To those Who Are Gone by Miriam Costa

To those Who Are Gone by Miriam Costa

Are others the world?
Angels are always deaf?
——- Untie the opposite knot.
Love feels the impulse while
I dilute myself right at the beginning…..

Are others the world?
Angels are always deaf?
In the sea the salty tears
Circular reflections blinded by the years
Carnations and notes on the stamp

Two hearts that became a train.

His shirt had butterflies and his eyes were
———- a tropical «frost».
Mouth in blood, tongue – Styrofoam.

Blue hair.
It was in the newspaper
Robbery and shooting on the corner.
What kind of rogue were you?
A dead man, stupid drunk with a black cat!

——-And the sky above says goodbye with no kisses.
