JUST A DRAFT

Sometimes there is no meaning
Not what we feel, but this feeling
It's how I feel, how you feel
Knowing it's temporary, one season
Be fleeting, don't be fast
Because the faster the steps
... .... .....

Have you ever heard of an old saying?
" Haste is the enemy of perfection "
But you really achieved
This desired perfection
What's perfect for you?
A pencil to paper, creating, shaping
The shapes, the words, the curves
A simple example
A simple text
A simple sketch
Just a draft
But it's not enough, it's not enough
To be or not to be enough...
Insufficient, unbearable, unfortunately…

What is this bitter feeling?
That I painfully feel
That leaves me constantly
With hate for this world
I'm just a draft
Burn me, erase me, tear me
Contrary to my inner silence
That says: if you hate, everyone hates you
That says: kill yourself, stay away, isolate yourself
We are not perfect... we are just a draft.
