Greetings from Hell

Published by

on

Your absence is like fire,

burning my heart,

that desperately tries to find you

in the chaos of this world.

Pieces of it are scattered

to the four corners of the horizon,

and a signal,

step by step,

they’re cheerfully tracing.

Finally,

there, in the center,

you’re standing

proudly

smiling devilishly

from the depths

of the underworld.
