i don’t understand

 

i don’t understand
these flashes of your
faces near my imagination
flashes of you and the past
that has never been repeated

i don’t understand
all these remembrance
when all i see are the many
faces of your ghosts
phantoms that stay inside me

i try to understand
when all comprehending
are exhausted to nothing
but remembering again and
again until i don’t see myself

i don’t understand
but keeps me seeing you
everywhere and all the walls
talk to me like you’re there
but there you aren’t
