10410 - Some words

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Angeliki Papadopoulou

Some words
are sometimes enough
to understand
that the other is thinking of you
not only superficially
but with the soul’s depth
therefore don’t pay attention
to the words only
but to their existence;
because in absence of relation
they wouldn’t have been written
by your other self.
It is for these details
that we live like humans
and sacrifice ourselves as monsters.
