TALKING TO A THOUGHT

It’s difficult to gather yourself from thoughts. And it’s maybe even more difficult to talk to them without having the feeling that you are surrounded by mirrors reflecting different images. Because the thoughts are not related only to the existing things. They are wishes of the present, knitted with memories of the past and hopes for the future. In which of the mirrors should you watch yourself first when sometimes the wishes, hopes and memories seem to replace each other like in a chaotic game with blindfolded eyes?

In one of those mirrors I see someone alone, sitting aside from the crowd and watching how the others’ errors are forgiven again and again, remembering he or she has been driven away from among them for a single mistake. I don’t know if this mirror is a memory… I remember this very weakly, like in a dream, and the one driven away sits there, back facing me, so that I can’t see who he or she is. Could it then be a memory or a fear coming from the mirror of the things not yet happened?

In another mirror I see someone hit and blamed by those whom they had helped… and I know this is the mirror of the memories, no matter how much I would like it not to be….

In one of the mirrors I have seen him as well, in a short glance, so short that I did not have the chance to realize which mirror it was. Could he have really been, has he already passed through my life, is he going to come some day or have I only dreamed of him?

Why are you silent, my thought ?
