who wants to remember life
for whom do the birds sing
when there's snow on the ground?
for whom do the waves roll
when there's no one watching?
I remember once
when the ocean laid smooth like an eye
I threw a rock towards a descending sun
I saw the circles grow
until the sun was gone
I've heard that circles on the water
grow forever
that they are like butterflies and actions
when it comes to life
I hope this isn't true
I want silence
30000 feet deep
a darkness never-ending
definite
I don't want to remember
neither life
nor death
I don't want to wake up somewhere
see another sun rise
even if the grass there is golden green
even if we're happy leaves
floating calmly on a lava river
made solely for us
all dreams fulfilled
I think one life is enough.
