Even when we’ll be freed from death
We’ll need to find a path and venture into it
We’ll need to run to catch our desires
To caress another human’s experience
We’ll need every day to be a story
We’ll need to create life
Hour after hour.
Even when we’ll have all the money we could possibly need
Time will be there waiting for us
Like a never-ending cave
Where we fall down deep as into
A black hole of lost and found identities.
Down the road while fulfilling my plot
I’ll come across the memories you treasure,
Try to grab onto them as if they were my own
So try to stop the whirling of the mind
Just for a moment
My friend
And let’s meet in this directionless run:
Maybe we can spare some minutes to dine together
Or stop our river flowing for a kiss.
