Comme J'ai Vieilli Poem by Reva Kern

Comme J'ai Vieilli

C'était il y a longtemps.
Mais c'était là alors,
Devant moi,
Brillant comme un soleil -
Mon rêve.
Et puis le mur s'est levé
Lève lentement,
Lentement,
Entre moi et mon rêve.
Lève jusqu'à ce qu'il ait touché le ciel -
Le mur.
Ombre.
Je suis noir.
Je me couche dans l'ombre
Ne plus la lumière de mon rêve
Avant moi,
Au dessus de moi,
Seulement le mur épais.
Seulement l'ombre.
Mes mains.
