them
and yields to suffering

like cloaks, time drums on and
does it heal? does it cast doubts?

words lose their meaning,
emotions no longer feel
and love, well,
can no longer live
not in this world at least

glances, betraying eyes and masked faces
hollow smiles and even more hollow people
their eyes darken their complexion and reveal what they are.

cavernous spaces resound in emptiness
and silence will deafen them
they will no longer speak their shallow clatter

each mirror has two sides,
one of your image and the other, you
you may do with it as you please

signed,
a downcast soul
