“Nao se ouve um ai”

Today.

In these days beyond time,

in the pain that won’t pass,

in this mantle of silence,

To those that have gone, that have left us grieving,

unable to pay last homage with a last embrace,

the last kiss.

They left on their own.

leaving us searching for comfort for this time,

in prayer, exorcism, pain.
