What Does The Cat Purr In Your Ear?

 

Puzzles

 

Do you know how a telephone sounds?

 

 

In a house that feels alone,

 

 

 Like a challenge, court sentence,

 

Like threatening silence,

 

Like a deadly message from another world,

 

Like something that would go wrong,

 

 I turned the place upside down,

 

Trying to find the telephone voice,

 

An irritating and frightening sound,

 

I was very fast,

 

 I couldn’t locate the source,

 

There was still the cat,

 

I had drawn on the wall,

 

It had a human face,

 

It was the way I used to see beasts,

 

‘Where are you?’ I cried,

 

I was angry,

 

I was obsessed,

 

There wasn’t a beam of light,

 

 When everything went dark,

 

I was stroking the cold wall,

 

What happened next?

 

I don’t remember,

 

I guess I continued to live and to love,

 

I’m still alive,

 

I’m still in love with a ghost,

 

If those bastards have left me to live,

 

Then the angel of death will too,

 

It will fly by ignoring me,

 

Mocking me,

 

As if death was never true,

 

‘Now you know my story',

 

‘Nobody still doesn’t know the end',

 

‘The only thing I know,

 

It is the deadliest sin,

 

It is the death penalty verdict,

 

Living my death without hers,

 

I am afraid of living forever,

 

I don’t know why,

 

When it’s spring evening,

 

The sky and the stars feel pretty,

 

A gentle breeze touches my face,

 

Why do I want to cry?

 

I bury yesterday every morning,

 

I celebrate that it’s finally gone,

 

It’s gone forever,

 

It feeds my hope that every second I die,

 

Why do I want to cry?’

 

‘You have a mazed mind,

 

Wonder thoughts hide in its darkness,

 

When we live long puzzled lives,

 

One day we turn into puzzles,

 

It is the most familiar feeling,

 

You want to say something,

 

Instead you say something else,

 

Why do we shed tears?

 

There is so much pain, suffering, grief,

 

The Earth was created this way,

 

We shouldn’t feel very sorry when it’s our turn to leave’.
