You know,
you’re always the one to listen...
Your words,
when they came as whispers...
You know, you really do give me strength
in your fractured fragility...
Once,
I heard you sing...
They said I was born as a teardrop
to evade your grasp...
You told me she died peacefully -
With her lips slightly stretched...
For a reason I can't explain,
I was always so afraid...
It came,
hushed and shy...
When we traced together
the dusty contours of memories...
your whisper (when it made the sky quiver)
was like a lonely dancer...
You held each raindrop,
with its shy, flickering shine...
I tried
to paint the sun and realised...
