One of his dreams
2022 · Poem
It is just enough.
When you get up and see the horizon in front of you,
Someone will give you the signal,
someone who has been waiting for you for a long time,
brown suit with stripes and dark Oxford shoes,
the golden chain around his neck,
a mustache, wearing your perfume
And following you with his eyes
Smiling not at you but at his plan
The signal is a punch to the stomach
And it’s only one word
“Jump”
lips that flicker, uncertain gait, inconsistency,
It seems to be snowing outside, even though there is a dazzling sun hitting your eyes
Your eyes- can not stand the sun,
because they came from afar
and ended up here waiting ironically for the guy in the suit
but now, you do not go back or forward
You, you who is me
I stand with lips like a long, thin line
Eyes glacial, vacant
You once gave me the elusive hope of staying alive
And since then, a lot has happened
and you- which is you-
did not leave a single hair of your head locked in my hand
