Am I? (An original poem)

in #poetry6 years ago

Am I?

Am I?
what am I,
doing?
I write because I'm already out of words
to be spoken

already out of breath
that the souls feeds,
already out of courage
to distinguish the regrets,
understand the reason

already missing of myself,
why?

coward,
liar,
betrayed me
to myself,
of this pain
no one will know

I write because now I don't know why
why do I write?
crooked lines, naive!
how could they express
the void that inhabits no longer?

dark,
dark,
dark.

all so
dark,
dissolving matter

you, omen
unscathed!
wish you die
and take me with you

Eu sou?

Eu sou?
o que sou,
fazendo?
escrevo pois já faltam-me palavras
para serem ditas

já me falta alento
que a alma se alimenta.
já me falta coragem
para discernir os remorsos,
entender o porquê

já me falto em mim,
por quê?

covarde,
mentiroso,
traí-me
a mim próprio,
dessa dor
ninguém saberá

escrevo pois já não sei por quê
por que escrevo?
linhas tortas, ingênuas!
como poderiam imprimir
o vazio que já não mais habita?

negro,
negro,
negro.

tudo tão
negro,
matéria a se desfazer

tu, agouro
incólume!
desejo que morras
e leve-me contigo
