Be Patient

Be Patient

 

You never feel alone

When breeze caresses your hands

And leave a message of desert

At your door

 

Be patient,

The wind won’t blow away

Your memories

Written on the walls of your solitude.

 

Be patient

It will rain soon

The birds will wash

Their sorrows

And the river will have a feast

For pebbles, thirsty.

 

Who is going to lament

For the houses

Changed to rubble

And the memories changed to ashes.

 

Let’s be quiet

Words have lost their voices

And me, locked in a land

Without horizon.
