Just Futility... Poem by Adilson Pinto

Let it die... Let it die... It only will survive
If it is real and deep and worthy to exist...
If not it will decline, Ah! It will decline
Until it comes to disappear in the horizon line...
Let it die... Let it die... Who will cry for it?
Who will remember that a day it was here?
It is like a smoke, don't you see?
It is like the passing wind: it always goes away!
Fix your eyes in what you can touch (as the stones!)
Build your house on solid principles
If you wanna behold it in the ending of your life...
Let it die... listen to me: let it die and it will die
By itself so fragile it is: no one must invest his soul
In that which disappears in the context of the Eternity...
