At school, at night

 Meu segundo poema (também em inglês), escrito em outro lampejo de inspiração, durante uma noite fria e silenciosa, na escola.

 

At school, at night

 

A dark corridor

In deep silence

The wind blows through an open window

Tells how much it scares

 

The spooky air

In deep silence

The fear floats and strikes you by the back

Eyes in both directions

 

There in the woods

Outside in the dark

I see shadows jumping and crawling the outer walls

My breath is gone

 

In a dark corridor

In deep silence

The stupidest noise drives me crazy of fear

No boy is brave here

 

It's just school

My mind tells

But the shadows, cold, noises and the frightening dark

Distrust my mind's own words.
