• A word does not say anything
  And at the same time it hides everything
  
  Just as the wind that hides the water
  Like the flowers that mud hides.
  
  A glance does not say anything
  And at the same time it says everything
  Like rain on your face Or an old treasure map
  
  A truth does not say anything
  And at the same time it hides everything
  Like a bonfire that does not go out
  Like a stone that is born dust.
  
  If one day you need me, I will be nothing
  And at the same time I will be everything
  
  Because in your eyes are my wings
  And the shore where I drown.
