Pessoa - she writes
as lovely as she looked
at one time - still
do you - expect anything from life
she inquired
do you want any - need any - ask any
where's desire left
she asked
I let it go - as I stopped asking - accepted
seclusion - reclusion
a loneliness - that healed
unclosed the depth of existence
of the wind howling
- and of birds soaring
of a dew drop on a hair
- sun on a skin and a tear
I just am - these days anyhow

Inspired by the extraordinary poet Fernando Pessoa, as this beauty is his:
"It is the solitude of the one that has gotten too far in front of his fellow travellers"
