I was watching him as he was staring into nothingness

Like in the old times

Ages have passed since I last saw him

The masquerade was sleeping in his thoughts

And the image he had in mind

Was long gone

I’ve asked him : Fool , thee,

My teacher , I’ve long deserted you

And today I search for delivery in your answer

Please do tell me , how do you know a woman?

The woman...you don’ t get to know her

You just invent

And create and model her

After the face and resembling of the butterflies you have in mind

You will not get to know her

Not even after she would have gotten underneath your skin

You will not know her

Not even when she would lose her breath into your arms

Nor will you know her

When she would cry

Or she would laugh

You will know her only in the emptiness of your soul

When she would not be there anymore

That bitter taste

When dreams fail

This is the closest imagine of a woman
