That Is All That I Really Wanted
the path today is dusty
slowly, i walk and you pass by
on the same direction
you walk past me like you are in a rush for something
you're fast that is what you want to tell me
i do not really mind for you do not exist at all
i am thinking of pebbles. They are unmoved.
They are faceless. They are saying more important things
than your speed, your fast paced conclusions,
you think that you are as high as a cliff, and unreachable by the worm
you are wrong, i may have been drifting like a cloud
i gather rain and then i feed all that thirst on the earth
i vanish soon leaving no mark. That is all that i really wanted.
