Spiritual

the riddle must be solved
did you take your life
in those fields?
some say no 
the angle of the bullet entry is all wrong
and how did you make it to town with such a wound?
some say yes
the burden on Theo was made clear to you
by Dr Gachet
you must tell me 
this question ravages my sleep
the recurring nightmare has no end
no answer
was it Secretan? 
why do you cover for such trash?

I sit in a theater 
empty 
as our souls are empty
our hearts are dark
you created such beauty
for a world such as this
I watch
as 100 painters paint a 1000 pictures
for you 
but no answer comes
only the question

and then the words 
whether they were truly spoken
from Marguerite does not matter...
'you want to know so much about his death
but what do you know of his life?'

rest in peace 
Vincent
