That Heavy Water Colored Our Eyes
it's been a while
since your spine broke in half
and pieces of your repsol
spread all over the concrete
then heavy water camouflaged someone's irises
and blinded ours
but I saw you
mended and reposed on that metal sheet
didn't have the strength to kiss you
wouldn't wake you anyway
couldn't even touch you
I just stared in silence
while the storm was howling in my soul
they've lowered your eyelids like a flag on a spear
and that spear tore our roots apart
by order the wall was built around the truth
and over painted by screenplay
even though the story started to peel instantly
couldn't unveil it alone
not for a moment I believed in that planted scenario
it sow a seed
so our roots tore apart
my ribs went shrunken
but I preserved you in the lungs
I'll breathe for you
