Title: Always Behind on the Road to Eternity

You don't have to leave.

– I have to.

– Why?

– Because I don't want to. There's as much death in me

as there is life in you.

One works faster than the other lingers.

.

I am a poem in half a breath.

Contemplated in the audiogram of poetry,

I crumble between words,

in a meadow rustling with the whisper of rain.

One day I'll sink into the earth,

everything else will remain.

Will you then erase the girl's name from nowhere?

– There's no such option, nor any other.

What's worst about you is special

to me..
