There is no direction in this orientation of the world

that my soul can take.

The shadow has nothing more to cling to

nor nails to scratch with.

It implodes on itself

within its eye of darkness.

Walls of mirror reflect now

a new wonder of light.

All is smooth, flattened and glossy

so nothing can cling to the past.

The old weighs too much and unbalanced

falls back.

Only a wind of rebirth can arise

and go beyond. Because it is light,

empty of words and memories.

It blows warmly without misting

the new way with fear and vertigo.

Everything remains limpid, clear and silent

while I emerge from the tunnel.

I am out!
