The wind is changing. If I start shouting, It only attracts Those who can't tolerate A humble human pulse. They’ll come, taking away my calm. I will be forced to fight at the wrong time I can, after all, silently feel compassion. Decisions flow each day From the breathing mind The water is wasted for soulless tools, Not for thirsty, dry eyes. Then a sarcastic ambiguity Touched my body And an unpleasant shiver Ran under my skin, So cold, So emotionless, As if this muck wanted to melt My stubborn intuition. I can’t erase my feelings, So, I turn my soul inside To dive beyond this reality, Not to betray what I believe: My unyielding, simple sincerity With myself.

Between False Prudence and Loud Naïveté
The wind is changing. If I start shouting, It only attracts Those who can't tolerate A humble human pulse. They’ll come, taking away my calm. I will be forced to fight at the wrong time I can, after all, silently feel compassion. Decisions flow each day From the breathing mind The water is wasted for soulless tools, Not for thirsty, dry eyes. Then a sarcastic ambiguity Touched my body And an unpleasant shiver Ran under my skin, So cold, So emotionless, As if this muck wanted to melt My stubborn intuition. I can’t erase my feelings, So, I turn my soul inside To dive beyond this reality, Not to betray what I believe: My unyielding, simple sincerity With myself.
