Wait, wait
my dear
Wait, as I lay
open my wounds
For they
carry the way to my soul still
Way, which I
seized, closed long ago
And yet when
you knocked
Moments lay
still
As if they
would burst open
And let blood
run down
As if they
were waiting
For you to sink
in
To make you drown
beneath
The skin,
which still hanged
At the edge
of wounds, for
They are the
one who reminds me
Of being
alive
Come, don’t
be afraid
Sink in, Lie
still, and breathe
For I do not
breathe any more
Show me,
show me please
How do you
inhale and exhale
Oh! So long
For I have
been lost and wandering
As if a
walking dead
Oh dear!
Alas! Such misery
For I know
not
How to keep
myself awake
Despite having
you beside
Pity! Though
I should
I feel an
urge
To go back
to sleep
To go back
behind the shadow
Of my wounds
For I feel
tired
And yet, you
being here
Let me ask
Will you stay?
Will you get
lost along with me?
In the
darkness inside me, forever
For I wish
to wake-up
Never again.
