MARCUS FERREIRA: MY MICROCOSMOS
Poems
Memory
If I see,
If I play,
If it's bleak,
Sweep it away.
If it's bright,
Let it remain,
If it's overwhelming,
Grant a brief refrain.
If I yearn for their return,
Can they be retrieved?
For when I depart this earth,
My memories may be deceived.
May they endure, vibrant and true,
Unbound by the limits of time's review.
The essence of art, profound and vast,
Where every soul's echo is cast.
If I see,
If I play,
Let them linger,
Don't let them fray.
Notes
"The backstage of every successful performance holds not only gears but also the tears of joy from each updated version of yourself, ready to make history"
