take my arms

here! take my arms, they're all i have for you
to bring my warmth and love into this time of need
just these small hands so bare and cold and few
the hands unable still to conquer or to feed

i cannot bring you land n'or wisdom i'm too weak
so judging me by deeds or words would be the same
i am too young to fight and maybe even speak
the only thing to laugh about would be my game

this silly borrowed game time has no wish to play
a game of funny voices and shiny words to fade
no match for such a wound which deepens by the day
no cure for such a sorrow so it shall bring no aid

all that my limbs can lift are burdens off the heart
i only shorten nights for i have more to lose
it might come very soon the day we'll grow apart
but until then you show me the color of your bruise

now put my pen away and burn this foolish line
but lay your head on this left shoulder yet to grow
and in this night we have make all your sorrows mine
i may not understand but i will surely know

and maybe years to pass deep burriend in the clay
i'll find my pen and write the stroies you once said
thus keeping you alive my long unpractised way
before i go to rest forever with the dead





tot Ancăi.

sunt o papusa de lemn

exist dar nu sunt. tu nu ma vezi inca
vezi masca aceasta batuta-n piroane
sub care incearca cu greu sa nu planga
baiatul ce-si cauta trupul cu foame

sunt o papusa de lemn si ma tem
ca oricat as vrea sa fiu altcumva
voi fi la sfarsit asa peticit
ca nu voi parea nimic altceva

decat o alta papusa, din carpa,
facuta-n adins sa nu se supuna
gonita, fugara, diforma, batrana,
cu gandul la viata lasata in urma

cu ochii ce nu ma vedeau mai demult
cu ochii ce nu intelegeau ce mai sunt
privi vei cercand sa gasesti vechiul trup
in care ardeam dorind sa il rup

se joaca si rade in hohot destinul
si bate din palme si-adoarme in final
ecoul ramane si intrece suspinul
durerii acestui actor principal
