Before or afterwards?

The strict eye of the sun

Stood above the city

It’s rays balanced on the walls and

The shadows slap from the lime

 

The sky poured from its dome and

Blended into the wide sea,

Drawing a light blue circle around and beyond

The immobility of the rock

 

We began our secret course

On the burning curbs

Behind the closed shutters

And the backyard doors of the people

On the crossroad of Time

Thirsty as we were

We turned on the street of life

Behind the limits of Non-Existence

 

The sky divided from the sea

And we sang

The sun started moving

And we counted the seasons

The night came with the stars

And we loved

 

It was before or afterwards when we died?
