Analysis of Poem to replace my sadness



for you it's a simple poem for me it's like a  restitution

of some breaths

as if I owed to  the world something other than

those crumbs of sadness

a miracle happened

a twinkle lost little by little but

I know the blind can't see me

so I can play with my life again

look, people are putting on their masks again

the curtain slowly lifted, hot mouths  with so much laughter

they will meet again for the morning coffee

only god a  spectator to their bitter roll

how can I have more of myself

I wonder and I remember a lot
from the war
