letter #4
Agnė Juodvalkytė - April Shore, 2025


September 26
today the sky told me
that tomorrow would be beautiful.
I believed it.
___
but when I woke up, it was already dawn.
I realised I had overslept.
___
how many moments have I missed with open eyes?
how many fragments of feelings remain there - in dreams - ?
December 16
today I told the sky:
- from now on, I'll learn not to sleep
and collect my feelings.
___
but it advised me to stop and not to be afraid to fall asleep,
because I might grow tired and can forget how to breathe.
___
the third time we met on March 6, i no longer remember which year.
it stroked my head,
and I dreamed.
I was no longer afraid.
