I wrote words of suffering
And made verses od longing and pain
Nothing was there but disgrace
Eternal was the feeling of grief
And just short while ago i realized
That same feeling would be there
For the rest of my life
I was born to feel that way
Because i will live as a poet
Just as the master used to say
"Poetry is just wet paper".

To the only man who could read his poetry Jaime Sabines (Mexican poet)
