Expectation ...
Por: Pedro Paulo Costa
I don't have
expectation
to live for 90 years,
But, I want to live.
with caution...
I hope old age
don't be heavy,
I don't worry
with the future...
I don't create
fantasies,
I don't fear disappointments
I'm calloused,
I remain silent
I balance myself in reason,
I don't wait
nothing from anyone,
I am at peace...
I want to grow old,
and fill your chest
of joy,
I love art and poetry
I learned from the days,
that the biggest frustration
in life,
is to wait
a lot of people,
I don't usually
chase the wind...
I don't want to be
a traveler
looking for the light,
in the darkness
in the middle of the storm,
I hate looking
back,
the past
is a ghost,
love is the weapon
what do I use,
and it's the only word
what I try to say,
I don't want
mend patchwork,
life is short
I won't waste time,
and get kicked
life is fleeting,
and we discover
who doesn't know anything,
anything can happen
including nothing...
I don't want to dream
hopeless,
I want to wait
with hope...
The expectation
does not sprout in the ground,
dream big
creates disillusionment,
that leaves a scar
in the soul...
I wanted to say
a phrase from the poet
Gibran...
That our
sons and daughters
They are not ours...
They are
the lust of life
for living...
The inheritance of the parents
are the children,
you can't
create expectations
for them
but, you can plant
in their hearts.
the seed of love
and love is eternal...
It is eternal and divine...
It's forever!...
