Poetry

Peycho Kanev

The massless particle
which passes through vacuum
without encountering any resistance at all,
does not differ from the one
that does not pass at all

Loneliness is self-sufficient,
as they say and,
etc. . . .

You’re the last dark matter
from another outgoing night

but why don’t you come with me, why
don’t you come in me

to see that there’s nothing
harder than
forgiveness

there’s nothing

harder

I will fall asleep now just to wake up
in your life—

We’ll not remember how we die,
just as we don’t remember our birth.
