I promise to talk
If there is
someone who knows, he must talk!
To tell us why the
Son
has been torn from
His Mother…
And the Brother
from his Brother….
And why guiltless
children?
And timeless old men?
Why?
I can still see
them on spirit and flesh
fluctuating
through the chimney pots
greeting us with a
compassionate smile.
I, still hear
barks and voices
assembling,
frightening, dispersing,
chopping off bonds
of affection:
we won't see them
anymore.
I feel
the shame to be a man!
And the fear to be
alive and to love!
But why
if even Jesus
Christ,
from the Cross,
had already
forgiven us!
Why? Can somebody
tell me why?
Please let talk
those who can, those who want it!
And if you Know, please talk about it.
I promise I will
do it
For not to forget.
