Antarjita

INDELIBLE

The burning ashes of my body 

That rose from deep within,

The pigeons tottering outside my window

Gleaming at the Sun that is burning me.

 

I steal glances at the mantle piece 

As the world goes beyond my eyes deep into darkness 

Deep into the relentless running mill. 

 

The lilies, the tangerines, the beautiful Bougainvillea

Yet I see the monsters flashing their bloody eyes

I see the concrete that scarred me from behind. 

 

The tapestry that I dance to

Under starlight that deceives me 

The humming of the birds

The transient yellow world that slips through the blinding glass 

I see him standing with the door left ajar 

As I slip and fall, humming his favourite songs ear to ear. 

 

It all becomes a big black visage 

Of the man I loved the most 

And the man that led me to my Mirage 

 

The warm ecstasy of flimsy whisperers 

That breaks my sleep at dawn

Since all hell shall break loose 

Let it all be lost within 

For I shall remain defeated to none 

But only to my lover\'s guilt.
