a morte da palavra honesta
sucedeu o solstício de inverno

com a chegada
dos primeiros ventos
abandonada a casa
fechada a porta.

veio julho
desviamos os olhos
mas os espelhos
não mentiriam.

esquecemos os sonhos.
perdemos o caminho.


the death of the honest word
happened right after
winter solstice

the coming of the first wind
a house left behind
a door closed.

it was July
we looked away
mirrors wouldn't lie,
though.

dreams had been forgotten.
the road had been lost.

  1. "Veio julho...esquecemos os sonhos, perdemos o caminho"

    Então que se faça novos sonhos. Ao menos, é o que tento fazer.

  4. You leave us to fill in the story of before the solstice. A great technique.

  8. Dear Kenia

    It was a powerful read... and your lines ...
    'the coming of the first wind
    a house left behind
    a door closed.'
    ... touched me deeply... and then the ending took my breath away... lovely.

    Thanks for joining in the Poetry Potluck WK 43, which I am hosting for the first time, this week. Hope you have enjoyed it and I look forward to seeing you next week too with your lovely poetry...
