My Revelation was false It was not real It was the opposite of real There were no tears My hair didn’t stand on end My eyes simply blinked I looked up and down Nothing changed But I was silent For a while I felt the calm resonance Of a bell A distant bell This isn’t a real revelation
I love nowWhen I’m not in painWhen the air is freshWhen I can say “ahorita”And it might never happenNothing to do but sit or lieWhen no one is callingWhen the screen isn’t onAnd there’s no soundBut the birds

My Revelation
My Revelation was false
It was not real
It was the opposite of real
There were no tears
My hair didn’t stand on end
My eyes simply blinked
I looked up and down
Nothing changed
But I was silent
For a while
I felt the calm resonance
Of a bell
A distant bell
This isn’t a real revelation
