Silent Remedy

You will find him dirty and tattered at the bottom of a trench

Trembling and tired, clung to his opium

The burst hate doesn’t speak to his heart anymore

Yet overwhelmed by terror and remorse

And he has no time for his memories

Nor voice to weep his mistakes

In the depth of never ending night

Lonely and mad he runs away embracing the steel of death

She wept for long that night away from him

And the blood of her son is on their hands

The world dimmed and turned upside down

Hiding her shame and her pain uselessly

And the tears got lost in that moment

She dreams her son grown up and strong

And she’s smiling beautiful with no veil

The sun of those days lost in time

The warm wind, his favorite horse

But he has no time for the memories, buried in the mud

Nor voice to weep for his mistakes

Fading away without a trace

No witness to the indignation, only the silence

She wept for long that night away from him

And the blood of her son is on their hands

The world dimmed and turned upside down

Hiding her shame and her pain uselessly

And the tears got lost in that moment

Only the silence
