i cannot write
my mind is darkened
and my lips numbed
i am drowning
falling conciously
in the ocean of emptiness
come to me now
i cannot answer
the riddles of the roses
nor can i lend my ears
to the telltales of the winds
come to me now O
daughters of Mnemosyne
i cannot remember
the good old days
and the tango years
of my youth
