Knitting Longing

Trials are gems

While suffering is the gold

If // you had independence over from you

-

Which call is louder?

Praise when grateful //

Or // moans for help

-

Aren't you tired of entertaining yourself?

I like crowds

But // in the end // I'm only friends with silence

-

There's // a room for knitting longing

The space where I // rest all tired

The space where I // always meet you

-

If everyone // throws away suffering, // sorrow, // and all his friends

Maybe it's just me // who's willing to accompany them

Because maybe // I'm // already dead

-

And, don't come near me // because the dead have no heart // to think about other people's views and even the world

Dead people // will only leave scars, sorrow, and pain

When love is the only way to do it

-

If I approach you, run.
