And you remember

 

And you remember

A stench of routine misery

A widespread resignation

A condemnation to love in chains

A toothache

And you remember

You ask yourself again

Was your life really SO horrible back then?

Did you prefer tangerines or oranges?

Does the ocean of sadness have a bottom?

And you remember

You close your eyes and you can still see them

Smiling faces, never

Serious people, always

Nobody knows a damn thing

But nobody cares

To know if time is real

And if what we feel

is truly real

Or just another nightmare

from which few awaken

And you remember

And you resolve to be like a flower

Like an insect

Like a dark fish

In a muddy, nameless river

in some jungle

But you still remember
