Treasure

Damaso

We're the same

but made of different fog

 

We touch each other with borrowed gestures

as if love were

a bottomless chest

left on the sidewalk

full of keys

without doors

 

We guard each other with forgetfulness

and we keep each other

like coins

that are of no use in this world.

    Great lines in this poem that like an arrow to the heart meet their mark. The whole last stanza was marvelous. A definite Fave

        Thank you so much,Mister, for your kind words. I\'m glad they touched your emotions. My heart tied to my tongue betrays me between the words. Best regards.
