Under the ruins of desire

He might commit suicide.

By Kisama Riyo Published about a year ago 1 min read

Under the ruins of desires I wait

After I was exhausted by longing from travel

I came from the ends of the earth crying

My fate, for humiliation has exhausted me and rain has wet me

Travel has tired me until boredom has awakened me

And thus the sky inspired me, thus said fate

I stand erect and time does not own me

I contemplate fate, for it may commit suicide

Oh spirit of my life when it was divided

Oh my sadness that stole time

Is there a vision that consoles life

Or is this the secret of fate?

I spent the years of my life lost without people

So, oh heart, will a little of people's deception intercede for me?

I cry from the injustice that made life flow like a river

So he hides my tears and arms himself with safety, O light of dawn

This is my calamity, for for years I have been telling it until people got tired of me

And he said: Enough of the sermons of the wise, for the lessons have tired of me

I have opened the ruins of hope, I will not remain waiting

For sadness has stolen my life, for it did not feel me like a flower
