I remember the days it came so easy
The lines falling into place
With rhymes as sweet as melody
All the pain translated into words
All these tears into lines
What easy days those were.
Many years later
My pain burns silently
Looking for an avenue
But I remember not the language of the pen - the song of the poets
Now, I know blood. Scar after scar to make the voices stop
Slice after slice to make the pain stop
But I feel it. Louder after every cut.
The scars tell of that noise.
Tell me where can I go
What can I do
For this pain to finally stop
