Mommy

But Mommy cannot see. And Daddy cannot hear. They left when you left, and all I hear now is my own silent cry.

Oh, Sister Havisham, he’d whisper. If only he could turn his face in the direction where her soul was waiting. And stay.

There’s an Invisible Thread and no human can defeat its will.

Sper că ne mai întâlnim. Pentru că deja îți simt absența.
Ne vedem azi? Ieri? Mâine? Hai să ne întâlnim pentru totdeauna.

You chose to hide under the cloth of a distant friendship. Except she wasn’t your friend, and you didn’t own the ship.

Se cutremură munții, iar ceasurile stau în loc de-o săptămână, căci Timpul refuză să mai fie martor la alte marșuri funerare.

Her soul was hollow
her voice gone
– as a Sun
in a post-apocalyptic script.

Îmi tace-ntr-o tăcere de ploaie:
o tăcere de gheață.
o tăcere violentă

I am the Torture Artist of that Living Soul of mine.

‘I feel like co-existing in an Other space: a world of Nothingness. Oh, sweet Absurdity!’
