If ever I could tell
how you..you are
I would only have one word to say: absent.
If ever I should describe the sun,
I would describe you, sometimes nice, sometimes too much and sometimes not at all
and most of the time impossible.
If ever I should paint the day
I would start with the night, to paint the darkness
as beautiful as you and the painted day
in tired colors like me
exhausted still waiting for the darkness to embrace me.
If I ever cried again, I would remember
that I have fed you enough with my tears
just to grow your thorns
and this time I will cry with a smile
to feed my own life
which is finally as far away from you as possible.
