With A Thirsty Voice Poem by Marieta Maglas

With a thirsty voice
I said:
'You're no more my universe.'
' Nevermore! '
Replied the raven
Instead of you.
I said
'You're no more
My blessing and my curse.'
And
'Nevermore! '
Replied the raven
Instead of you.
Your silence is
A broken statue
In midnight taper.

Love has traces of rust
And trickling tears
No one can save
Our illusions.
I can digest all my waking dreams.

Above us, there is a sky
Swallowing its clouds
Bellow us, there is a planet
Closing its burial ground.
