Rorschach Test

Waiting for the song to communicate through us 
because we have learned to be mute

They feel sorry for our souls
lingering around
confused by the hate 
attacked by the loneliness 

Standing I picture the absence
of your pride
of your ego 
walking hand by hand with mine

Illusions of love
The façade masked of collective despair  
For never figuring out how it felt
For never mistaken guilt for pain
 
Isn't weird the monster of frustration ?
We needed each other without any reason

And while the sun kept you hidden  
I dreamt about you chasing cloudy days 

Like a miracle running into my arms
melting that metal heart in front of mine
Reminiscing the melancholy that never existed 

Escapisms and fantasies
our lives in a canvas mirroring Rorschach tests
solely analyzing inkblots of happiness.

I held your sorrow-like aunts running all over my hand.  I tried to squeeze it, but it kept escaping. I was born with the inability to understand anthropomorphisms.  Anita Mendes
