Silence
Black Bloom
In a room made of luminous silence
whose walls smell of peace
I dance
Not for the eyes
but for the forgetting of wounds
Black flowers
grow from my fingers
and the earth
with a closed mouth
repeats my name
My dance
is the slow breaking of night’s bones
in the embrace of a light
that still does not know
how painful it can be
And I
in the midst of all this suspicious peace
return to myself
like a dagger
reborn
from the memory of blood.
