Hunger strikes on its own last breath
No spine to shiver, no heart talks
At life’s craving poverty mocks

Every morning
before the birds start
trilling me their stories,
I give birth to a new love
through my same old heart
when a lake’s placidity
finds life in the swans breath
Only for you...

And every rock could become a stone

When soul sees dead flesh leaving the bone

If I die today, will you remember me tomorrow?
The love I'm leaving behind, will you care to borrow?

In all living and the dead I'll dwell to groan
