Notes About The Poem

 

Death of Desire

Yesterday is tomorrow
Today the solace
Rebirth
Another grey moment of nothingness
Everlasting anguish
Birds chant in quiet acquiescence
They have faith in tomorrows wind
I have faith only in burnt drawings
They hold the secrets to nowhere
Ashes to the wind
My hopes to the sea
Drowning will be
Such a pleasure




Where please tell, was the treasure?
X=Love Y= is the question
The island flies away with the birds
Equations no longer balance
Armies of emptiness have conquered
All

Promises forsaken in the heart mistaken. The pictures are amazingly beautiful. Truth is not a lie. Peace. :)
