XXLove letters
When questions were explosives
mining my mind,
You
are not calling,
You
won’t call me,
‘It’s
a meaningless trouble’ you say,
My
telephone number is chewed and half-eaten,
You
forgot half digits,
You
don’t give answers,
You
only ask why,
Answers
exist to spare questions,
You
want them to attack your mind,
Till
they are bored and exhausted,
It
is your self-preservation method,
Surprisingly
it works when you deal with your dangerous past,
Your
fingers have memories of their own,
I
taught them to remember me,
You
want to remember nothing,
It’s
easy to live when we are hollow,
We
know that beauty is why,
It’s
questions,
They
sail in the memories not making sense to anyone who isn’t us,
You
are in the building,
It
looks like an object,
You
keep enjoying a beautiful view,
It
is at the end of the sea,
Up
ahead in the concrete distance,
You
are a maniac,
You
listen out for noises,
The
right sound is stalking the moment,
All
you can hear are humans,
They
live like noisy objects,
You
stop and set yourself free,
It
doesn’t upset you,
You
let yourself think whatever you want,
You
let yourself think how you used to want her,
How
you counted seconds,
Then
seconds became months,
Months
will become decades,
Diamonds
will turn into fine dust,
Explain
me how one phrase became an epigraph to long years of humiliation,
Don’t
talk about cosmogonies,
They
are weakness, debris and rot,
Why
are we always monsters?
When
we want others to think that we are happy,
Cold,
distant, indifferent,
We
neither love nor hurt,
Why
do we overplay?
Tell
me about the simplest,
After
you take the collection from the drawer of your head,
It
has an array of our magic,
Nostalgic
feelings rapidly changing,
Charm
of forbidden flirting,
All
the beautiful moments we had,
You
glance at the clock,
‘It
is ten thirty,
Moreover
it is p.m.
She
must be home,
I’m
thirsty,’
The
telephone rocks the bedside table,
It
has something important to tell.
