All of a Sudden Everything Is Much Easier

it's as light as snow, the steep hill when the sun rises must not move a finger, obedient child, the earth wears its white feathery garment, putrefied by the wet tears, no need to raise up my eyelids, speak, or be silent, when i listen like a newborn wrapped in diapers i let the snow cover my green eyes, when you say: not today. not tomorrow. i don't need to cry, i look at the world smiling and say to myself: what a miracle, what a blessing, i don't have to do anything of those things, i don't even have to expect a breeze, the touch of a ladybug on my hand, and ”never ”, and ”nothing” becomes so much, so much so much lighter than a stone arrow, except, we still see ourselves in the eyes of forgotten children among the flowers even so, everything is much easier, all of a sudden it gets easier, and easier, now, when we are about to get older wise.
