What Puzzles Me
Sergio Pinheiro Lopes
What puzzles me is the truth.
The truth takes friends away
And offends the acquaintances.
It hurts deep, pains the heart,
Mists the eyes, blocks the throat.
The truth comes in a slant,
does not clarify nor illuminates.
The truth assassinates.
The truth are round eyes
gazing at the void.
