WITHIN THE HEART


The truly man of calm is he
who has a silent turmoil within
his heart.




WORLD ASLEEP


The world is asleep
and often I am one with it

with each millions of eyes closed
and mine shut too :

It is a greater trial to awake
than to make love to your enemy

And evolution cannot touch that soul,
vain with its own busy life,

which does not stop to turn
its silent observation upon itself.




A STRANGER WITHIN


A man who lives on the outside of his skin
forever
is he who dies being a stranger within.
