Underworld

Dear G,

you go unspeakable
and I cannot guess
what runs in your chest,

if it is the city sewage
or a river of hot lava.
Will you take me on a tour?

Have I not said it
a thousand times
that I am not afraid of

your underworld?

  1. How hard it is to understand what's deep within another human being. Sometimes maybe we should be afraid, but often the sewage is just a trickle...

  2. 'you go unspeakable'

    This line alone contains many possible interpretations. Yes. It is impossible to know the secret corners of another's soul, but love urges us to try.
