    Backwards
    I don't feel any blood
    Running through my veins;

    The pleasure is so embracing that
    I could get rid of myself.

    There are no more tears running down from my eyes;
    Even in sweet times,
    I can be dishonest with my life.

    I do not try to catch the fire with my fingers;
    My soul would be so weak
    If the heat burns me up.

    I will never die among plastic sirens;
    I have wandered centuries ago to know that,

    Love can be twisted
    If we drink up from the wrong cup,

    And a kiss can be betrayed
    If we don't learn how to observe
    With our heart.

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
