This

Welcome to my today.

the door is ajar,

you can come in 

and take a sit.

there is a special shadow

in that corner waiting

for you.

will you feel comfortable

if we all keep our eyes closed?

maybe we should forget

all concepts and start from

infinite.

maybe.

i know the voices 

inside you head are

numb:

you won't hurt anybody

but silence itself.

(yes, i know)

but whenever i think of you

red detailed words fall at my feet

and your mother bends

over us crying for acceptance.

i understand her heartbeat.

can't understand mine though.

it is strange to be in front of you

and see less than we all should.

your life aches.

our fears also ache 

and we are not prepared yet.

(no, we aren't)

(not now)

can you come back next week?

i'm sure we will have devoured

the how-tos by the time

your monsters attack the mango trees.

will you become what you can be?

what can i do for you

as the sun crosses the table?

forgive me i am too small

for big things.

the voices inside my head shout too.

no one can listen to them

but you.
