HOPE
I would like to take
the paths of new hope
and erase my footprints behind
me because your escort is
superfluous before the rising sun.
I would like to walk
the land of solitude
for years
and walk on
the silence of the
pathlessness liberated
of all your words and
deeds. I would like to be
born again
bathed in purity
of my soul
and stand
in front of the starry sky
as a newborn.
And pardon
my rude words
and be patient
because my loneliness
is your loneliness, too.
You are my other-self.
You do what I m afraid of.

HOMELAND
By the power of love,
relax my wills
and burn the hate
in the root of ancient oaks
from my homeland
because I am not the root
lands of shame.
I do not belong
to a small tradition.
With the power of love
to silence
and be a grain of wheat
among the vast fields
of my plains.
To Be strong
in the childhood
and don’t go further
of what one think to want.
