What do you hear at night?

Atualizado: 27 de jul. de 2022

the night you won't remember



There is a voice

That keeps saying every day

You shouldn’t give up

though life is short, it can also be long enough

and you should learn from mistakes


There is a voice

It tells you every morning

To wake up

It ain’t the same sun after sun

once your eyes are open, nor

the same moon when you fall asleep


This voice is repetitive

Like the ordinary sequence of nature

It travels through the light into our stubborn ears

That voice

Wanna teach you the simplest things

which your young heart refuse to comprehend


and as time and will grow older

the sound of that voice becomes a whisper

forgotten

like salty sea waves on our skins after a lonely night from yesterday


There is a voice

that keeps asking you

hour after hour

what does wish

this tired heart?


I ask you dear God:

discipline me

in the language of the birds

enlighten me in what

the breeze gossip

to the leaves


There is a voice

That keeps telling you every night

To dream and remember you only die once

It asks what life was if wasn’t for the waves, for the sound

For your favourite song

For the words?

You will carry on today,

Tomorrow and always, until

the last silent night
