Would you?

“Would you turn off the lights on this nightless night?”

Would you carry my thoughts to nowhereland, and then put me to rest while the ocean sings a peaceful lullaby?

But if I fall, do you already have a net ready to catch me?

Okay, no…

So when we fall apart together, will it be like a parachute? The wind cutting like a blaze, an infinite bundle of clouds and memories of bravery exposed in the sky.

Would you help me stand, even if I do not see you in heaven?

But why, what happened with our sounds? Now the noise is so quiet and all the screams are so silent.

Is it normal when there’s a constant eclipse inside, but the window insists on bringing in the light of a sunny evening?

Have you thought about it?

Have you noticed that our words sometimes get so lost that finding each other requires more than one single app, in fact, more than we can handle.

We all need help, but sometimes it is hard to call. There’s too much rust in the throat and dust in the lungs.

Would you erase your mind to become your own master?

Would you turn off the lights on this nightless night?

Would you breathe inside to bring life back?

Would you sing your favorite song tonight?

Would you pretend we all are safe?

Would you take the pain for me?

Would you heal our wounds?

Would you?
