Let it not announce
A new day
A new way
I live like a pale leaf
And I want to die the same way
Silent
Lonely
And withered
I repeat the images
I repeat my words
I repeat my life
To live it from the beginning
This time promising
To love you better
Love you more
I make a clean start
Fresh like the red wound
And as I start to heel ahead
I fall into a pattern
I think for this hundredth time
The pattern is new
At least the colors
And I believe in the difference
I try to tenderly cultivate it
But I never was like you
And so I forget the beginning
And get lost in the whirlpool
Of thoughts, lives, and loves
I discover towards the end
That I have unwontedly
Lived the very same life
With the very same lies
So I sleep never to wake up
Into a new beginning
Into a new rehearsal
And try to keep company
The remembrances that
I left on the lonely sea shore
And a red rose dipped in acid…

I am so so so happy when u say that. However, the a line of yours lingers at the back of my head, at times "i am flattering". whatever it is, i m happy
