LA PETITE MORT [ English]
LA PETITE MORT
[English]
I feel my life force begin to weaken
a flickering flame on a candle
and my spirit resists a surrender
to an undetermined disconnect
not of its knowing.
my mind is clear to what
my heart will not see...
and my soul sorrows
for the pity of it all.

I know pain
it can drive you insane.
Devoid of comfort,
forced to face the hurt.
You wait for it to end,
its a matter of when
but it stretched forever
and ever and ever..
