Alone now
Monday, April 4, 2011
I take a step back ... I stagger.
2:45 AM
There is no pain at this moment
only the tormented silence of this vast space,
of this misunderstood loneliness.
There will be no more sunrises in our lives ...
Just like the chimeras that we desire,
and like the afflictions we hate
were born from what's dead of our souls.
Dead are our hearts,
incinerated by the flames they once loved!
The earth will kiss our bodies
welcoming our last breaths ...
Only in this moment that we hold on
can we recognize our past.
A feeling floats in the morning haze ...
For an instant its shape is recognizable ...
And between the coldness of our bodies without passion,
fades and dies.
For the agony of not being animals
our hand can take the initiative
and trace a strip of suns
where fear is greater than our hopelessness.
A gag on the soul
a knot in the throat and ...
Only the clouds that contemplate us
can know the dark of our history.
The breeze carries our laments
more in the depths of our emptiness
something urges us not to give up yet.
Today the black storm clouds
will not be a promise of life,
and lost childhoods will not be restored.
On the precipice of our abandonment
nor the thick forest of yesteryear
nor the cold current of the years
may prevent our last blind step ...
Our body shudders against something infinite,
something that does not listen to explanations.
I can see the waves hitting the rocks!
I take a step back ... I stagger.
The pounding of the waves is so vigorous ...
A strange calm invades me ...
Where fear and anguish abounded
now the white foam highlights everything;
where hatred and insecurity lived,
now the breeze softens everything ...
Only the rays of the Sun, which give us life
can know the beauty of our death.
For Miguel Ángel Villegas,
with love, from his father.

May my death be fruitful. And force the meditation. So that those who can, learn the lesson.
From the suicide letter of Miguel Ángel Quevedo. Cuban Editor, Shot himself while living in exile in Venezuela.
We were all guilty. Everyone. By action or omission. Old and young. Rich and poor. Black and white. Honored and thieves. Virtuous and sinners. Of course, we still had to learn the incredible and bitter lesson: that the most "virtuous" and the most "honored" were the poor.
I die disgusted. Alone. Outlaw. Exiled. And betrayed and abandoned by friends to whom I generously gave my moral and financial support in very difficult days. [...] All dehumanized and cold abandoned me in "the fall".
May my death be fruitful. And force the meditation. So that those who can, learn the lesson. [...]And for the people to reconsider and repudiate those spokesmen of hatred, whose fruits we have seen could not be more bitter.
We were a people blinded by hate. And we were all victims of that blindness. Our sins weighed more than our virtues. We forgot Nuñez de Arce when he said:
"When people forget their virtues, it's a tyrant in its own vices."
