“You Destroyed Me at Night.” A Poem
A small text on the struggle with sleep to tell the uncertainties and anxieties of the dark
You destroyed me at night
You destroyed me at night You have shaken the darkness You screamed at me for silence
There is a dim light that filters through the shutters There is a Moon playing with people’s eyes
You breathe me in the evening You move in your sleep Kick the blankets You reach out in the shadows
More than a lullaby is the bell of a ring where the minutes pass always even points
Between me and sleep no one is a winner
We look in solidarity: two homeless who don’t know where to go waiting for the dawn
Tomorrow it is a certainty that does not solve our fears
