I share with you a poem I wrote when I was 16 years old.
The original poem is in Portuguese language. Perhaps it makes sense to some of you.
"It is preferable to live in isolation, away from the world
Regretting every second lost with words
Thrown like stones at this dying body of mine
I'm not unsympathetic but apathetic
In an almost fanatical expression of emotional lethargy
My lunatic mind sways in a whirlwind of calculations
Who predict what others don't see
Anticipating the only possible ending: the end of this despicable life !!"
