EVANESCENCE


And now here I am, at the crossroads –
An absurd dead end.

Silence is breathing right to my side,
Lying down heavily,
Panting as after a long, tiresome ride.

Here is the edge of the day,
The margin of the abyss –
One step,
Just one step forward…
Will I wake up?

Silence, please stay
And help me unfold the gloomy chimeras
Who so innocently have been playing
With the branches of light
That so many times have bent over us,
Letting us pick their fruit.

Starving for a new beginning,
Dying inside to find
The beginning of the end,
I search for you.

Where? Now I have no idea.
Fretting through chaos,
Losing the conscience of time,
I am here and nowhere,
Dead and alive at the same time,
I wander like an immortal soul
Through your mortal and limited time.

The night is dying inside me,
As space writhes in between too many borders;
The path is too narrow –
And the evanescence is drawing near…
