Triste son las palabras - tres -

By Spiritus_Frumenti

It has taken me so long to understand,
The meaning of these wounds on my hands
That stretch to the very edge of my fingertips
Where I now hold this pen
-
Why has it forgotten me?
If I created nothing, if I created dreams
If I have done everything to be this empty?
-
Is it possible to give birth to a non-existence
To an intangible being fabricated out of despair,
Crafting its misery to perfection over the years,
Until it has begun to form me,
Until I have become the emptiness
And
Its reflection...?

    Your crazy man, spinning words into worlds, for you anything is possible, with your pen you create beauty unparralelled...Fill yourself with beauty...It is both a projection and a reflection...
