Latidos del mar

Conditioned to contradict, this freedom
Medium of existence which ends us
In a breath. Our greatest catharsis
No understanding, just doing – then not.
Know the creeping ebb of our lifeline
That which purifies is only oneself
What is purity but mastery lost?
When the gulls come seeking, we are but one.

Qué calor hace, incluso con fuegos
artificiales. Imposible!
Gritan, pero es toda la verdad.
El mar de calor
Esconde siempre nuestro dolor
Como una mascara hecho por
La maestra.
Cómo podemos llegar?
Sin destino, no lo sé.

Andar

We walk.
Through breakups and breakdowns,
The rain and the sleet and the hail
And all the things we say we hate
But intimately we love.
For desire to fit in.
But little do we imagine how we all walk,
To the shared pulse of loneliness and isolation.
Never stopping to consider our fellow walkers,
Driven by the chaotic void of life.
Still we walk.

Bound… for where?

To be chained on a vessel
The saddest sight; free to the wind
And the waves, flights of fancy but a trifle
And yet stayed.
Stayed by irrational fear,
That world that we see cowing us
Before our very own eyes.
If the ocean is the size of our hearts,
Then our minds and our fears are that vessel,
And the chains…
Those are our society.
Our defence mechanism against the night.
