END


At night, the noisy voices
gather in the large room
The wounding silence is busy
The walls, the windows,
the white bed linen
Demand of me to tell
What I know
The more they close in
and slowly get closer to me
Investigating, clarifying,
are not ashamed to reveal
I start talking
I reveal nearly all of it
I laugh and then I cry
I understand it is the end

It is already here
Waiting for me
Not scared, it is so pure
Doesn’t need to ask me anymore
I will break the barriers
The ones I have built up with my own hands
The end is here
I will take it to me
I will be ok
I will be ok at the end
Maybe

It frightens me to think
About unjustified distresses
which didn’t leave me for a minute
This didn’t let me say good bye
I was allowed to love
only for a few moments
Then they came back closer to me
and did not allow closeness
I found shelter in the rooms
and the silence
To escape
I can’t find another place
They listen to my voice,
they were my refuge
Today I know,
I learnt to speak then

It is already………..
