Lorenz

Double game

I have constantly push you away .

You bring back memories of smells

that I no longer want to see .

And those faces whose music is inaudible.

I must fight against this seduction 

inspiring me  a forbidden gestures symphony.

I lost the key to the attic where antiques lie dormant.

And my liberty remains locked away ...

Seaweed deposited by the tide

covered old letters ,whose shipwrecked worlds 

have eroded ...

 Once,I cried ,but it was because 

 the rain was getting me wet ...

And then I chanted the magic spell 

to forget .

What happened to those stories 

you used to tell me,making me believe

they were meant for me ?

You know ,I\'m not a child anymore,

even if the plant never grew !

 I don\'t respond to the messages

that you dress up in poetic extravagance

and insolent inconstancies ! 

Your style was that of a decadent bourgeois

disguised as a punk .

 That\'s why I recognized you .

 Sometimes you come back to me

without having ever left .

 Voyager frozen in the time ship .

who never boarded the Titanic ...

 On the foggy quay I find you again

like a familiar avatar .

 Far from you, could I still dream ?

  My other self .

  My faithful  double game ...
