A blue room
Divided in spring and north
The shadows of your smile, low light,
The curly braces of the cigarette smoke besieges
Love is a country without chief
The wait rains in my bed
Why did you build walls for me
if I’m uninhabited?
If we glued our palms, would the life-lines also stick?
The city was left
The life moved on Mars
All the people I could love are gone with you
All the children that you were carrying in your eyes, are gone too
All the sorrowful fruits of which I was crushing my lips in February
The hills made scars, it was drought on the coast and on my ribs
And I have to learn to walk on tiptoe not my bruises to be heard
The skin is not wise
I wonder:
if we glued our palms, would the life-lines also stick?
