BEFORE SILENCE

This frost that I’ve accepted

slowly spreads

inside and out;

from my naked mountain

over the crowding of bodies and sentiments

gaining the total I wished,

seeing only the forest

I die for a tree, a face.

I don’t know anymore

whether I chose loneliness

or you have imposed it upon me.

As the frost spreads

I don’t humble myself

to ask for your help.
