expectation
When do the birds stop singing and the shadows approach
Because I’ve been waiting
And the nightmares do not return under your watchful gaze
Yet the feelings of fear never subside
And my expectations are crushed
Under the weight of your perfect protection
My question is:
Do I want to feel pain
Or am I just needing the attention I receive
When fear takes over
In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.
Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
