The Key
by Indiana Pehlivanova



Is that the life, so noisy?
Is that the death, so quiet?
I got lost in the silent noise of the machines
I got lost in the silent noise of people talking
Is that the tear, working hard?
Is that the laughter that never gets tired?
I got lost in words but now I can’t find mine
I forgot my thoughts in the mind of someone else
Is that the child, drinking water?
Is that the adult, eating the sand from a desert?
I forgot them, I looked myself
Me, myself and….
Is that the poet making the truth to a lie?
Is that the boat, floating in the waves?
Is that the space, so secret?
Is that me?
My key is gone, I cannot find it!
