FORGIVENESS

I am invested with the power from above

to get rid of the unfair task of judging.

I prefer to exchange soul cuddles

and now walk the paths

strained frustrations,

and pitiless demands.

There is nothing to forgive!

We are just lost souls

Swimming in circles against the current

Castaways who cling to their old fears

Survivors of magnifiers

The soulless prejudice

My compulsion is mitomania

I'm addicted to mystify, mislead me.

I am a collection of idiosyncrasies,

Myriad of dreams,

cosmic dust emotions.

Rereading asleep poems

On sunny mornings.

I don´t explain, neither justify me!

I only ask you 
accept me as I am!

Don´t  slice me!

Swallow me whole without chewing.

Your teeth tear my fragile being.

Your fierce desire to classify.

Scrunch my nerves.

Submit myself to the ineluctable laws

I am a changing!

Processes and losses.

Freed me from the cocoons.

Detachment me of shells.

I seek refuge.

I expose myself to visitors.
