Proto-Balm

Proto-Balm

Saw my light on and all others off.

Saw my time entering the time of others.

Searched for you while

tending the dreams of others.

During my youth, I made sure

someone would see me coming from the war.

I hated those who made me believe

that "we" had discovered the world together

when only I suffered.

Who goes through the pain like

a mother feels the same or more?

I do not think so.

A man leaves his life and comes to me,

takes the floor, smells it, tastes it, relishes it.

I tell him, how beautiful a man he is

like all men that don't believe in anything.

He says, how necessary you are,

a man who needs to believe in everything.
