The ghost of a man

There was a man.
It was the  ghost
of a man.

Pale to extreme ,
repressed,
gloomy and sad.


Didn't look like  a man.
It was a ghost.
But like every haunt,
he saw the light.

Repressions were gone .
The sorrow was gone .
The shades were gone .
Only left pallor.

The ghost was not
another ghost. He
is now a man.


O fantasma de um homem 

Não era um homem . 
Era um fantasma de 
um homem . 

Pálido ao extremo ,
recalcado , 
sombrio e triste . 


Não parecia um homem . 
Era um fantasma . 
Mas , como toda assombração , 
ele viu a luz . 

Foram -se os recalques . 
Foi-se a tristeza . 
Foram-se as sombras . 
Só sobrou a palidez . 

O fantasma não era 
mais um fantasma . Ele 
agora é um homem . 
This poetry describes a ghostly man .
