The lake

When the night is almost over, she drops randomly, 
folding over and staining the horrors; 
but if you can just get lost next to the lake,
it will sooth you and calm you
until you can no longer breathe.

How beautiful the lights reflected on the water
fooling anyone
And if you want, you can cut it in pieces
It's then that silence throws on the water
the ticking of clocks that are rotting.

Down there you can find that girl, minding her breath and her skirt
As wide and open as floating flowers
She's dancing, she's burning bright, she's feeling
it's not worth it, life is not worth it

Life is still worth it. Nothing stays the same.
