Rodrigo Geoffroy
In the corner of a world I live.
The corner is right by my side.
I watch, I see all that happens.
Frozen, still I am!
I say nothing, I do nothing.
Speechless living, sacrifice…
I don’t dare even stand up.
Even say may name,
If I have it?
Am I out of the mad world?
Am I out of their world?
They just stare at me while they cross my way.
They greet me, obligation…
I’m merely someone (object almost).
There should come a relief, when I die,
As soft as old shoes out of a stone.
As small as this world’s little buddy.
As silent as an unknown one…
