How an empty room breathes
when the one you love is gone?
It breathes with the echo of what was not said.
How does light bend?
in the corners of memory?
It bends where the gaze cannot reach.
How words grow
when you forget them?
They grow up in the silence of those who betrayed them.
How to break the silence
without being heard?
It breaks when someone feels it more strongly than the sound.
How a look weighs down
more than a thousand bodies?
When he carries within him all the truth he was afraid to tell.
How does a dream fade away?
when you haven't stopped touching it?
It only fades when it ceases to be watered with hope.
How can time bear to carry us?
when we can't even lift ourselves?
It endures because it is made of the power of patience.
How an absence is woven
in empty sheets?
It weaves like a shadow within the folds of necessity.
How the night drips
through closed eyes?
It drips when the soul seeks refuge in dreams.
How a smile
Could it be hiding a sadness deeper than the sea?
He hides when he has learned to wear the mask of light.
How the soil remembers
everything that the sky forgets?
It remembers because it hosts what the sky forgets.
How a moment becomes a wound,
becomes a song,
Is there silence?
When you love her until it hurts.
How the heart hides
behind indifferent words and yet it strikes
like a war drum?
It hits harder every time it falls silent.
How nothing becomes everything
when you have nothing left?
Everything becomes possible when all else is lost and only love remains.
How to silence the soul
when it still burns in its ashes?
It does not remain silent, it burns so that it can be reborn,
and remember again what it's like to love.
