Shameless


Sixteen years old for ever

My soul

Sends light rays - embracing webs

Like two projectors

Through my eyes

With its heavy diopters

Disregarding my faded look

Peeps beyond my oldish curtain

Sucking shameless

From this richness 

 

When this ray reaches you

You shrink and retreat

Like a skunk

Blowing to the air

A painful look

Disgusting

Awakening
