Why is white the light and black the dark?
Why is Yin the night and Yang the sun?
Why Yes is positive and No is negative?
Such a small word, and I've unspoken it so many time,
forgot about it in so many ways,
the No could have been my enlightment
on some days...
So I´m goind to write it down,
On this blank canvas,
And on this skin that reppeled
In silence,
In fear,
Or in doubt,
Dark memories that healed,
In the lie of
IMACULATION.
I´m going to leave this black mark...
On the top of my leg
It will be there,
So I know if I want or not to go;
At the beggining of my chest,
Is now part of my breath;
On the left side,
of my body,
the heart side of me.
I´ll keep it small,
but use it grandly,
like a warrior uses his shield,
or his streght wisely,
Or a bird uses his wings,
to be free.
This No is either to stop
Or to move On.
Is at the same time crude,
and delicacy,
Nothing and Everything.
This No,
Is a Yes to me.
