Egovin
In the midst
of the waters
I heard a
voice
I mean a still
small voice
In the cloud
of the sky
I saw a star
whose
brightness
reminds
me about the
transfiguration
In the middle
of the night
I saw a ghost
whose
feeling was
so memorable
At the center
of the
universe
I saw an
eclipse
calling out a
name
Among the
cast a
character
stood agape
another
speaks but
in stream of
consciousness
At the
parliament
I saw chairs
being thrown
suits being
torn
faces being
squished
At the
market
the lads left
their
shops...and
allowed their
eyes to
remain fixed
All these
elements
recognize
you dearie
I tried to hide
my love
for you but
silence
refused
I went to the
dark to keep
it but light
came forth
I entered into
the water to
bury it but it
dried up
I have no
money but
you
I have you
but no money
You are me
I live for you
You live for
me
You are me
and we live
for love
