Surprise Me!

Norman Santos - A Jar of Touch

2014-06-11 0 Dailymotion

Your touch
grew inside me
until I am just a jar
of beckoning echoes
reverberating your touch

A jar praying
to faith in memory
dying in the senescent hands
of capitulated sanity

And all the bellows
are kept inside,
and all the sentiments
are kept inside –
a jar full of resentful
unyielding lies.

Norman Santos
